CrashMan on 29 October 2007

Several sites have the US release date for this title as today (Oct 29th,) yet I can not find a single professional review of this game.  As I have been looking forward to more details about this (and recieving none) from Nintendo, can any one confirm that this is out today, and possibly point me in the direction of some reviews?



I am a Gauntlet Adventurer.

I strive to improve my living conditions by hoarding gold, food, and sometimes keys and potions. I love adventure, fighting, and particularly winning - especially when there's a prize at stake. I occasionally get lost inside buildings and can't find the exit. I need food badly. What Video Game Character Are You?

It doesn't have a score, but it does have a very in depth run down of the game:

if you coogle it "battalion wii 2 reviews" you will find a few things It was playable on the "E for all" show but only specific wi-fi battle and not not the single player so the reviews were very few.

So far, Metacritic has one ranking listed:

75
Nintendo Power
The series' transition to the Wii has produced mixed results. [Dec 2007, p.82]


I noticed some games, they don't get enough ranking after a game has been out several weeks... That said, those are usually junk games anyways. Ninjabread man has been out for over 3 weeks and it only has 2 reviews! Some games have a dozen of day of launch.

I'm really interested in this game, but the Nintendo Power review is a bit worrysome. I think I'll wait for more reviews before I decide whether to get this one or the first Battalion Wars



I'm a mod, come to me if there's mod'n to do. 

Chrizum is the best thing to happen to the internet, Period.

Serves me right for challenging his sales predictions!

Bet with dsisister44: Red Steel 2 will sell 1 million within it's first 365 days of sales.

Meh, I plan n getting it for xmas. Unfortunately I'm still at school without my wii so no point getting it now. It looks cool and so, I don't care whta the reviews think :)

It's another Nintendo Stealth Title.

And you never know how large a payload those carry.
