The story as posted by Go Nintendo.

Looks like it could be a lot of fun!

And a full-on Wii exclusive title.

Let it not be said that EA isn't doing their part for the Wii.

This also confirms a Wii microphone is in the works and will be used.

After all, the press release says that players test their dancing and SINGING skills.

This also means that the mic could be a head set. I mean, how can you dance with the Wii and nunchuk while handling a mic?

Smash_Brother · « **Reply #3 on:** March 22, 2007, 05:40:14 AM »

Very true.

Screens remind me of Nightmare Before Christmas. Also, you cal clearly see alcoholic drinks at the bar behind the dancer.

That's a first for a dancing game...

Now that you mentioned NBC, could Boogie be as in "The Boogie monster"? The latest Billy and Mandy movie show the Boogie monster as being a LITERAL Boogie monster, so I wouldn't be surprised if that's the intention behind the characters in the game.

The characters look too monster like to be just a normal set of dancers.

First ever official Wii drinking game! Mario Party 8 will be the first Unofficial drinking game...

I know I would need (more than)a few drinks to play this game, especially when other people are around.

Meh...looks like something more geared toward the casuals, but I can't say I'm completely disinterested. The art style is intriguing (it does have a Tim Burton feel to it), and I'm curious as to how they're going to to incorporate the dancing and singing.

Oh and I don't need alcohol to let go of my inhibitions. I can make a fool of myself without the need of alcohol, thank you very much!

Don't back away, lets hear it, you won't hurt my feelings, I can take a joke.

So with Boogie, we have two games that supposedly use the microphone (the first one being High school musical).

Someone commented in the Go Nintendo article that they should have used the Miis for the music videos. That would've been awesome, but that's something that Nintendo needs to do first.

BRING BACK TALENT STUDIO NINTENDO!

EDIT: You heard it people, HE wanted to hear it. So don't bitch at me about it...

I was going to say...

But I thought black people were supposed to have good rhythm and only white people need alcohol to enjoy themselves...

There I said it!

I wonder if the music will have a Danny Elfman feel.

That's an unfair stereotype.

Black and Latino people have EVERY right to be just as awkward and uncoordinated as the average white person.

Asians, though, are born knowing every last intricacy of rhythm and dexterity and thus have no excuse for not being excellent dancers.

This should be an online enabled title hell even for the sole purpose of sharing videos that you recorded in the game to your friends over WiFi now that would be awesome. If that happened I'm sure there will be crazy posts on the fun house thread of how people are awesome or how much the suck.

I think that since the Wii came out it made EA to wake up and get off their asses to make awesome games again.

BlackNMild2k1 · « **Reply #15 on:** March 22, 2007, 06:55:39 AM »

Just FYI, I (and all "black" people) have excellent rhythm, and the alcohol is merely to inhance the fun factor by dulling our sense of awareness for our surrounding and to numb the pain inside that is passed down from our ancestors and the trauma that they have had to endure over past generations. :tear;

Pap you are so insensitive, and now I hope this thread gets locked now. ;_;

Are you happy now Kush?

You've obviously never seen P-Diddy dance. He sucks ass.

But yes, as a black person, I can say without any prejudice that black people do have excellent rhythm.

Kairon · « **Reply #19 on:** March 22, 2007, 07:15:03 AM »

That was a ridiculous reveal. It leaves SO many things unanswered!

It mentions players singing but doesn't mention a Mic/Headset!

It shows nunchuckish diagrams but doesn't explain how they work!

It doesn't even attempt to describe any actual specifics on how the game is played, just says "dancing" and lets us flounder with the rest.

It links to a German site as a source, confounding us monolinguals.

Was that even an official reveal?

P.S. Now... about that "Sunshine" game EA?

Whatever it was P-Diddy was doing on the dance floor(that some call dancing) doesn't mean he wasn't atleast doing it to the beat. Therefore the point stands.

Well, when Disney announced High School Musical the game, they mention that there will be singing but no word of a Wii Microphone. The rumors came from a store list which lists HSM as being bundled with a microphone. So for now its safe to assume that a mic will be released soon.

As for the specifics, if this is official, EA will more than likely make a press release soon. Hang in there!

BlackNMild2k1 · « **Reply #22 on:** March 22, 2007, 07:22:35 AM »

Apparently this game was at GDC and was playable. NDA's are to be lifted and impressions should be appearing soon.

Eh, not interested. But I'm glad it's coming exclusively to Wii.
