This game could be good. Looks... interesting, at least.
I'd also like if someone could translate what the deformed Birdo is saying.
Bascially Birdo aka Katherine was just introducing the game and the characters and talking crap:D

thnx Mister, you are truly a Hero.

Kinda reminds me of Viewtiful Joe in some surface aspects....doesn't seem much like an N game, aside from the ro-bear-burble language, but hey, maybe that's not a bad thing? New IP at least!

edit: Taste the Rainbow?

Each Nintendo character has a minigame based on which game they've appeared in, and you need to beat them to proceed to the next minigame
It was meant as a joke, can't believe people actually wants this though..

That's what Wii owners really need : new IP with minigames !!!
 
Nintendo does have new IPs but half of them never leave Japan and most aren't developed internally. "We're Fossil Diggers" comes to mind as a recently released one. (even not counting all the edutaintment stuff)

Skip has done Giftpia and Chibi-Robo, so if it's by them it'll be another new IP to their count.

Where do the Skip comments come from? just based on style this reminds me alot more of Tingle RPG than Chibi-Robo. I say Vanpool!!!

The artstyle, the gibberish talking that is mashed together VAing, the fact that Skip hasn't been doing anything since Chibi-Robo DS.

WTF?!

This game is so bizarre I can't believe it's real. I mean, some parts of the video look like a DS game, while other show totally awesome moments. I don't know what to do out of it. Is this really by Skip or it's all just speculation?

listen to the mad man
This actually was discovered a long time ago (logo+trademark filing),. It's unfortunate that the actual product is so stupid looking.

The thing is, when people said "Why's Birdo in this" I thought they'd mean a Birdo look-a-like. Same with the Wario Land Shake Saria Song thing. But lol.

In the video you can see a dishpan falling onto the main character's head, just like in Chibi Robo; if it isn't Skip, I'll eat my hat.

If all DLC came tied to $13 figurines, I'd consider all DLC to be free

He's a pretty swell guy in my books anyway.
WTF? :lol It looks like one of those games that will never make NA, just be released in JP and maybe EU. Can't say I'd be too sad about it either.

Yeah, this just feels like Skip. It made me think of Giftpia. I remember seeing some stuff on that game years back and laughing my ass off. Hadn't even thought about it in years, but watching this just made me think, "Man, this totally reminds me of that game, what was it called? Giftpia!"
