How exactly?
Personally this sounds very interesting, and certainly would appeal to a younger audience. It'll probably never make it to the west, but still, it's not a bad game.

So a music based puzzle game...
But the music doesn't affect the gameplay?
Yeahp, it's official.
All developers need to make an account on this very site, because sometimes I just don't know what they're doing.

Yeah, the music doesn't exactly have any obvious effect on the gameplay( though I didn't realize Lumines utilized music either, it was simply hypnotizing), but the blocks do flash at certain intervals. If a block is placed when it isn't lit up, then it remains dulled. My guess is lit-up blocks net you more points. Still not my thing, but it does seem sort of interesting.

Too many puzzle games, but......
This one is an interesting concept I have to admit.

Actually, Sonic Spinball has four tables plus three bonus micro-tables.
And if this game even had just one table; I am still getting the game. Three tables for 800 points including lot of other features is a steal IMO.

I like the idea of realtime puzzle (blocks fall while you play) but it seems that the rythm has no great effect on the gameplay?
I think it doesn't fit my taste - it just looks too generic too me. =/
... but I think it will sell well because of its great simplicity and the funky music! =)

I guess World of Goo will come in October, together with the retail version in Europe...
I thought the publisher had said the retail verison would be Early 2009...great, so not only are we charged more but we have to wait longe...oh wait, thats pretty standard for Europe

@LAA: "I havent even played the game yet, so I shouldnt judge, but judging by the tralier it just looks like tetris" bad quote ahoy!
Doesn't look too appealing to me. I'm going with the majority and waiting for your thoughts.

WHOA! I just found out about it and it is going on THIS MONDAY? What a surprise!
Hnn... would this be like Patapon, Mother 3, or something else?
Finalkingdom13-san:
"i dont think nintendo is going to be able to keep releasing only one wiiware game per week
theres just too manyand they keep anouncing more =D"
Hopefully. I want more choices, especially an RPG (Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life as a King ot counting, since it seems a lot like SimCity).

As much as I can see the player moves the blocks similar to the beat. You can see that from .27 He´s waiting for the right moment to smack them down.
For me it is very interesting. I love these old breakdance-funk-tracks (somebody remembers The Rocksteady Crew or the Jonzun Crew?), and because I don´t have much puzzlers for my systems I´m interested.
Lets wait for the review.

I watched the trailer, and I still don't see how music is used in this.
As for the whole "3-day warning thing", I like suprises, and at least it doesn't seem all that bad. Besides, at least we're getting some warning.
Edit: Okay, I watched it again, and I finally realized that the blocks "flash to the beat", and honestly I've lost interest in it. I already have Lumines and Ausiosurf, I think I'm good on music puzzlers.

This looks passable, on acount of this is practically Dr. Mario but not as good. I hope tetris, animales de la muerte, and world of goo come soon!

This just looks like tetris, but they're making out it's completely different when they add music into the game.
I havent even played the game yet, so I shouldnt judge, but judging by the tralier it just looks like teris.
Plus, since you guys/girls are due a lot of games for september, Nintendo is pushing it by bringing out games that havent even been announced, unlike many others that have for this month already before hand.
I think the US might not be getting all the games announced for this month, (4 or 5), and theres 3 more wiiware days left.
That means you need 2 days giving you more than 2 wiiware in the next 3 weeks.
I think that strongbad will be definately released this month.
Also, according to wikipedia Aero Guitar will be released in Japan on the 9th September.

@ WiiBoy (Bplus) + WiiloveitOnline
Yeah, I ABSOULTELY LOVE GAMES, but again, it could take all the fun out of it.
One of the only reasons I would want to be a game tester for a while because if you were in an interview for a games developer, they like to hire people with expierence in the gaming industry, (so game testing is an easy job to get hold of, so easy expierence there) and NEW GAMES!
@ WiiloveitOnline
YEAH!, I THINK THAT TOO!
Actually, they might actually eat like one, but most of the time, none gets eaten, which was disappointing...
