Yeah, it has some potential, and certainly looks like some time and though was put into its concept.
THQ, imo, doesn't have the talent available that some of the other, larger companies have, but I do think it has the resources, and a game like this can direct itself, imo. If enough effort is put into this game, it should in essence, create itself. The concept has been created, now just make a game that doesn't suck due to framerate, lack of enemies, or length of campaign, and you've got yourself the most original game on the Wii and maybe this gen.
This could be the game that returns THQ to its glory days, you never know. If they can pull off a semi decent game for the Wii, give it this premise, inform the general public about the concept, and create some sort of buzz around the game, by launching it in a relative dead spot, we could have a hit on our hands, and I don't mean sleeper.
Of course, at this point, it's all just speculation. It does, admittedly, seem unlikely to have a true Sonic at the Olympics grade hit from a new IP and a 3rd party at the same time, on the Wii. However, stranger things have happened, and I guarntee this game will sell on premise alone, if the public is properly advised, and I mean full fledged internet, TV, brick and morter, wal-mart slips, the works. Definately would make the money back, I feel. Kids would go nuts.
Young boys love spiders and scorpions, that's all I'm saying. Let them see you can fight a snake with a spider, and it's all over. That could actually sell hardware units, lol.

It feeds the rich while it buries the poor.
You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.
I don't need your console war.
NO NO, NO NO NO.
