I'm sorry, but I've witnessed this game in motion. It is completely retarded to be exclusive to the Wii. As much as I cannot stand Kinect, this is about the only game which brings out the Kinects true positives. A Michael Jackson title that includes dancing can only be done true justice with full body motion recognition(Which means the move has more reason to have it as well) . I'm watching all these girls in my dorms flail their arms in the air when most of the movement is being done with their lower body. The movements do not match up properly and the dance routines are completely dumbed down. It's even less than general. In truth with the true amount of involvement you have with the title it isn't even worth the 50 bucks. I played it dancing and standing in place with my arms moving. I's fun if you overlook it, but in truth for what you're buying you should be given credit by the title for full participation. This cannot happen with such a game with the system its exclusive to.

To sum up, your gripe is the fact that you are uninformed. There - I condensed your paragraph to one sentence. You're welcome.


Uninformed? I guess you could say that. The only system the game has been truly publicized on is the Wii. All the Kinect owners dont have one. Most dont even know about it outside of the Wii. I guess Just Dance started the trend.

Yes, uninformed. Your first statement was that it was "retarded" to be a wii exclusive game, which is it clearly not, and then you went on to rant about it. If you had spent 30 seconds, maybe 45, you would have known that it is not exclusive and that the PS360 versions are coming out in a few months (ignoring the fact that the PSP/DS versions out already make it a multiplatform game).

The only system the game has been truly publicized on is the Wii.
You're correct here. It has only been publicized on the Wii. They haven't been advertsing the DS or PSP versions very much, have they. What?  You want them to advertise the 360/PS3 versions? They aren't coming out for a few more months. Why would they bother advertising those versions during the holiday season (you know, when a lot of software is sold) instead of the Wii version which is actually out? Is there any reason they would do that? You don't think they would wait until it's actually close to coming out before advertising it? Or are you suggesting that they should give equal advertising time to all the versions right now? Because if you are, to me that idea sounds...retarted.

All the Kinect owners dont have one.
Yes, they don't all have a Wii...nor do they need one for this game. I'm not quite sure where you're going with this...

Most dont even know about it outside of the Wii.
I assume the ones actually interested in the game would know. Or those who would bother spending a minute looking online. Either one.

Yeah...the first response pretty much dealt with the issue. This response was a bit much. Obviously you can see that I dont have the time to constantly research every title like I used to. I've made clear around here that I wouldn't be buying as many games as usual nor talking about gaming as much while going to school. It was just an uneducated gripe. Let it be. I knew the Michael Jackson experience would come out but the commercials were mostly pro Nintendo.
