SeriousWB on 19 January 2008

Ok, so apparantly the game is out in the UK since yesterday, the 18th. So I flick on the TV, it's just getting to midday, and what do I see? Two different Z&W adverts within the same half hour, on a decent channel in between what I assume to be wel watched programs. 

It isn't even being advertised as a children's game thank god.  First of all in the second advert I saw you see a late teenager playing it.  And secondly, the adverts were inbetween an American teen drama and the second one before a Friends episode. The adverts pretty much just show the game in play with the woman's voice that is on most Wii adverts here.

Just wanted to point that out since you guys in the US were complaining about the game going under the radar.

Bough it yesterday. In Italy (my country) there aren't any commercial about it.



Wii Fit is rapidly beating PS3...

Playing now: Apollo Justice, Majora's Mask

Going to play: Little King Story

Do you ever see any commercial about wii games (or the console) at all in Italy actually?

yeah, i saw it also in my local WHSmiths, and was very very very tempted tp buy it! From the sounds of it it sounds like one game you cant be without! But i decided not to, im gonna put off the purchase for a bit. I have too many games to play through atm! Metroid prime corruption, GH3, Crysis and Bioshock! :S lol

Apparently it's out, but after visiting 10-15 stores I still haven't found it. Grrr.

At Dixons they said: "Zack and Wiki? Why would you want that game? It's not something like Zelda or Mario...". No, really?

Sometimes...

OT: I have seen no commercials. (The Netherlands)



I'm going to buy Zack and Wiki! And you should so too.

I haven't seen a single Wii commercial here in Greece, not even about the Wii itself. No wonder PS3 is dominating here...

tons of wii commercials out here in Germany (no Z&W one seen yet). good to hear they advertise good games in the UK.

Like I said, I will be Z&W official legs, as I will definitely get it, just not right now. Same goes for NMH and other good games.
