2D games are great and all, but those graphics suck. lol

If they're going to make a 2D game on Wii at least make it look like appealing...

there are a few more high-er res screens from IGN. I also am starting to think it will be a budget title as it is not developed in house and only has 20 main levels (each level having many secrets, blah, blah, blah)

I think a game like this should be a Wiiware title. Also the graphics aren't that good. Well we will see how it turns out.chocolate1325

I haven't actually played a Wario Land game I only played Super Mario Land 1 and 2. Also I can't see it being aanywhere near as good as 2D classics like Yoshis Island.chocolate1325
