Feeling blue for some reason? Then if we were you, we'd plan to make Pokemon Ranch your first WiiWare purchase when the service launches in the states in May.
We're not even exaggerating in that title, either -- this game hits new, extreme heights of chirpiness, not to mention cuteness. In fact, for our money, it's more adorable than this. And yes, even this. People, this game practically vomits rainbows. It caused stone-hearted cynics like ourselves to drop our usual sneering and actually smile. You can try to resist, but it will be futile. Squeal and "awwww" your way past the break for another three videos.

So I herd yuo liek mudkipz.
This looks like a true game of Pokemon Box. I'm not entirely sure I'll buy it yet. (goes back to Diamond)

It's absolutely precious, but what's the purpose of the game? Or is it just "Hey check it out, Pokemon being cute"?

That's the make-or-break point for that, i mean i have a shiny Buneary that I would like to show off, but if the game doesn't do anything, i couldn't bring myself to buy it
Although Electroplankton's pretty much the same way, and the Hanenbow stage on Brawl has pretty much sold me on that

So is electroplankton any good, because the stage in SSBB also made me want to buy EP

I'd probably download it. Ever since the first pictures came out I just really like how the Pokemon look like origami.

They kinda had to do that, since you're putting in the models for 493 Pokemon, then you're looking at at least two color schemes per 'mon (for shiny types), and so up to six for that one cocoon pokemon that can have different coats in Diamond and Pearl

YES YES and YES!
I can't imagine anything I would rather do than actually PLAY with my team from Diamond. Besides, i'm running out of box room.
