Oh yes, I am so looking forward to this game. The unique style and art direction is what drew me (same for mushroom men).

I am looking to this as well I really like that you can paint the town in various colors.
I am surprised there is a lack of interest on this forum.

I'm hugely interested, ever since I played it at Nintendo Australias tour thingy, it's a really good game, it totally reeks of effort. Real fun in multiplayer too. I'm going to pre-order it (free figurine!) and buy it day 1, been a while since i've done that with a game. It comes out the same day as Wario Land here, what a huge day.

How awesome is that? So awesome!

I also like that De blob is fighting for colors to be everywhere instead of black and white and grey.

I think de Blob and Wario Land Shake It are going to be my next two Wii games as I don't see anything else worthwhile coming out between now and then.

The Nintendo Channel has a video.

Plugabugz · « **Reply #8 on:** August 19, 2008, 05:55:22 AM »

"TBA"

Fills me with confidence that.

Mario · « **Reply #9 on:** August 19, 2008, 06:01:30 AM »

Import from Australia! LOL

Send me yours please

I know that was terrible timing on my part.So here are some shots of the game as well as pictures of the Liepzeg event to make up for it.

Not interested?! NOT INTERESTED!

I FIND THAT OFFENSIVE!

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #13 on:** August 21, 2008, 02:59:48 PM »

Well I am glad you have interest.
So what does everybody think of this game.

ShyGuy · « **Reply #14 on:** August 21, 2008, 03:30:21 PM »

This game looks very "Wii"

Is that a compliment or a criticism?

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #16 on:** August 23, 2008, 01:59:31 AM »

Well I took it as unique.

This game is STILL one of my most anticipated titles this fall. It burns me up inside that the rest of the gaming world seems to be ignoring this wonderfully unique and smooth platformer-esque.

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #18 on:** September 05, 2008, 12:47:08 PM »

Well this game got a 10 from Ultimate Nintendo Magazine.I think that is a Australian magazine.So if Mario,Dasmos or Rabicle can confirm this that would be great.

Kairon · « **Reply #19 on:** September 05, 2008, 07:15:14 PM »

This game is coming out in a couple of weeks!

I am going to disappoint the Kairon and say I haven't really paid much attention to the game and am still on the fence since I know so little about it!

Holy ****, I get to buy THIS game THIS month!

Well, you could read my impressions from the Nintendo Media Summit... here. I loved the controls, the controller really just seemed to melt away for me.

Something that's VASTLY overlooked when talking about this game is the multiplayer modes. The "Blob on the run" mode is some super intense form of cat and mouse.

In addition IGN has tons of info.

I was just thinking about the story. I was thinking that it was lots to do about real life and working for the man.What I mean is it rebels against monotony and being tied down. If you think about it with games. The parallels are there as well.
