    Captain Rainbow

    Game » consists of 1 releases. Released Aug 28, 2008

    Captain Rainbow is a quirky, communication focused adventure game from Skip. Players take on the role of the eponymous Captain Rainbow's alter-ego, Nick, as he attempts to revitalise the flagging ratings of his TV show, whilst also helping to grant the wishes of a cast of obscure Nintendo characters.

    And this game is OUT!!! (in japan)

    I'm eagerly waiting for this game to be localised.

    for those who are sceptic, this is by those who made chibi robot and Giftia.
    also there are some ex square members who worked on chrono trigger back in the day.

    (if you liked gears of war and say this game is gay then you're in denial)

    this game looks absolutely crazy, like a nintendo parody of itself. lots of gameplay variety as well. too bad i'll most likely never play it.

    I just ordered this, I'll let everyone know how it is.  Hopefully I can get through the Japanese text.

    I wished the same thing until I found out how easy it was to install Gecko OS, it allows you to play any region games.

    Based on those screens, I actually think it looks fun.

    I honestly know nothing about all that homebrew stuff, I just watched a video tutorial on youtube to install the Gecko OS channel.

    1. I had to download some files to an SD Card from my computer.
    2. Copy the file (which is the twilight princess save file hack that included Gecko OS) to my Wii. (After I backed up and deleted my own Zelda save file)
    3. Run Twilight Princess, click the second save file, when that loads up just make link walk backwards and it prompts the code to install and you're done.

    Now I have the Gecko OS Channel on my Wii home menue, from there there is an option to "Load Game" so I just ordered Captain Rainbow from Play-Asia, when I get it I put it in my Wii, go into the Gecko Channel and hit Load Game, and that should work perfectly.

    This seemed like a japan only game I wanted to play so I went for it.

    I don't think I went into too much detail on how or where to get the stuff I got, but feel free to remove it if I wasn't supposed to post it here.
