Shhhhh! Don't flare up GAF conservatism!

Bald Space Marines would make this game awesome. Rate it M so they can curse at you when you screw up. Negative reinforcement FTW!

 

[BatiGOOOOOOL]

This game should be on PS3. The Chad Warden's of the world need it.

 

[PkunkFury]

Not sure why GAF has such an aversion to games that incorporate educational concepts. If every game we played taught us something or another, this forum would rival MENSA

Man, you two are always going at it, aren't you?

Now there's something I can get behind.

 

[Mrbob]

The future of Wii exclusives!

This is too funny.

Until it sells 10 million copies and we get copycat games.

Nooooz.

 

[mj1108]

....and watch this thing outsell every PS3 game. :lol :lol

Oh the tears...the sweet bitter fanboy tears.... cry babies...cry!

One game constitutes a direction confirmed. When Mario's Time Machine came out, I couldn't believe that they still decided to release Chrono Trigger, Super Metroid, Final Fantasy VI, and Donkey Kong Country. Honestly, what were they thinking? It was already obvious that gaming was headed in a new direction.

I don't know, I wouldn't like to be in front of or behind Chad Warden.

If Brain Age had sold what Mario's Time Machine did we wouldn't be seeing "games" like this, that's the difference. If you think this is one game or an isolated incident then you really haven't been paying attention, especially in Japan.

 

[Monk]

WOuldnt this game be more suited to the DS? Talk about stupid. Unless they are using gestures to make the letters etc then this is gonna flop big time.

EDIT: Oh this is also on ds and has connectivity. MILLION SELLER CONFIRMED!

My point was that it doesn't diminish the number or quality of games that suit the so-called hardcore like yourself, so relax.

Yeah, but even after Brain Training the DS still got (just to name a few):
-New Super Mario Bros.
-Elite Beat Agents
-Pokémon Diamond (and Pearl)

Along with others and coming soon a few like Zelda: Phantom Hourglass, Dragon Quest IX, etc...

So is not like developers stopped making those "normal" games.

 

[Nuclear Muffin]

I think people are missing something significant here, it`s the 1st 3rd party Wii game to support the DS-Wii linkup! Looks like DS support is now avaliable in the Wii SDK, it`s a good sign for support for the linkup, especially at this early a stage in the Wii`s life!

 

[A Link to the Past]

I like to think of it as a cheap way to fund other projects.

'Cause it is. And that's probably why this game exists.

Will it work? Who knows.

 

[Ramenman]

Sorry I'm late but :

:lol
This is like a slap in the face to Wii owners.

What ?

So one more non-game comes out on Wii and it's a "slap in the face" ?


Or was there some kind of megaton around the next Ubi title on Wii ? If so I'm sorry I missed it.

*is worried to look at the other pages*

 

[Tieno]

So far these "specifically made for Wii" games don't impress me at all, but then again these are the sort of games I expect on Wii. I'd much rather play Jade Raymond's Assassin's Creed, thank you Ubisoft.

 

[JDSN]

Im not understating this "They'll use this to fund their killer-apps" kind logic at all. If this shit sells well (and im sure it wont) developers are gonna shift their resources to make more non-games like this one.

 

[Krowley]

I agree to a certain extent, but these are the kinds of games that boosted the DS install base and eventually led to a hardcore software explosion...

There are also more interesting things like rygar and soul calibur legends that have been announced recently, so it's not strictly casual oriented stuff.

 

[BrodiemanTTR]

God dammit, now I can't not read it as "My word, Coach...".

 

[Mr. Pointy]

I can spell well enough. Although I'd like to buy a copy of this for everyone who ****ing misspells 'lose' as 'loose'.

 

[_Alkaline_]

I'm disappointed by the number of complaints in this thread. Sure, it's not going to be an epic AAA title, but it DOES show that Ubisoft still have some idea of what type of games to create on the system. They started well with RRR and Red Steel but let themselves down with horrific ports like Far Cry and Blazing Angels. It's nice to see them take a leaf out of Nintendo's and EA's book for once.

 

[Magicpaint]

I hope this sells well! :lol

 

[Borys]

nvm

because that's what all next-gen games are nowadays?

give me a ****ing break.

Don't you get it? Two can play the game. Much as the trolls here want to believe this is what Nintendo's vision for gaming is all about, people can easily fall back on that equally' lame' argument too for 'next-gen'!

 

[turk128]

I so want a naked Monica Bellucci killing comunist zombies game now.

can the wii render monica bellucci in real-time?

 

[M3d10n]

Wait. First GAF complains that no 3rd party gets Nintendo's ideas. Then GAF complains when a 3rd party actually does try to capitalize on that, because the game obviously doesn't suit their tastes?

 

[Sharp]

Nintendo's only "vision" for gaming involves lots and lots of green.

 

[Merovingian]

Anyone who is happy with this game, or looking forward to it....

:lol :lol :lol :lol

i am actually anticipating this title, so there would be no harm if nintendo's vision for gaming would be all about titles like this one.

Then I'm sorry to say that it doesn't. But there'll be enough titles to satiate your interactive learning lust, I'm sure.

 

[Zerodoppler]

This is Ubisoft, their games are supposed to be shit.

 

[titiklabingapat]

Since we're judging an entire gen based on one game...yes.

If it were something like 'Words of the Dead', GAF will go oh-so-awesome. I did

Looks like you need some My Word Coach!

 

[Souldriver]

OMG THE GRAPHICS THIS GAME LOOKS AWSOME INSTANT BUY!

 

[Fio]

It is a software.

 

[Chû Totoro]

Looks like i'm french.
Wanna try some french with me ?

:lol Woops sorry about that.

Get French Training.

 

[Ranger X]

Just like the 360 isn't just shooters and bald marines, the Wii isn't just non-traditionnal types of games.
Funny to read all the fuss when there's such game coming out for Wii. There's tons of "normal" games on Wii too. Go cry elsewhere or go play your bald marines, i don't see the use of complaining when you don't like X game on X console. Common.

 

[Chû Totoro]

:lol Woops sorry about that.

I know being french is hard but i can live with it
My english is not perfect but most of the new words i learned in GAF are STFU, OMGNOZ, IIRC, QFT, O REALY, LMAO... :/

Don't know if i can use them in "real" life :lol

 

[R0nn]

Welp! At least it's better than another minigame compilation.

 

[Kilrogg]

You are absolutely right.

Plus, this mistake is made by foreigners as well nowadays. I'm French, and I swear: every-****ing-time someone wants to use the verb "lose", he or she misspells it. So annoying. A few years ago I didn't notice that mistake.
