Real impressions:

*Pointer controls are PERFECT.  They are incredibly fast and accurate.  I can honestly say this is one of the few games where a non Wii version would feel gimped.
*Holding down B shoots your machine gun.  Tapping B swings the sword.  Holding down A charges a powerful attack that has a cool down.  Z does a quick roll and C jumps.
*The scoring mechanism is pretty cool.  For every enemy you kill, your multiplier goes up 0.1 until it caps out at (I think) 11x.  Every time you get hit, your multiplier seems to go down 2 points.  There are timed mini bosses and you get a bonus score of your multiplier times the number of seconds left when you killed the miniboss.
*The game is fucking hard hard on hard mode.  I died in 4 hits on stage 2 with a ton of bullets on screen.
*There is a miniboss that has "cock" in the title. :teehee

Are you running this off a loader?

Sounds sick, how are you running this? I am highly considering importing; I don't think I can wait that much longer to play this.

When is Treasure going to make a real next-gen game? Or is their team too small to handle it proper

Honestly this is probably the second best looking Wii game behind Mario Galaxy.  It is still uggo, but there are some very impressive things like a huge fucking turtle boss that made me go :o

They have an affinity for Nintendo platforms for whatever reason.

The first one didn't sell well either. It's already been confirmed for stateside release.

This is one that I'll ferret away and store in my closet in anticipation of the day I actually buy a Wii.

This game looks great.  It's pretty much what I wanted from a Wii game (rail shooter where you control the character with analog, aim with pointer) since it came out.  I want Wild Guns 2 like this now.

This game is brutal on hard mode.  I'm seriously dying at nearly every miniboss.  There are plenty of checkpoints and unlimited continues so completing the game is no problem, but if you are going for a high score it will be very challenging.
