Thoughts on Muramasa: The Demon Blade

classic 3d gameplay

Suppose you mean classic 2d.

I think the game looks like the most exciting thing in games I've seen in about two years, and only making it for the Wii is a huge mistake.

I think so too. I don't have a Wii, but I want this game. I really like Odin Sphere and GrimGrimoire and I wish this would see a PS2 or PC release as well. Of course, maybe games like this will convince me I should buy a Wii. There are more and more Wii games that sound interesting to me as the system develops: Muramasa, A Boy and His Blob remake, Mega Man 9, Boom Blox, Lost Winds, Mario Galaxy, Klonoa remake, Punch-Out!, etc.

I just talked to a friend of mine I am attending a benefit with tomorrow. Turns out she has a copy of this she has yet to open (or so she says). Needless to say, I will be borrowing it.

Sounds great

Post your thoughts once you played some of it.

Tragedy - I fired up the game and after the tutorial, it gives me a "disc is dirty" error. Until I get a disc cleaner I wont be able to play. But it flows well and supports the Gamecube controller.

Do you know or remember if it supports the d-pad on the classic controller, or does it require the analog stick? If it supports the d-pad then I'm really looking forward to playing it with my Super Famicom classic controller.

Nice. I hope the platinum membership for Club Nintendo gives this out in the states.

On a more related note, I'm glad the game flows well.

Sadly I do not have a Classic Controller, I do however have a Hori stick (which is the same thing mechanically). So I will try that out tonight. A coworker has a spare cleaning disc he said I can have, so I will try that tomorrow night.

Anything else yall want me to try in the first 5 - 10 minutes of the game? I have the disc until Wednesday night.

Screenshots would be awesome
If you can get some, that would be great. The art is just so beautiful
