A lot of Wii games boil down to a "touching yourself" game and devs have said this also. There should totally be a "Touching Yourself" Game page

I nominate this for the next Endurance Run, especially because of the "March, march, keep on marching!" line.

That damn baton pisses me off. SO MUCH.

The game play could be amazing. The greatest of all time ever. But I couldn't play it. Because of the baton.

Exactly why I think a "casual" gamer could learn a traditional controller just as easily. When the Wii remote doesn't work half the time I don't understand how they can stand it. When a regular controller works 99% of the time i'd imagine if they gave it a try they would love it just as much. Problem is they don't try. It reminds me of films. Poeple would rather go see Paul Blart than something good. Not saying that the Wii is as bad as Paul Blart as it certainly isn't. There are great games on the Wii with controls that work just fine. Poeple don't play them though. And for me its not really about just the Wii. It's about people trying other things. Variety.

Like Greg Kasavin said in the Oblivion marathon, you know what we're all wondering here: what in the hell did the ESRB-approve to happen should you NOT complete a superb halt maneuver?

I dunno man, Parappa or Jammy aside, this game looks like it would keep your interest for about as long as this quicklook save for you being 6 to 9 seeing how it looks like some messed up story from a mr dressup or bookmice show. Then again if Jeff and Ryan, grown men, ware having helluva time trying to make it work, I can't see how a kid could get into it.

Interesting idea but uh..pass.

Looks like a great game for kids but it doesn't quite have the same appeal that Parappa had to me.

Good Lord, this looks like the most anti-fun game ever.  I'll pick it up when it drops down to $20, but only out of my irrational love for Um Jammer Lammy.

I like that Wii developers are liable to put Wii Remote jackets on in-game images of Wii Remotes.  Are people still chucking controllers into TVs?

Couldn't they have just made a new PaRappa game? This looks frustrating as hell.

Until Ryan and Jeff said "In stores now!" I seriously thought this had to be a WiiWare game. I don't have a Wii, nor do I have any interest in one, but how does a company justify releasing a retail game that looks worse than an XBLA game? Is this common? I know there is a lot of crap on the Wii, but this sounds like it was coming from some guys who made good games in the past. This just seems broken.

The Wii remote shaking looks wrong on so many levels.
