Clicky Clicky!

Anyone else excited? Looks really great, & I really like how well Koji Kondo did the music! (as always)

Yah I saw this on IGN. I can't wait to get my hands on it.

Yep! The preview looks amazing. I love the sounds the preview boasts, it really takes me into space.

Not sure if it was the compression that made the game actually look good, but the graphics seem phenomenal, for the Wii.

I've been saying "This is the game I will get a Wii for!"...but every place I go won't do preorders saying "it's still vaporware..." Is there even a solid release date yet?

I only read up on all the GDC news an hour before I went to sleep yesterday, & I'm behind a proxy right now, & I'm not getting home till like 6PM today. I think I checked, & I only saw the release date for Super Paper Mario (Which also looks awesome; April 9th FTW).

I saw a 480X360 Interlaced MPEG2 copy of the preview. Has anyone here seen better?

I saw the preview on youtube I dunno what resolution it was, but it looked SWEET! I will buy a Wii for this game!

As far as the release date, N.A. and Europe have set it for 2007 for sure, but they say between March and December....

This actually looks quite good... I was highly disappointed with Sunshine... I haven't actually liked the Mario series since 64. I do NOT like the space environment OR the whole sphere thing... but I think this will be made up for with gameplay (Wiimote!).

So the Wiimote automatically makes it a good game?

This really reminds me of that Sonic demo where you run around spherical levels, but it had a fish-eye camera.

Sonic eXtreme? The last cry of the Sega Saturn that was stomped and mutilated? lol, well yea. Anyways, the game does seem cool. But I still cry for a three pronged controller to control Mario with. I just can't do the point and 'hold the joystick as a seperate' thing.

... Kinda...

No, the gameplay just looks fun... I guess... I don't know. I probably won't really like it.

Chances are I won't be playing it for a year or two anyway... after the Wii drops in price enough for me to afford one...

It ain't 3D Mario without three prongs of controlling goodness, N64 FTW!!!
