Title: Cooking Mama
Post by: vudu on February 02, 2006, 09:29:34 AM
I just saw a bunch of screen shots for a cooking game called Cooking Mama over at gamesarefun.com.  I'd never heard of this game before, but it looks really cool.

Cooking Mama looks to take you through all the stages of cooking, from selecting and preparing the ingredients to presentation at the dinner table.
I have a hard time believing Bill isn't crapping his pants over this game.  At least he would be.  If he were wearing any.

While its chances of localization aren't so hot, we can still hope, can't we?

You people need to show this game some love.

Cool! It would be cool if they made a cooking game with a "story", kind of like Trauma Center was an operation game but with a stroy to entice gameplay and be fun at it.

Great realistic situations/objectives, like your sweety comes home from work with a client or executive for dinner and neglected to tell you...  

TWENTY MINUTES... GO!

I just got the game today. Besides being born of pure evil and hellfire, it's kind of neat.

Did you get the US version? Does it include recipes or teach you how to cook in 'real life', or is it all just a game?

I have the import version, which means I don't understand half of what I'm doing. Regardless, it boils down to the game being WarioWare with food.

Why am I just now finding this thread?

"I have a hard time believing Bill isn't crapping his pants over this game. At least he would be. If he were wearing any."

Because yes, I lust for cooking games...I will be getting this for sure!  (And I also lust for some sort of Wii cooking game, too!)

but then you would have to clean up afterwards, where as in the game you just turn the game off, can't turn real life off, that is short of suicide.

The game looks like a blast, and I can't wait to get my hands on it. I hope the recipes are indeed real, because I do enjoy to cook from time to time and it would be great to learn some new ones!

Cooking Mama came out today, did anybody pick it up? At $19.99 it seems like a great deal, I'm just curious to know how the localization went and if it's still a pretty decent game.

If anyone is interested, I picked up Cooking Mama today and it is very cool. Warioware-esque and very fun. Seems like it could get tedious, but has replay value in the ability to score better each time you play a new recipe. For $19.99, if you can find it, it seems like a decent investment.

Kairon, I live in Rochester, NY a fairly large area, I drove to nearly every store within reasonable distance and it took me all night to find the game ... the day after it came out. I probably went to about 9 or so stores before picking up the very last copy in the area.

Sounds like we have the next Phoenix Wright on our hands. And this time it's Majesco who's reaping the benefit.

Wow thanks for the heads up, I seen it today at a local supercenter called Fred Meyer, they had two copies and I didn't get them since I was getting other things (Like Lost and Tales from the Crypt season 2). But I guess I better hop to it and get it today!

The games got potential but it'd be much better without constantly bombarding us with menus and medals.

Oh, and apparently the game sold/shipped about 170k in North America! Read it here!
