I'm still partial to Imagine:Master Chef on the DS. That one always makes me laugh for some reason.

At least it's good to see 3rd parties supporting Nintendo again.

I've got the Ubisoft game Imagine: Pet Vet for the DS (don't ask why! ;() and it's ugly, cheap, confusing and unplayable. A textbook case of shovelware, luring unknowing parents with a nice cover, and that's all there is...

Seeing the Imagine series moving onto the Wii is a natural step, but I've been burnt and won't be fooled again!

So if it wasn't for that you might have considered Imagine:Party Babiez?

I think I would let that one slide anyway, looks really dubious.


If the cover is nice, I might make the same mistake again...

Oh Kei, that's it could some one please smack Ubisoft upside the head with a large brick.

Seriously, while the Babies one kind of looks like it could be reasonable even if the concept reeks of shovelwear to uninformed parents, that Dogz one looks like they just ripped a DS screen and called it Wii. It's insulting that Ubisoft won't make a version of Assassin's Creed for Wii but then makes a DS version. Then they basically ban the new Prince of Persia from Wii. While this is all they try for Wii.

Worse still it isn't the graphics problem with the Wii, it seems Ubi hates Nintendo or something. Yah you remember last gen how PoP games would be on Xbox & PS2 first then like 6 months maybe a GameCube version would pop-up, well I do. Somethings rotten in Ubitown. I may not care about Ubisoft games but somethings wrong there.

I don't think ubisoft is that bad to the wii. It atleast tried to make the first good FPS(red steel), they published No more heroes(in NA), shaun white snowboarding isn't just a port and uses the balance board, and they said they are going to make a PoP spinoff for the wii.
