Ooh! Click to move! Somehow, I never put two and two together since a whole ton of adventure games use that method.

Did you not realize that this was a point and click adventure game like Monkey Island?

I realized it was an adventure game, but the point+click bit to move... like I said, I phailed to put 2 and 2 together.

You know, after watching some TGS vids of this, it's moved waay up on my priority list. Point-and-click adventure games are always welcome, plus I love the art style.

Bump! Prepare for Awesome!



I pre-ordered Zack and Wiki this weekend, I rarely pre-order games, but I wanted to support this title. Really looking forward to this game.

IGN Review:  9.0

This is the worst Mega-Thread ever; Bill hasn't even updated the topic title with the correct name of the game.
Why must all things be so bright? Why can things not appear only in hues of brown! I am so serious about this! Dull colors are the future! The next generation! I will never accept a world with such bright colors! It is far too childish! I will rage against your cheery palette with my last breath!

This is IGN.  Can I agree with them?  They must be inflating scores.

Argh, now the holiday rush truly begins

Or should that be a ?

Trials and Tribulations comes out at the same time as Zack and Wiki, but unfortunately they're both very high on my priority list.

I have Prof Layton (EDIT: Wait a second! That's been moved to February next year, eh?) as my other must-buy DS title, and for Wii I have:

- Mario Galaxy (Nov 12)
- RE: Umbrella Chronicles (Nov 13) OR Ghost Squad (Nov 6)
- NiGHTS (Nov 13)
- BWii (Oct 29)

OH GOD, I just realised that most of these games except BWii and Ghost Squad come out within a week of Galaxy. Well that clears things up a bit. They never stood a chance *bows head in respect*

Then my "maybes" are:

Trauma Centre (Nov 20) - ugh, again just a week after Mario
Soul Calibur Legends (Nov 6) - still unsure about this one, waiting on detailed impressions


So in conclusion, when will these stupid freaking third parties get a clue? Launching nearly every major Wii game so close to the biggest one of them all? I was ready to give them my money on launch, but it looks like I'll have to pick some of these up in December at the earliest, and probably next year.

That means I'm getting Phoenix Wright, Zach and Wiki, Mario Galaxy, and BWii for sure. Then I'll buy either RE:UC or Ghost Squad, then rent the other. Or rent both. They'll be a quick and fun distraction. NiGHTS and Trauma Centre will have to be pushed back.

Trimming complete.

Capcom was wise enough to delay Harvey Birdman till the rush died down. But yeah its annoying when companies rush their big titles during the holiday season and forget about the rest of the year.

So, is Phoenix Wright 3 going to cannibalize Z-Dub sales or vice versa?

Lol I didn't think of that. That would be like Nintendo throwing out two first party games the first day and hoping they both do well.

Did anyone find this game in a store that doesn't base their entire sales model off of preorders yet?

Should I bother even looking for it today?

Doesn't it ship today? It seems to a take a day for it to come out even at those stores with a preorder sales model.

My Gamestop tends to get non-Nintendo-published games a day after the official "release date."
