Before I start, I should inform you that I haven't actually downloaded this game yet, but from seeing the info video on the nintendo channel. I'd have to say i'm kind of intrigued. Now this is a physics-based platformer which is a popular genre in the wiiware library. The only reason that I am stressed is that wiiware games are just in downloadable state, and the chances fo having a sequel are slim. Maybe optical disc would have been the best way to go... and we could say the same thing for a lot of wii ware games. Anyway, im hoping to get this game soon and I think you guys should do the same...unless you have an E3 candidate in mind which means you would be wasting your time.

A lot of WiiWare games have gotten sequels. Plus, And Yet It Moves was originally a downloadable PC game anyway, so it makes sense on WiiWare (especially because of the updated Wii controls). I'm intrigued by it as well. I may download it at some point if I'm in the mood for a quick-burst puzzle game.

That doesn't make any sense

Digital is the way to go because it cuts down the dev's costs dramatically and then allows a greater chance to have a follow up title made.

Yeah there are many Wiiware games with sequels. Small games like this wouldn't survive in retail as there is only so much shelf space. Retailers would rather put out many copies of well known games like Mario and Call of Duty than a game know one's ever heard of about physics puzzles. Small, sophisticated, and artsy titles can pretty much only exist on download stores. Now if it's popular enough it may eventually spawn a full retail sequel.

Half the cost of a game is shipping it around the world and paying for the disc/case...so Downloaded games are a better way to go. If only you can transfer them from system to sytem as the next gen comes out. Atleast with steam, if you get a new comp, steam is always there.
