Simple Wii Vol. 6 THE Wai Wai Combat is a cute-looking third-person shooter (in the style of Resident Evil 4) with Wiimote aiming and an emphasis on multiplayer. The game can be played by up to four people on one system, or up to six people online. The game looks pretty simplistic, both in terms of its cel-shaded style and its objective (shoot each other). It does feature various multiplayer modes like capture the flag.
Simplicity would be very welcome in this genre, to be honest. We dropped out of multiplayer 3D shooting games when we couldn't find anyone to play Doom with over our 14.4k BPS modem.

That looks surprisingly fun. And if the online play is good I'll gladly pick it up.

This looks good for friend code action. It would be nice to play with a select group of folks. Not to say that I am not loving the MOH Heroes 2 online....You may have killed me before. I am Zkilldozer.

GOD YES. Please tell me this is coming to the U.S. I need a non-military FPS/TPS so I can get rid of my copy of Red Steel (I don't know why, I just don't play army shooters.) This looks like the Kirby Air Ride of Third Person Shooters. And I fricken love Kirby Air Ride.

If I understand correctly these retail as budget titles, but rarely see the light of day outside Japan. I would love to see a budget shooter of this nature hit NA.

I hope we see this in the US then. Apparently they're the publisher of the Puzzle Quest games here in the US.

I was thinking Haruhara Haruko from FLCL, but maybe that's cuz I like FLCL more than Naruto.

If this was cheap I'd pick it up for some online action.
But then again, I love picking up cheap things for action.

I'd so buy this if "emphasis on multiplayer" doesn't automatically mean "stopps beeing fun in single player mode after 2 hours".
Really, I love that simplified graphics style that sees a renaissance with the Wii, it reminds me of 8 and 16bit days, where developers also had to make the best out of a systems limited graphics capabilities… and made stunning looking games.

Love the concept! I'd love to play this casually with friends or relatives. Here's to hoping it makes it to Europe!
