With a silk-tongued prosecutor in his face and a hangman's noose dangling over his neck, Guybrush must figure out how to defend himself against grave accusations. Meanwhile, the determined Marquis sets his sights on a new and far more attractive test subject. How on earth will the Mighty Pirate get out of this mess?

My Zoo™

Players: 1
ESRB Rating: E (Everyone)
Price: 500 Wii Points
Description: My Zoo is a relaxing animal sim that puts you in the shoes of an animal breeder, raising up animals you'd normally only dream of. All it takes is a Wii Remote™ controller for a simple, yet fulfilling, connection with nature. There are 12 animal types in total (four sold separately as add-on content). Select your favorites and nurture them to adulthood. Feeding them, petting them and cleaning up their messes are great ways to form a lasting bond. Each animal's personality will change depending on how you take care of it. Watch them get spoiled, turn into over-eaters and more as they grow on a daily basis. Some animals will even have a baby on occasion, and once it's born, you've got another mouth to feed. Game time passes much more quickly than real time, and the different animal types are active at various hours - some during the day and some at night. Sometimes it's fun to just kick back and watch what they do. So what are you waiting for? It's time to create your own personal zoo.

Id rather have Goonies II instead of Arcade version of Solomon, but thats just me

GigaRidley

Nothing that I have to get... although this does remind me-- I should play Escape From Monkey Island again. Good game, great combat system. Insult Swordfighting is the best innovation in point and click games ever.

RETURNING CALL OF DUTY PLAYER (Wii)

Conan the Librarian

This isnt "the internet" where you can just pick any game that's "been around for 30 years", even though its only "100KB" and have a company "give it to you for money". Whats wrong with you?

They release only a few types of games:

-Games we can easily get for cheap on a compilation.
-Bad sequals to a good game they wont release.
-Bad Arcade versions of otherwise good console games.
-Games for Sega Master System. 'nuff said. (kind of joking, kind of)

Stop wasting our time hoping for games you would actually enjoy. You woke me from several months of slumber.

LET THE PUZZY BITCH FEST BEGIN. SEE YOU IN 5 MORE MONTHS.

If they'd gave me contra or DDRagon II in the first 4 YEARS OF ME OWNING THIS SYSTEM, I might be more complacent
