This game is coming out in November.While its DS prequel is out in October.The DS game is probably out already.I haven't been keeping track of the DS game.

If you preorder the Wii game from Gamestop you get a cute Mushroom Man figurine which is a MUST own.

Dman it was last year too although to a lesser degree than this year.Golden while I am interested in the figurine my business with Gamestop is over.

Mushroom Man figure? ARGH! I preordered today and didn't get squat! Except for, you know...the preorder.

I fell in love with this game the minute I saw the promotional video in which the fungal protagonist encounters an owl. The owl looms in the distance, relatively colossal and perched on a windowsill, jerking its head horizontally as it considers the odd little mushroom person. People don't make games with this much character very often.

Smart move considering monter labs release

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #83 on:** November 04, 2008, 11:14:33 PM »

Yeah I hope that Monster Lab gets the exposure it needs. The only games I see that could overshadow Monster Lab is COD:WAW and TOS:DOTNW.

Well I will probably get Tales this month. In December Mushroom Men: The Spore Wars

DAaaMan64 · « **Reply #84 on:** November 04, 2008, 11:30:01 PM »

I expect Monster Lab to be over shadowed for the same reason games like that always do on Nintendo platforms.

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #85 on:** November 04, 2008, 11:40:24 PM »

Well De Blob has sold well. Although it got good marketing.Do you think that will be a problem with Mushroom Men?

Yes for sure. I don't expect this to change till Nintendo hands the Wii over to third parties like they did with the DS.

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #87 on:** November 04, 2008, 11:55:46 PM »

If I understand correctly you mean as long as the DS is in the spotlight than the Wii won't get the attention it needs.

DAaaMan64 · « **Reply #88 on:** November 05, 2008, 12:00:57 AM »

woops, sorry I didn't write that correct. I fixed it.

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #89 on:** November 05, 2008, 12:12:38 AM »

How would you propose that Nintendo does this?When should they release titles?Do you think that Nintendo has it right with them releasing titles in the first half while 3rd parties get the other half of the year?

DAaaMan64 · « **Reply #90 on:** November 05, 2008, 01:12:46 AM »

I have no idea how they do it. I just watch.

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #91 on:** November 05, 2008, 01:16:41 AM »

Fair enough.

Hmmm I like the way you can make various different weapons and the co-op aspect.

Technically this holiday season Nintendo is giving it to third parties since Nintendo doesn't have a strong presence outside of Wii Music and Animal Crossing because they are busy in development of their next big guns. Some third parties are jumping at this and some aren't.

ReverendNoahWhateley · « **Reply #93 on:** November 18, 2008, 09:45:13 PM »

Game Informer gave Mushroom Men for the Wii a fairly low score. However, they also gave the Wii renditions of Fire Emblem and Harvest Moon similarly low scores, so it might be best to be more skeptical of the GI review than of Mushroom Men.

DAaaMan64 · « **Reply #94 on:** November 18, 2008, 10:12:49 PM »

Nintendo Power gave it an 86/100. Thats a great score!

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #95 on:** November 18, 2008, 10:33:43 PM »

It is indeed DAaaMan64.I think I will look for some more reviews.

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #96 on:** November 26, 2008, 12:10:52 AM »

Well the Wii and DS version will be shipping next week simultaneously. Does anybody want to make a thread for the DS prequel?
I haven't seen any other reviews.

Spinnzilla · « **Reply #97 on:** November 27, 2008, 10:32:07 PM »

I'm ready for this damn game. I've already got money set aside for it.

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #98 on:** December 03, 2008, 03:06:02 PM »

Well the game is out.I couldn't find it.Who got it?

Kenology · « **Reply #99 on:** December 06, 2008, 02:45:26 PM »
