just made top of my want list.

I just posted a comment about that right here. This is a sweet looking game which will almost make me buy a Wii.

When Though? When Can I play?

Too bad I sold my Wii.

Yes. Yes yes yes yes yes. Aaand yes.

No More Heroes, King Story, and now this? MMV are the best thing going for the Wii right now, third party wise.

GOBBLE DE GOOK D=

Christ almighty thats gorgeus! This, along with No More Heroes and NiGHTS are the current sole reasons I want a Wii.

I am dumbstruck that people still say that the Wii's "novelty wears off quickly." There's just so much that's completely ridiculous about that sentiment.

I mean, think about a steak. The first few bites, amazing. Once your pallete becomes accustomed to the flavor, it isn't quite so much. But it's still a steak, it's still delicious and, although you might not want more right away, you know that a good steak is always worth coming back to.

Taking the first three delicious bites and dismissing steak altogether after the first time you're even slightly underwhelmed is just plain silly.

Meh, the DS had the same initial hurdles to get over. Great potential, crappy designers. Instead of the lovely mechanic of "GRIND STYLUS INTO SCREEN!!! BLOW INTO MIC LIKE HURRICANE!!!" we just need to get past "FLAIL LIKE IMBECILE!!! PUNCH CAT IN FACE!!!"

These are delicious ninjas. I must try them.

I really want to play it and it looks crazy, thus it probably won't make it to the US :(

Very pretty!

If this doesn't come out in the states. I'll kill! :O

RAWR DESTRUCTION!

lol everyone gets excited over nothing. we saw nothing that could mean this game plays well

chad seems to have mastered mind control

ooh wow yay a gorgeous 2d platformer!

@merc: I would like to subscribe to your newsletter. Where do I send my money?

Those who didn't keep there Wii's long enough lack patience, I'm sorry (still your choice, mind). Be you casual or hardcore, if you know Nintendo DS or bothered researching (not everyones cup of tea), you'd know that even when the DS hit the U.S, it took roughly nine months until the sweet games began to arrive. Things get better within a year of launch.

I understand how you feel, when there's a drought of games. Wii is now coming out of its drought period, with more developers (smaller ones especially) figuring out what they are gonna make for it. I don't have a Wii yet, but if I can I intend to get one by this year.

Wii has games but a lot of them we'll never see officially, and of those officially selected some good ones are selected but usually accompanied by plenty of bad filler product (some licensed, some Nintendo clones) masked as Wii games. Developers and publishers are playing a part in this, as many of them have no idea what to develop for Wii and DS. Because they have taken so long standing on the shore, many have missed the boat.

Bravo to Vanillaware, the creators of this beautiful little game. Such a small developer, producing something so lovely, is testament perhaps that Wii developers indeed do not need huge budgets to make appealing titles. All it takes is a lot of imagination, heart and passion. I find this quite amazing, when big wigs of the industry struggle to create for Wii and DS.

Perhaps this is why its a good thing to own a second console along side Wii or DS, so when things slow down, you still have other stuff to play. You need more faith in your purchases, people. Rome wasn't built in a day, neither was Wii and games for it.

What? They plan on calling it Oboromuramasayoutouden? Oh, whew, nevermind, that's just the working title.

Why is it iffy Rainbowblack? With how well the Wii is doing worldwide, it's pretty much guaranteed to come here.

This generation really needs more 2D action games.

No, I did get sick of the Wii as a console. The novelty wore off for me as I stated previously. The console is based around motion, and I did not enjoy them as much as I thought I would have. I sold the console to make my money back while I could and now a person who wanted a Wii has one.

I never thought, or said I thought that the games released now would indicate what the games 5 years from now will play like. I did however say that the controls, the novelty of them, wore off quickly for me. Having tried the Wii for couple of months first hand I can honestly state that the Wii doesn't do it for me. I would much rather use a traditional controller. I don't understand why that is so hard for you to comprehend.

As for you last sentence, I do not look forward to any new Wii games. That is my opinion - therefore I stated it, not too hard to make sense of. I do not want to play Mario Galaxies, or Smash Brothers, or Mario Kart. I could care less about any new Zelda game. My most favorite series Resident Evil is a rail shooter. I do not like rail shooters. Will they come out with a more traditional Resident Evil game? Possibly, but it's not confirmed and even if one comes out I'll have Resident Evil 5 to enjoy on my 360 or PS3. Based on these facts I was able to determine that the Wii is not a console for me.

Understand?

this just *might* be the game to make me get a Wii. however, if they do something stupid with the controls i'll be a sad panda.

That looks kinda beautiful.

Looks great - some sections the gameplay parts of the video reminded me of the original nes ninja gaiden, just with teh Odin Sphere-style graphics
