I bought Disaster day of crisis the other day....2 days agon infact.

I HAVE NEVER ever played on rails games before. Let alone a game like Disaster, where there is on rails, third person action, driving and helluva lot more.

It was a blast to play. Not a 9.5/10 like SMG but definetly a 8/10 and above. And what does that idiot Reggie say that will affect u yanks....

In a brutally honest interview with IGN about Wii survival title Disaster: Day of Crisis (recapped in an IGN podcast), Nintendo president Reggie Fils-Aime expressed his concern over quality issues with the title, and all but confirmed it would not see a North American release unless sales improved dramatically in Europe.

Calling the voice work "laughable," Fils-Aime went on to say he did not believe the title was worth $50. Similar complaints about game quality have been raised elsewhere on the Internet, including inconsistent level design; and wonky controls schemes that jump from decent driving simulations to on-rails, Time Crisis-like levels with atrocious enemy AI.

For now, it would seem, our European cousins are serving as guinea pigs for this seemingly doomed title. A North American release seems even more doubtful today, but we'll keep you posted.

Yeah keep making sure Ubi and EA keep chugging out crap like "baabiez" and Horsez at FULL RETAIL RPICE, reggie, your job is safe.

You never played a game on RAILS before. Maybe Reggie has, they are old school. I hate to say it, but he may be more qualified to play it than you, since you will be more forginving on such an archaic concept.

Anyways, Reggie was the Spokesman, but he was PROMOTED TO PRESIDENT. He ain't going nowhere son.

Why would Reggie be fired if he made Nintendo some 2.34 billion dollars?

Nintendo went from last the previous gen to by far the best seller this gen and you think this guy should be fired? Some of the threads that are made just make me shake my head. Ya presidents of a company always get forced out of a company after they bring this much growth to it.

Agreed TC but Reggie is not the only one with his mind set on making casual games look good, Basically the whole Nintendo is the main issue behind it all. Reggie is just a lap dog in Nintendo's plans, a pawn. Reggie is probably not even a gamer, doesn't know crap about them infact. All he's good at is making crap sell well.

Maybe because of how successful Ninty has been with him on staff?

And as for Disaster: Day of Crisis, it seems as if reviews agree that the game is mediocre.

Lightgun games on rails were all the rage back about a decade ago.

You watch the press conferences with him and he comes across as a total moron if you are familiar with games. That said, he is a great salesman...

Maybe you guys will listen to him. Obviously since he's speaking against his own company, he means it.

1 - The game has an average of 7.something on Metacritic, 8.something on IGN UK

2 - The game isnt only on-rail, do some research.

3 - Saying On-rail/lightgun games are a thing of the past is stupid and slap in the face to the so called "hardcore" gamer

Expectations for this game have always been high so it makes sense that Reggie is hesitant to release a disppointment.

Huh? Nintndo should be erecting statues & creating national holidays named after this guy. Personally, I don't really like him or the Wii for that matter, but no one can dispute what he brings to the table at Nintendo. We'll just call him Jesus the 2nd & leave it at that.

The Official Nintendo Magazine itself gave it 8.2...

And it's got a much higher score on Metacritic than Wii Music.

Because Nintendo is demolishing the competition, Nintendo has regained the market leadership, and Nintendo is probably more profitable then they have ever been. That is why he has a job. Hell he will be promoted soon..
