Last time we posted about Pokemon Park Wii: Pikachu's Great Adventure, there was some confusion about if the game would come to retail or a be WiiWare title. If it was a WiiWare title, then the game's 1st gen-Gamecube quality graphics would be understandable. If it was was a retail game, then yeah, it should probably look better different. Though it's sometimes easy to forget, the Wii is technically more powerful than the Gamecube, and Pokemon is one of Nintendo's most important and successful franchises. The last Pokemon game on the Wii didn't look amazing, but it definitely seemed more visually polished than Pokemon Park Wii: Pikachu's Great Adventure.
If the game is fun, then yeah, I'll buy it. Portions of No More Heroes looked no better than Shenmue did on the Dreamcast, but that didn't stop NMH from becoming one of my favorite games ever made. Still, one has to wonder why Nintendo treats their console Pokemon games like red-headed stepchildren .

If it has red-headed stepchildren I might have to reconsider.
I don't care about Pokemon either. Aren't you glad I shared, Gavin?
I know PPL was just a Panel De Pon game, but I still got it and blew hours of time away on it with my college roommate when we got tired of Goldeneye.
It's the only N64 game I've bought on VC. Just because Pokemon Snap is that awesome.
The graphics, however, didn't annoy me as much. I'm probably the only one on this boat, but it reminds me a lot the anime. I don't know how it looks today, but it used to have this bland, almost pastel pallette that made things very easy to the eye.
Mind you, I'm not saying it looks good. I just think it's reasonably in-character. My official counter-point:the new Dragon Ball games for PS3 and X360. I find them to look great, but those graphics just don't FEEL Dragon Ball anymore.
@ender_x:High five!
I would do it with joy, but I need a Nintendo Wii.
I realized that there's no fucking way I would have bought a game about Pokemon at a Pokemon Park. Pokemon are cool, but Pokemon playing at a Pokemon Park sounds like a game geared at 7 year old kids.
Marvel Vs. Capcom 2 for PS3 had a retail box: yet it was a downloadable game. Wheres the real confirmation from a non-link dump website?
I could care less if it is a real retail Wii title, I just don't see how boxart = confirmation.
I still want an official announcement, damnit! Get on it Famitsu...
I remember reading once that Nintendo had said the Wii was the same hardware as the Gamecube, and they were downplaying that it wasn't really their next-gen console so much as their ds for the gameboy. Just waggle controls and bigger disc for more memory. ;o
You still need to play Demon's Souls man!
And yes, I do need to play Demon Souls. And Uncharted 2.
