Personally, I think this game will be middling at best. Also, the trailer (as keeping with most dance game trailers) is extremely forced and lame.
 
However, it's going to sell millions upon millions of copies -- which it'll probably need to because I'd have to imagine getting the license to make a Micheal Jackson is not cheap.

My thoughts exactly. Why didnt I realize it when I heard Ubisoft was doing the game.

I'd be more excited about something like this for the Kinect, Dance Central style!

Had this been on Kinect and utilized a microphone as well then it would be notable. If it is just another Wii game where you are vaguely imitating what his right hand is doing than it is completely pointless.

@elitefury: They are both published by Ubisoft, so not really a competition.

I clicked on this video just to see the screen grab that's used as the preview image. I think I just figured out all I need to know about this game from it.

Generic music game only partly saved by the actual music of Michael Jackson.

Sort of depressing really.

Wait a minute,  MJ game with the Move controller and they don't include "hand jobs" for the King of Pop?!? I thought this game was going to be about luring young boys with Jesus Juice and Bubbles.

 At least 9% of our electricity  consumption comes from lighting. If Micheal Jackson's moves can provide free lighting, I will support this game.

They should've shown how dudes really play this. Standing lazily up/sitting the fuck down and only shaking the controller about.

This game would only be interesting to play on Kinect and NOT the Wii / PS Move. If it plays in like a Dance Central-sorta way, this could be a good game to keep an eye on.

Why don't they just bring Moonwalker to XBLA, Wii marketplace and PSN. That would make for a better experience and give people what they really want in an MJ game.

Weird that they'd show the trailer with people holding Wii Remotes. It's coming to the PS3 and 360 too, right? I mean, it'd be crazy not to enable kinect for this.

Don't be a fucking idiot. Of course you're not. The music has nothing to do with how much of a turd this game looks.

Agreed. This game looks just like all of the other waste that has found a home on the Wii.
