It sucks. Really, really sucks. Plus no achievements.
I would recommend acquiring it with sources other than money so you don't feel ripped off like the 90k people in Japan who bought it.
So I think the real question is why did Nintendo decide to skip this x-mas? Usually there is supposed to be that one big 1st party title every x-mas like how Sony has Resistance/Uncharted, MS has Gears/Halo and usually Nintendo has Mario, Zelda, Metroid, or something. What was going through Nintendo's head when they said "Let's just not release any major game during the biggest gaming period of the year?"Wii Music and Animal Crossing are their "big" titles this year. They will outsell most of the quality HD games (including Dead Space aka GOTY). :'(
I know some people like to say it's because they are purposely giving 3rd parties a chance to sell their shovelware, but I think that's just a cop-out excuse because someone behind planning really fucked up this year. Maybe Nintendo had something like Pikmin 3 or whatnot and the pikmin rebelled so they couldn't get it out in time?

All I've bought for my Wii this year is Wario Land. The Wii has the benefit of not actually having games worth playing so when there is actually one that comes out I can sit down and focus on it just a little bit. Plus I just like buying stuff.

I don't even think there is really a Pikman 3. Did they ever clarify that they weren't talking about the Wii version of 1?
What does the Wii have for 2009?
MadWorld
The Conduit (I'm being nice here)
Sin and Punishment 2
Punch Out
This is seriously the complete list of both first and third party games on the Wii in 2009.
Dead Rising on the Wii could kick serious SERIOUS ass.
The original is one of the best games this gen, and with Wii controls it could get better.
Nope it can't get better on Wii or nope it's not one of the greatest games of the this gen? It's def one of my favourites.
It's not just a remake with Wii controls? :-\eh, sorta

So they took away most of made the title unique (72 hour story, 1 save slot). That's low. But I guess a perfect fit for the Wii. We can always dream of DR2. But then again they will prob make that easier too.
The over the shoulder RE4 style thing is good though I think. At least for the Wii controls.
It's not just a remake with Wii controls? :-\eh, sorta
it's the same story and setting, and the cutscenes are apparently just pre-recorded 360 ones
but the gameplay is different
-it's over the shoulder, RE4-style
-there's three save slots instead of just one
-you select missions which are individually timed, instead of one overarching 72-hour time limit
-no taking photos (who knows why the fuck they decided that)

This is seriously the complete list of both first and third party games on the Wii in 2009. Both the PS3 and 360 are much better in terms of exclusive games and that isn't even factoring in the third party games for the system.
Oh, and even the PS2 had a better year than the Wii.
