Once again thanks to Alkaline from the neogaf forums for the Summary.
Summary
– The two receives five more games today, making them even busier than they were last week.
– Capcom have find it difficult to get stores to stock Zack and Wiki – very limited. Chobot and Peer found it different to get their hands on the game. Disappointed because the game is so awesome.
EA Playground
– Matt reviewed it – 6.6
– Wii Sports title that isn’t as good as Wii Sports.
– Overpriced at $49.99
– Bozon likes the slot-car racings, Matt thinks the paper-airplane game is ok.
– Confused as to why MySims and EA Playground didn’t have Mii Support given their distinct styles.
Cosmic Family
– Matt reviewed it – 5.0
– Really meant for young ages.
– Static 2D backdrop with little imagination.
– Has an MS paint-ish program to draw things which is kind of cool.
– Very limited and simple tasks.
– Severely overprived at $49.99
– Don’t bother with it.
Bleach
– Bozon reviewed it – 6.3
– “Waggle-fest”
– First effort of a 3D fighter on Wii – pretty meh.
– There are much better fighters – DBZ 3 and Naruto.
Dragon Ball Z 3
– Bozon is pretty optimistic about it (gave first game 8.3)
– Kind of unconventional – flying combat, more based on building up super attacks.
– Tons of characters in the game.
– Should turn out really good.
Summary:
– Teases us a bit about MP3…. just cut to the chase. – SWEET! Metroid Prime music and discussion. – 12:01AM Sunday Night/Monday Morning Review. Review is done …

Q: Which title gives you most hope for the Wii?
A: Super Mario Galaxy. “Felt fresh”. Liked how it merges old and new.
Q: Of all games shown, which are you most excited for?
A: Galaxy. Likes the rest of the holy trinity and Manhunt 2. 1 or 2 behind closed doors games that have yet to be shown. 1 of them is hardcore gamer oriented. Let it slip that Nintendo was making it.
