Just by the look, I now wanta get. I'm usually no soccer fan but this game seems

very creative to me. Like the use of the WiiMote-not even Ninty had thought of that

with Strikers! Loved this series on the PSP so a must buy for me this year now!

Released in Japan next week - it'll be interesting to see what reception it'll get. I really hope it gets off the ground up and running, too many games these days suffer bad starts from Japan - Konami needs to have a big hit on the Wii before they give up al together.

Official Nintendo magazine getting reviews in tomorrow apparently they give it a 90% - http://forums.pesfan.com/showthread.php?p=6480036  Doesn't say a lot being a Nintendo magazine but good start in the right direction.  Plus go to http://www.officialnintendomagazine.co.uk and go in the Video Vault they've got 2 full 45 minute games on there Celtic vs Rangers on easy and Brazil vs Italy on Medium.  Would have liked to see a video of hard but never mind.

i hope this game gets lots of advertisement in both japan and europe. a sport game on the wii doing well--how nice would that be!

Out next week in Japan? Sweet!

I'm no football/soccer fan, but I'll be getting this for sure. The analogy to a RTS gets me real excited - finally a football game that controls properly :)

YAY! Famtisu gives it 9/9/8/9

That's 35, which is good for an innovative football game!

The game only has max 2 players at once. Too bad.

NO! It has Mii support. You can play as your miis.

This is the game for me. I've only owned one PES before, on Xbox, but ever since I first saw the game on TV I've been fascinated how real it looks. And now, it's going to do real justice to football. I'm so going to get this game, trampling hordes of dinosaurs couldn't keep from the store!

This game is not as good as 360/Ps3 version. Just look: Famisu Ps3/X360: 9/9/9/10=37 while this has 35. Aiming to much and so never works well. If I wanted that I'd play FM

NutBoy / Crazzman - whoever you are, good that you've labelled, judged and dismissed it as my versions better than your version BS.  I hope you are saying this just to troll because if you're not then I really feel for your lack of intelligence.

 Question 1 - how is a game where your role is to buy, train, nurture and select your team along with running all of the behind the scenes tasks get compared to a different control schemed Football simulator? 

Quesion 2 - do you really look at review scores and let them form your opinions for you, will you always inform people now that it's your opinion that this is the inferior version even though you've never played it?

So, it's out in NA.

Can any lucky NA buyer already give us "Others" region guys some thoughts on gameplay?

Do the controls work well?
