Needs to see a release outside of the wii because I'm dying to play it, but my wii is twilight hacked for region free, and therefore I'm between a rock and hard place = I have a bunch of stored wii points in limbo that can't be used because my wii won't allow me back into the wii store unless I upgrade and disable the hack.

Not going to happen unfortunately. :x

This game looks brilliant tho (UK magazine purveyors may be aware Gamestm awarded it a whopping 9/10)

I guess it's good for a couple immature laughs but don't look too fun.

oh wow the game turned into a porn Qix in that beach screenshot. I guess. I'd be amazed if the background was FMV or something though.

I bought this and played through it with my fiancee. It's actually a lot of fun (definitely worth the low price), but it's very short and has little replay value.

The jokes are hit and miss, but more hits than misses. There's a comedian (don't know if it's a famous one or just a garden-variety comic with a Kansai-ben accent) who comments on the game as you play through, usually complaining about how things in the game are cheap or don't make sense.

At 500 (or was it 600?) Wii points it was great, if it were 800 -maybe- at 1000 probably not.
