Ok, that's a bit...different. Hope this gets all of the "new IP" people to shut their pie holes for a little while.

Thoughts?

Okay I had no idea what was going on in that trailer, but colour me intrigued.

Miyamoto's new IP confirmed! =P

Well it involves a superhero reject trying to help a bunch of obscure Nintendo characters in a world that has some rather beautiful art design (by Skip LTD, most likely)...Why WOULDN'T you want it?

I'm sorry, but I have no interest in this game. My world consists of colors like brown, gray, and muzzle fire.

"I'm sorry, but I have no interest in this game."

This will be the majority response from all the "MAKE NEW IP" people.

QFT. If this doesn't release in America, time to mod the Wii and get me an import copy.

I hope it's still called Captain Rainbow when it comes here.

No, it'll be called Grim Darkness and all colors are replaced with brown.

I think you should shut your goddamn mouth. I lament the fact that I'll never get to play this wackiness.

Is it just me, or does this seem very similar to the art style in TIngle's DS RPG adventure? I also think that this game probably won't make it here to the U.S. for probably the same reason Tingle didn't make it here, and that reason would be because homophobia is a major problem here, unlike in Japan or Europe.

It does look like a cool game, and I hope it makes it here, but the bigots might keep that from happening.

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #12 on:** July 10, 2008, 05:41:21 PM »

I would rather keep the idea that Tingle never made it stateside for the sole reason that Tingle just isn't a very popular character, not because of its homosexual undertones...That gives this game a bit better chance of coming over... =(

I'd say it much more closely resembles Skip's other title GiFTPiA.

Adrock · « **Reply #14 on:** July 10, 2008, 07:10:35 PM »

There's next to no gameplay in that trailer. I appreciate the obvious humor that will be in the game but I'd like some indication that what I'm playing will actually be fun.

I will offical give up on the American video game market if that happens.

So certain are you? Nintendo has done nothing but surprise people for the last two years. Maybe this game will make it to the states. If not, you can always import it and spend hours rifling through translation guides.

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #17 on:** July 10, 2008, 09:48:27 PM »

Unfortunately, importing Wii games is not nearly as cheap as importing DS games... =(

Mario · « **Reply #18 on:** July 10, 2008, 10:29:16 PM »

Tingle is popular. You can thank IGN for it not coming to America LOL. The style isn't that similar to Tingle, looks a lot more like Giftpia.

I think it should come over here because of the Nintendo characters in it. At least I hope.

Svevan · « **Reply #19 on:** July 10, 2008, 10:46:30 PM »

It's by Skip, ergo, I will climb mountains to purchase it.

Homosexual undertones? What? Sure, the bridge builder guys are weirdos and Tingle's costume isn't exactly the epitome of manliness (though overall he seems slightly more evil than weird, cackling when he succeeds and all that) but other than that I don't see much about homosexuality. The game has more busty women than muscled men.

Mario · « **Reply #21 on:** July 11, 2008, 04:50:53 AM »

The bridge builders exist for being hilarious.

I'm super interested in Tingle's game now!

I figured a guy named Duke with a white hat and sunglasses like that is a reference to Fear and Loathing.
