As hectic and old-fashioned as this game is, they should just allow two characters on-screen at the same time, or split-screen if they really want to stick with outdated gameplay. The "second player is another reticule" seems kind of boring, and strange since there's clearly two characters shooting in the story whether you have two players or not. You'd think that would imply a focus on two player action.

Wh...wh..why does it look so bad?...I know its a Wii game but...it looks near N64 game.  
 
At least the boss looks pretty polished.

The flying turtle was Gamera, at it was separate from Godzilla. Completely different series (though there may have been a crossover once).

Even for the Wii this game has bad graphics.

It's Treasure. They simply decide on a framerate and keep it that way.
 
However, I am not sure why people always jumped to the N64 for comparison. I am a huge fan of the N64, and I can say that looks way too detailed and fast for an N64 game. Too much things going on screen, and the characters look round and complete.

Awesome fun. Nice old school vibe there.

People seem to be pumped for this game.

God that looks awesome. I'd get it, but I'd suck and never get anywhere. Maybe if I could find someone to engage in weirdass improvised multiplayer modes with...

Pretty sure original Sin and Punishment coop was one player controlling and another shooting, don't know why they took it out for this one.

I like it. Pretty refreshing arcade-style action compared to most of my recent purchases.
