But it has SOLD OUT.

Hopefully my copy that I ordered online isn't one of the things that'll have to wait for a second batch. They already had Carnival Games backordered when I put in my order for that...


So

Ninja bread Man > Halo 3? We already knew Ninja bread Man was more original!

Why? The more money there is tobe made, the better. I just hope that third party publishers and developers rise to the occasion.

The sun, for sorrow, will not show his head:
Go hence, to have more talk of these sad things;
Some shall be pardon'd, and some punished:
For never was a story of more woe
Than this of Sega and her Mashiro.

I guess.

I just see it differently than you. I see a terrible looking game being the first of many once third parties realize that crap will sell.

I know I'm being harsh for a game that I have yet to play, but anyone can see that the art style is blocky and bland; the textures are murky; and the animation is anything but smooth. The only thing that looks like it took more than a day to create was the Ninja Breadman (which I must confess,  is pretty cool looking).

I just don't want to see the flood gates for third-party sludge ruin the trend that Wii games are starting to have (and that is each one controls more solid than the last).

Yeah, I know no one's expecting this game to satiate their hunger for great third-party titles, but its success means that the ingredients are already there. Even if they're small, no-name, budget, third-party developers and publishers, as long as they're hungry, there'll be room at the table.

I played this about a year and a half-ish ago on PS2, I win. It's well worth your money.

Really.

Seriously!

Buy it instead of Mario Galaxy.

Do it.

Fred Meyer had Ninja Bread Man on sale last week for $14.99, but unfortunately they were all sold out.
