Edit: Something for nkbswe5 or other people who like harvest moon but I'm lazy so I will steal quote another site

Europe will finally be getting Harvest Moon Magical Melody, but it has made the hop over to the Wii for their release. Rising Star Games (publisher) has a page up for the game, and (very tiny) boxart which displays a wifi logo. Will there be some online functionality for the title, or is it just a screwup?

[Jono]

if it's online, i will get it. if not then no

anyone up for strikers?

[Sam_Harris]

I would but my Wii T.V has gone ka-put so yeah I think flip might be up for a game though if you wanna pm him

[deity_link]

Yay for Harvest Moon although I prefer the handhelds

[Jono]

really?

I heard off someone harvest moon was good so i download'd it for my emulator (friends of mineral town) .It's a big game and instead of playing through the gba version i thought i'd wait till the wii version came out.

is it worth the time and effort for friends of mineral town?

[Sam_Harris]

Honestly I haven't played any Harvest moon games but it turns out that the WiFi symbol is a mistake but how do they make mistakes like that it is crazy

They're all pretty much the same, except new character and dialogue and 'twists'.

Wifi was wrong cause THEY HATE ME

Manhunt 2 info!
You'd have to have pretty high hopes to be expecting that Rockstar's forthcoming gore-fest, Manhunt 2, will make its way to Australian shores without bearing the bullets of censorship, but in the case of this game, Australian gamers aren't going to be the only ones to fall victim to the classification process.

The British Board of Film Classification has announced that it has rejected Manhunt 2 on both Wii and PlayStation 2 (the PSP version was not submitted for classification) for release in the UK, with the decision - the first in ten years since Carmageddon - meaning that it cannot be legally supplied anywhere in the region.

Just import it, do you really think the aussie goverment is going to come to your house and take it off you ?

[nkbswe5]

I cant import it, it wont work on Aussie Wii's...

[Sam_Harris]

Import it from where it is kinda hard if you haven't got a modchip or Wii freeloader hey wait that doesn't work arr thats stupid they already have a version that does GC games on the Wii why hype different packaging!
