So, the honor falls to We Ski. Can we promise you that it's not solely because it's really funny when you say its name aloud? No, dear reader. No we can't. We're hoping next week will be better; you can check out the whole month right here.

And Lost Winds on Wii Ware, since it's supposedly a launch title.
I also intend to rent either Deca Sports or We Ski and see which one I like better.

And WTF is a Nintendo Power?
It actually is. The only thing that's really wrong with it is the stupid waggle reflector attacks. Once you get the rosary, though, that problem goes away.
And believe me – I bitched up a storm about it and I've completely changed my mind now.
Not as good as the PS2 version, but still NOT worthy of a 7. A high 8 or low 9 would be more accurate.
It wasn't only that, there are many complaints about the Wii version, they claim that the controls aren't well calibrated and that in general the controls are a pain unlike the PS2 version, well, the only thing they praise about the Wii controls is the celestial brush...
Anyway, that alone could have made the game rank below an 8...
But otherwise, the controls are sufficient. I would have made it so the up and down buttons on the D-pad serve as action buttons for Dig and Map and you have to hold the C button to use the D-pad as a camera..but that's just me.
The rest of the game's problems are up to the individual player...amped up colors, less prominent paper filter, ink bleed effect isn't prominent, etc.
Don't get me wrong – I'll never say the Wii version is superior, but it's NOT so bad or broken that it's worth a 7.
Seriously, I know that the Wiimote can't be used for everygame, but goddamn, this was one game for which the IR pointer and motion sensing was meant for!
Anyway, We Ski? I'm not expecting much.
still, lovely game and I will suffer through the freezes to play through it again.

- It was an incredibly silly game, understandable by the average Joe (read: mass-market gamer), whose sole reason for popularity was because since it had such beautiful graphics for its time, it helped somewhat justify the advent of the expensive CD-drive in personal computing.
- Myst DS sucks notably due to the small size of the DS screen: apparently the switches are incredibly hard to find due to that.
Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian will be the hit this week. In fact, it will be one of the best licensed games in years.
Why? Two words - talking lion.
You can't blow a formula using talking lions. People love talking lions. Seriously, you know you all want to meet a talking lion.
