Toy Story Mania on Wii??

[3boymthr]

Hi,

I saw a blurb on this game in DS' Boy's Life Magazine. Which said the game was coming out this fall but didn't give any other information.

Has anyone read any advance reviews?

I'm thinking this might be a fun game to pre-order to get for christmas if it's anything like the ride - which my DSs loved.

It will be released on September 15.

It will be, essentially, the same 9 games as the ride, plus I think 6 additional games.

The Wii remote will be used in different ways to create the different projectiles. Sometimes, you will just press a button to release the projectile, sometimes you will "fling" the remote, sometimes you will have to make a "tossing" motion (like in the Alien ring toss game), sometimes you will hold it like a dart and make a "dart throwing" motion (for the balloon popping game), etc.

In addition to the games, there will be 3-D BONUS rounds, where you have to create movements to make animations happen for additional points.

At the end of each round, your score will be tallied up, using the same graphics and "points system" (i.e. with the animals represented by points) as in the ride.

It looks SUPER neat. I am SO buying it, both for myself and for my 5 year old, who LOVES the ride at DCA and who JUST started playing Wii (Sports Resort).

I won't be able to wait until Christmas. I'm buying it for DS as a "back to school---Kindergarten transition" gift, to sort of give him a way to wind down when he gets home from school, before he starts on his homework each day.

I found this morning that you can pre-order it on Amazon for $39.99 and either get free shipping or have it delivered on the release date (9/15) for about $6 more.

OMG I am so excited. I hadn't seen this advertised yet. How many players is it for?

This is very AWESOMEI emailed the thread to my DS in college and told DD this morning...we absolutely love TSM yet aren't able to do it more than twice on a normal trip because of the popularity. DH and I plan to buy it for the family.

I saw it in Target last night...if you pre-order it for $1 (and pay additional balance when you pick it up) you can get a $5 gift card when you pick it up!

It's 38.99 on Amazon.com right now and you get a 5.00 MP3 download credit emailed to you if you purchase any video gaming items, didn't read if it works with pre-orders though? Still, great price and if it does go any lower they price match it for you before shipping.
