Closing Comments
I wouldn't qualify Wii Music as an abysmal failure. The truth is, I like some of the concepts powering the game. The ability to dynamically alter music using a variety of instruments. The fact that you can layer together different songs and really create your own style. And the integration of Mii avatars, not to mention WiiConnect24 support, definitely add further polish to the fun and simple presentation. I think for all of the above reasons, kids may really latch onto Nintendo's latest effort (although I feel a little sorry for parents who must endure the cacophony of noises coming from their child's bedroom).

That said, I think most adults will quickly recognize that Wii Music is little more than a noise maker tied to a series of gestures and grow bored of the experience in a matter of hours, if not minutes. The controls aren't particularly intuitive , but gimmicky, and the selection of music is fundamentally flawed with both dated public domain songs rendered in equally dated MIDI. That Guitar Hero World Tour's complementary modes -- namely Mii Freestyle and advanced studio -- completely obliterate the entire Wii Music package is proof just how much Nintendo's game either doesn't do or doesn't do well.

6.0 Presentation
Polished interface and music video backdrops, Mii integration and WiiConnect24 support. List of songs is awful. MIDI renditions even worse.
5.0 Graphics
Similar to Wii Sports, Wii Music rocks a style so simple that it borders on barren, but it's also very clean and fluid.
4.0 Sound
Ugh. Really disappointing. A soundtrack fit for an elevator, all rendered in archaic MIDI. The entire track list could fit easily on an N64 cartridge.
5.0 Gameplay
Gimmicky. At times, seemingly pointless. Kids will love making noise, but everyone else will grow bored with the experience shortly after it begins.
5.0 Lasting Appeal
60 instruments and just as many songs, not to mention the ability to trade renditions with friends. There's even a four-player jam mode. It's all there, but the core package just isn't that fun.
5.0
Meh OVERALL
(out of 10 / not an average)

Daar ben ik dus wel erg benieuwd naar, vanwege de homebrewkant. Het zou zeer zonde zijn om dat te verliezen.

Remember fun? It's that thing we used to talk about before polygons, hype and multi-million dollar polish took precedence. There's a certain irony then that while you'd be hard pushed to find anything realistically approaching the latter in Disaster: Day of Crisis, it manages to deliver the former in huge, preposterous spades. And preposterous is just about the only accurate way to describe Disaster. From its hackneyed dialogue and B-movie story trappings to its incessant set-pieces and near nonsensical mish-mash of game mechanics, Day of Crisis really shouldn't be anything more than phenomenally rubbish. Yet, against all odds, it's one of the most entertainingly daft game's we've played this year.

(..)

Generally though, despite its rough edges, there's an incredibly unique, hugely visceral experience to be had with Day of Crisis. In terms of blockbuster spectacle, Disaster's an absolute belter with appropriately cheesy dialogue and voice-acting, a fast-moving, preposterous plot and some truly bombastic sound design. Visually too, it's a generally impressive piece of work. Characters are well-animated with lip-synching and facial animations bringing the B-movie melodrama to life. What's more, outdoor areas are packed full of detail. Admittedly, polygons are mostly lumpy and textures aren't always crisp but you really won't care when your Wii starts firing on all cylinders. Although environments can range from the sublime to spectacularly ugly, disasters themselves are rendered with mighty aplomb. You'll genuinely feel the tension amid the roaring flames, massive explosions, heaving water and disintegrating landmarks -- it's a remarkable piece of artistry and shows exactly what can be done on the console with some technically-frugal creativity.

That said, some people will absolutely detest Disaster: Day of Crisis. It's an awkward combination of extremes -- old-school adventuring burdened with new-fangled mini-game sensibilities; abstract game mechanics wrestled into a single plot- driven narrative; sometimes lackluster visuals and pacing thoroughly at odds with that bombastic spectacle and massive ambition. It's also fundamentally shallow, remarkably inconsistent and chronically naff. Like the disaster movies it takes inspiration from though, Day of Crisis is ultimately more than the sum of its parts. When it works, it's a relentless, thrilling assault on your senses; a huge grin of game. And when it doesn't, when it starts to wobble precariously on its own flimsy parts, it's still compulsive in its creativity, inexplicable in its uniqueness and, most importantly, one thoroughly fun ride.

F-Zero zal vast nog wel verschijnen. Maar daarmee wachten ze vast op de motionplus, want dat spel heeft echt supernauwkeurige en snelle besturing nodig. De huidige wiimote heeft een kleine maar voor zo'n soort spel onacceptabele vertraging.
