HEAPS of Puchi Copter Wii screens!

Oh dear, so this game has low end PS2 graphics, and the most atrociously cute name I have seen for a good long time, I mean come on, Puchi Copter? May as well call it Cuchi Wuchi Puchi Copter for christs sake.
Looking better than a shovelware POS by 505 isn't something to brag about.
Day One, No really, if they make this fun I don't care about the name/graphics, I like flying about in toy aircraft (So much so me and a friend are investing in a quite expensive RC plane next month), so this appeals to me, so please, make it to the UK, somehow.

Oh yeah, 505 also released that one.
The entire game is about collecting stars in a house that consists of about five rooms, it's complete arse. In fact, it makes me angry, angry on the internet!

Are you being serious? It DOES look like crap. As I said before, it looks like a 1999 Dreamcast game:
1999 - Dreamcast - Toy Commander
2007 - Wii - Petit Copter
Does that look like an 8 year gap to you?

Somehow the trees seem to look ok, but the helicopter itself looks like they didn't use more than 5 polygons on it.

graphics aside, flying small helicopters or jets in a home environment is always fun.
Lobster said:
No it's not. You do realize that Arc System Works turned publisher right? They got sick of just making Guilty Gear retunes every other year, so they decided to get into publishing shovelware for the DS and Wii. Real gems like Hoshigami DS.
Oh and, enjoy your Xbox360 Guilty Gear 2 made of fail and lulz.

Everybody's a comedian, seems like.
I'll just be happy to have a cute helicopter flight sim with semi-realistic controls. This is one of my favorite subgenres, when it's done right. Just give me environments to explore, good controls, and parts to upgrade.
PS2 Radio Helicopter II/Simple 2000 series: The Helicopter was pretty fun, if terrible in its own little ways. The PSX game was good, too, even if it could literally be finished in an hour.
But hey, who cares about gameplay when you've got a console agenda to riff on?

Speaking of shovelware.... it seems the developers of this Puchi Copter game isn't even the original Aqua System.... it's Sonic Powered! All Sonic Powered has done is release cellphone games.... great resume.

What's wrong with having a full game based around something that GTA used as a minigame once?besada said:
Are you saying that flight sims, taxi sims, racing games, etc,. are all worthless now because GTA included a simplified form of the same thing?

Nintendo should just make a Chibi Robo for Wii and incorporate some awesome Chibi flying shit.

WTF? I've been here at GAF for a while now, but that's perhaps the furthest I've seen someone stretch to try and score points...

I'm saying that it's a tiny niche of a game with moderately bad graphics that looks less interesting and less pretty than a Dreamcast era game. I'm saying that I'd rather set my feet on fire than pay full game price for what amounts to Mr. Mosquito without the sexually questionable content. I'm saying that this game looks like a piece of flying hairy ass, and the people comparing it to a sim copter game are delusional because you're going to be flying it with the Wiimote, not a yoke and pedals.
Just so we're clear on my opinion of the game.

Wow, look at that, Wii is a real powerhouse.
Seriously though, I kinda like the idea. But it would be nicer with, you know, something that doesn't look ten years old.

Looks like something i'd refuse to pay $5 for on XBLA.

What, your post is a troll attempt? I think the game looks fantastic

I refused to pay $10 for that Mad Tracks POS on XBLA (especially after the fantastic Gripshift PSN), but even that looked tons better than this. Having said that, the Xbox 1 also had its fair share of retail shovelware. Let's not forget Pulse Racer:
It's seriously getting old.Mashing said:
It was funny for games with shockingly bad graphics (for the system) like Frame City Killer (made doubly funny by ACCOMPLISHED) and Cruisin', it was funny for hilariously bad shovelware like Ultimate Duck Hunting, and it was funny for stupid ripoff crap like Real Play.
But it's not funny whenever you take every plain licensed or budgetware title that looks the definition of mediocre. It kinda kills the joke. :/
