I'm going to have to take a shot at this and say they're taking the Mario Super Sluggers route. I never played that game actually so I'm not sure what you mean ;D The knock off on Mario Super Sluggers is that it's just Mario Superstar Baseball but with the Wii's motion controls and no Wi-fi. But then again, judging from the title, it is the samething.  |

There's a receiver that plugs into the bottom of the Wiimote, where the nunchuck plug already is. It's pretty spiffy. Tho Nyko has a new third-party Wiimote coming out, and it'll have a wireless nunchuck with rumble compatibility. That is really cool - I'll look into that as well as that Wiimote/classic controller connector thing  The knock off on Mario Super Sluggers is that it's just Mario Superstar Baseball but with the Wii's motion controls and no Wi-fi. But then again, judging from the title, it is the samething. Ahhh ok - I see. Well this tennis game really is meant to be the same thing - they don't even try to repackage it - they admit it's the same game. The Mario Super Sluggers thing sounds like like a lazy upgrade that they tried to sell as a new game but they totally intended this to be advertised as the same game. |

New Play Control! Mario Power Tennis Looks fun to try out, and I have ways to get this game without shelling out the money.  |

I don't mind the New Play Control! idea, so long as the game is worth the attention. Mario Power Tennis and Donkey Kong Jungle Beat? Not so much. Pikmin and Metroid Prime? DO WANT.

Metroid Prime would be good, but this time with BOTH 1 AND 2 ON THE SAME DISK!!!

Man, Galaxy is so far beyond Sunshine that Nintendo would be absolutely stupid to make it a NPC! title. Seriously. The only cool part of Sunshine were the bonus rounds anyway. NINTENDO OF AMERICA! MAKE WITH THE METROID PRIME NPC! GAMES ALREADY!!1 D:

Oh I agree, I just thought a Wii water cannon peripheral would be hilarious  I only played Sunshine once and that was all I cared to play it. I consider it similar to Mario 2 in that it was an official Mario game that really had little business being in the series (though Mario 2 was more fun). Galaxy, on the other hand, was the reason I bought the Wii and was epic |

I'd say it's better. Why's it better? No lawn mowing or car fueling or scorpion catching or trash collecting. Just killing and impaling and immolating and throwing people in front of rocket-propelled and/or spike-laden trains.

So, as I might've mentioned somewhere, John DiMaggio (Bender from Futurama) and Greg Proops (you might remember him from such TV shows as Who's Line is it Anyway?) do play-by-play in MADWORLD (as character's who's names I don't remember). And it's so fucked up and obnoxious and crude. I love it. At one point, after having thrown a tire around a guy, shoved a street sign through his neck/chest, tossed him into a barrel, and then drove the poor bastard down on a spike, I got this;
[Proops:] Wow! I haven't heard someone scream like that since I walked in on my third ex-wife having sex with the next-door neighbor!
[DiMaggio:] What? She screamed cuz you walked in on her?
[Proops:] No, she screamed cuz I was embarrassing her in front of company!
I loled out loud.

XD I seriously can't wait to start playing this game. Just came via UPS a couple hours ago. Hopefully I can get some play time in, in a couple of hours or so.
