This is how I would review it.

'The game is worth 20$. They are selling it for 50$. I give it a 4/10 becuase of price.

See! I reviewed a nintendo game honestly.

Becuase dont get me started on how to review casual games. So just review them on if you felt it was worth what you paid or not.

 I highly doubt this game will sell on par with Wii Play, at least in NA for more than 2 weeks.

Nice? Ha, ha, ha!! 7.6 sucks in my opinion. No famous game ever gets lower than 8.0. I mean, Star Fox Adventures got 8.0, and so many people hated it. 7.9- is on my no no list. And why are we still looking at IGN? It's only one reviewer. Why aren't we looking at the average of many reviews?

 Well then I'm sorry you're such a tool.

Bet with disolitude: Left4Dead will have a higher Metacritic rating than Project Origin, 3 months after the second game's release.  (hasn't been 3 months but it looks like I won :-p )

Look at that, and you didn't even have to play the game. Now that's a honed review method.

Let's apply that elsewhere. I've got a game that's worth $660 (aka, any game anyone bought a PS3 to play). They are selling it for $60. I give it a 110/10 because of price. Hmm... no that can't be right...

Prediction: Wii passes 360 in US between July - September 2008. (Wii supply will be the issue to watch, and barring any freak incidents between now and then as well.) - 6/5/08; Wow, came true even earlier. Wii is a monster.

Yeah, it's extremely unlikely that it will. Still, the growth of the casual market is amazing. It's mirroring in the US what happened in Japan a year ago. I'm really piqued to see how deep this market will end up being, because we don't seem to have gotten close to the bottom of the well yet.

I doubt it will sell that well. I mean, it will probably be over a million, but it doesn't come with a free controller worth $39...


 yes but.....damit! alright i agree i dont feel like arguing rite now

I am just starting to notice that not everyone sells new wii games at list (and I don't mean just 1 dollar or less off). Circuit City has this for $39.99 (with $10 savings), and a few others below MSRP, and I think I seen Call of Duty 3 at Toys-r-us for $19.99 but others still have it as $49.

Wii Play is effectively priced at $10, that's the only reason it's selling at all.

BBA won't do well at $50, maybe Cooking Mama levels up to 200k in NA.

Anyone who uses a forum obviously falls into more of a hardcore market. I think we should atleast wait for the first weeks sales before sticking it.

I think the reason why Nintendo isn't giving people online for a game like this is because it does fall a heck of a lot more into the casual sector than the hardcore. They want to get everyone playing with their families first. The moment you add in online the game becomes a shallow 4 way competition, without the fun factor of a party environment.

I think Nintendo will give us online gaming for games like SSBB or Metroid but the casual market they will probably leave offline. IMO.
