I've owned this for a while - and definitely agree it's a fantastic package. Very nice to have a physical copy of the Bit.Trip series. (But skip the 3DS version because it's simply not a solid port.)

Same for me on all points.

Just cuz we are talking about Wiiware games that were expanded to disc version, I'll throw out TV Show King had a followup called TV Show King Party on disc. I've read they were all reviewed OK but that's one genre I don't spend much time with.

I in agreement that disc releases of digital games (especially compilations or expansions) are grand. Did Teslagrad ever come out in the States on disc?

First, I have never heard of TV Show King Party (Wii) in my life. There aren't many eBay listings, but there are several within 100 miles of me. Accordingly, it appears to be at least semi-rare.

Second, Teslagrad did get a physical release for the PS3 in North America. It is a very good game, and I own a copy. It is also inexpensive to acquire it on Amazon, but it is very difficult to find "in the wild." Along with the PS3 Syberia collection, I expect it to be a collector's item in a few years. (I have been wrong about these things in the past, however.)

For anyone who hasn't bought one yet the Amazon Warehouse has a few of those Logitech Wii Speed Force Wireless Wheel used "Like New" for $5.53 which is about as low as I could ever see them going since it would cost an average sellers $12+ to ship most likely :P.

So lets talk Let's Sing 2016. This game was a super late release Wii title which had limited production numbers. About a month after the games release, it was recalled across the country.

The general thought was that the microphone that was included was crappy. The flyer says the disk may not load.

The game became pretty hard to find due to the recall.

A few days ago I was snooping around amazon.ca and found this review:

Image

Say what! Nudity in a Wii game. Nudity in a game that got recalled. hmm... interesting.

After some investigation:

Not only that, but this uncensored music video, seems to be the only uncensored version in existence. I couldn't find a single copy of this version of the video on youtube or any other streaming site. Even videos marked "uncensored" showed no nudity. Whoops. I guess we have our first and only Wii game with Nudity and a good reason for a recall.

I now begin my quest to acquire Let's Sing 2016 on the Wii.

Do the other systems' versions have titties, too?

Maybe the parent's should have noted the T for Teen rating before giving it to their "young kids".

I do wonder if the developer did this on purpose though, knowing it was a late release and nothing would likely come of it...or even possibly suspecting it might drive sales?
