Im suprised the review didnt include a bag of shit being lit on fire.

yes, the game sucks - i played it at my friends house - wasn't even worth the cost of the dvd we burned the game to.

and damn that review was hilarious!!!

My god that looks just horrible ... seriously , I cant bealive it that Nintendo even alows games like this for the Wii ... well , at least Wii owners can pla SMG I guess ...

I had such high hopes.

Serious comments to follow

But actually, a lot of people don't realise just how significant Ninjabread Man is. In fact, I'd go as far as to say Ninjabread Man is the number 2 reason (beyond the mass market appeal and positive press) that Wii will win this console war. Think about it. When you tell developers their products are too bad to be released on your console, you turn developers away. When you turn developers away, you get less variety of games etc. 

Nintendo used to be a communist company, even turning away 4/10 games during the early days. They have finally decided to let the free market work. They are finally letting not just third party developers on their consoles (which once was barely allowed), but really crappy ones. This is a GREAT THING! As bad as it is, a game like Ninjabread man will be enjoyed by some young people. It really will. All Nintendo can do by allowing these games on its console is MAKE MORE MONEY and APPEAL TO A WIDER AUDIENCE. Almost any game released on Wii is a WIN for Nintendo. If the free market doesn't demand the game, the developer will learn and make something else. It's not like Nintendo made the game.

And it's stupid thinking a game like this will tank the Wii. No one is going to criticise the Wii for a game like this. Anyone remotely human can see this doesn't challenge you because you're not 4 years old. I mean, pointing at targets and shooting would be an AWESOME experience for a 4-year-old. And everyone in business knows that appealing to children, however young, is HUGE money. You know, why do you think there are so many baby toys???  

i hate them......IGN is always giving baaad rating to Wii games.....

obviously, they have no taste of what likes to people, they do not rate a game by how FAN it is.....

Mario Party 8 is a proof, how the h*** can one of the most fan games, that has sold 4 million, to get a score of 5.2???? they suck.....

Oh noes, people can't see sarcasm even when the jokes been going on for months.

These DDI people somehow managed to port every shovelware game they've made in the past 3-4 years to the Wii and made a killing off of it.

It's really funny that IGN made a video review for this game to show the reviewer's frustration. IGN has different teams reviewing games from each console. I think their Nintendo team is pretty fair, but their Playstation team seems to have problems with SIXAXIS.

Good God, these DDI people are putting out another piece of shovelware for the Wii this week: Kidz Sports Ice Hockey.

*cringes*

The Popcorn Arcade and related games are reallly really really bad.
I have Spy Games: Elevator Action only because it was $10 NEW at Best Buy.
It was developed by UFO, which also is releasing Popcorn's games in the US.
And it is just as bad.

Its too bad really, with work the game had promise, but they clearly didn't deliver...and from the looks of it I don't think we will be seeing any Ninja Breadman 2 =P
