We Cheer for Europe in early 2009 News

Wii News by Robert Purchese

7 August, 2008

505 Games is bringing Wii cheerleading game We Cheer to Wii in early 2009.

This Namco Bandai outing turns two Wiimotes into a pair of pom-poms, which are waved around in time to music on the screen.

That music, incidentally, features the likes of teeny-boppers Hilary Duff, KC & The Sunshine Band and Paramore.

Cheerleaders can be created from scratch and then customised with various provocative outfits, and additional dancers can be unlocked later in the game to form squads.

We Cheer has a Workout Mode with tailored exercise programs and a virtual fitness instructor, as well as a Cheer Off multiplayer mode for two or four players.

What do we want? We Cheer gallery. When do we want it? Fired?

Sold.

I reckon this could be good fun if they do it right. Which they won't, but there you go. It's not too far removed from Samba Di Amigo, but with manga babes in bikinis instead of monkeys, is it?

It would be an instant buy for me, if it was a Japanese style Ouendan. Frankly, I just want more Ouendan. I finally beat Ready Steady Go with the Cheer girls last week, so I'm passionately burning for another sequel. Osu

Hey, cheerleaders rule! See: Ouedan/Elite Beat Agents.

This, however, looks a bit crappy.

505 games WTF!?

What next Nippon Ichi does a We love Swimming game?

On that note, does Nintendo hold the sole rights to have Wii in the title like Wii love cheerleading? - I just realised this is a dumb question of course they do. "duh"

Why wait? Traded one a couple of weeks ago, Gamestation and Blockbuster will give £120 trade-in on the console on it's own.

£120? Sweet deal...not sure what you'd get over here in Ireland. I must look into it.

Ah didn't realize you was in Ireland I'm sure you would get similar deal though. In all honesty though I wouldn't wait until Christmas, many people seem to be getting rid of Wii at the moment so I don't think there will be a shortage then. The Blockbuster I went to had LOADS of 2nd hand Wii.

You all roll your eyes in disgust, but thousands of Wii owning little girls probably just wiid their pants in excitement..

oh and rolls eyes at the usual "Waah! there's nothing to play on the Wii" comments...

This game looks amazing, and anyone that says otherwise is wrong. So it has cheerleaders? Boo hoo. If it was in a different skin and called Ouendan you people would be queuing at midnight to grab a copy. This is exactly how Ouendan on Wii would work.

Look at the gameplay, not the graphics. It's like listening to a bunch of 10 year old boys who still think girls smell and anything they like is by default, lame. Honestly.

When they showed the trailer in EB Games yesterday, I had to look away from the screen in embarrassment.

I remember posting things like this in defense of the Wii..."The games will come", I kept assuring myself. Little did I know *what* games where coming. Cheerleading, beach sports and cooking sims ahoy!

my philosophy: keep the wii around for MADWORLD, CONDUIT, ANIMAL CROSSING 2, FATAL FRAME 4, TALES OF SYMPHONIA 2, WII SPORTS RESORT, PIKMIN 3, DEAD RISING, RED STEEL 2, WARIOLAND SHAKE IT, TENCHU 4, SKY CRAWLERS, unannounced 1st party games, VC games, wiiware games, GCN games, or ps2/psp/dreamcast ports that i might like.

afterall, just because eurogamer does an article about WE CHEER doesn't mean i have have to buy it, play it, be interested in it, or read about it. it doesn't mean that other games i might like will be cancelled either. it just means there's another game for a different group of wii owners.

still, it's always fun to read numerous (ex)wii owners threatening to sell there wii after articles such as this. i'm no fanboy though, feel free to sell it. you could get a high end 360 or a ps3 with the profits and enjoy their many great games. it's great to be a multi-system owner(and i'm just one of the 'casual' gamers)

This is a new low.

Its kind of funny that something like this and madworld would sit on the same shelf in a games shop, absolutely hilarious.

Keep it real and buy the latter when its released, you owe it to the industry.
