Title: Wario Land: Shake It! Japanese Web Site and Video Clips
Post by: David on July 04, 2008, 07:17:40 AM

NCL recently unveiled their minisite (http://www.nintendo.co.jp/wii/rwlj/index.html) for Wario Land Shake (Wario Land: Shake It! (http://themushroomkingdom.net/games/wlsi) in the USA).  Along with the cheery character art for the "Sha King", Captain Syrup, and Wario, you'll also find what appears to be the game's animated intro and some gameplay footage.

The intro looks like some Wario anime show

The game looks promising, atleast visually. Now let's just hope the gameplay holds the same quality as the other entries in the series.

My computer's translator (yes, translator.) is blind, so I didn't understand a word anything said.

Even if you used a page translator, nothing would happen. The site's constructed entirely in Adobe Flash, and uses images instead of text.

Eh, I don't know about this one. Miyamoto said in an interview that he likes to make each of Nintendo's games feel fresh and different, but I really don't get that same "nintendo" vibe with this game. The intro is looks like your basic anime intro you could find in any other game- not bad, but not unique. Even Master of Disguise had a cool art style going for it. The actual in game graphics kinda remind those old PC games.

Still you can't judge a game by it's graphics, so I'll see what scores it's gets and rent the game before passing my final judgement. Actually looks fun.

Unfortunately, I have an extreme personal bias against anythign anime-related, and thus I will have trouble bringing myself to purchase this title.

This game looks promising, but so did Master of Disguise.  I'll get this game if the reviews are good.
