i got my copy today. i pre order it a while ago for fear of it not selling and me having a hard time getting it. its basically the only reason i bought a wii. its an interesting game. its basically a slow moving game were you look for a few items on each level with a a very poor flash light. im a big fan of the series and i had to get the game even though i didnt have high hopes for it. it has a few scary moments but overall is very buggy. i do enjoy having it though if for nothing else to say i have it. it only takes about 2 hours at most to beat so its not the longest game.

i think i paid 30 for it so it wasnt that bad. its the most ive paid for a game in a long time. if i wasnt such a fan id be pissed at my self but its ok because i am. the kid at the store didnt even know the game came in. i got the only copy they had recieved. not because it was sold out or in short supply, they just didnt want any. i have to say it probably has the worst controls of any game ive ever played. i think the wii motion plus maybe good for it but i dont even know if its compatable. now if they would just make a friday the 13th game....

i have learned a lot about how gamestop works and they only got 1 copy not because they didn't want it but because the warehouse gets orders to send out copies based on preorders and if the store gets no preorders the warehouse is told to ship 1 copy of the game out to that store personally i am not a huge fan of jun on story its fun but not great one missed call was better just as long as nether one is the bad american copys

for the record i never even dreamed it was going to be amazing. i always had a low opinion for it. it would have been nice to get a killer game but i know better from nintendo. i have a low opinion of every wii game sadly. i have yet to play one and say "this is amazing" unless i pop in an old gc game.

Nintendo didn't develop this, XSEED did. Blame them.

i blame both. nintendo has been really lax about letting aweful games go through on this system. doesnt seem like they even care about 3rd party quality. its really the driving thing from keeping the wii great. it only has a handful of good games and the rest are almost unplayable. xseed should have stepped back and asked if they really thought it was good enough to sell. i dont think they rushed it i think they just put it together and said here now sell it. i have a few xseed games and enjoyed them for the most part but this isnt really one of them.

I'm still waiting for Rising Star Games to release it in Europe I won't be buying it straight away. But I'm still annoyed that Fatal Frame Wii is not coming out in US or Europe. But why is it that europe gets an awful cover for Ju-On.

Has any console manufacturer ever cared about the quality of the games developed for its system?

People act as if the Wii is the only console, ever, to have bad games released on it.
