When I saw the text saying cooperative multiplayer I though it will be easy then I was what the hell?!
It seems fun and simple, pretty good.

HELLSRIDER

I'd rather be SAILING.

Fitz Rhapsody

Wait, so this is a port of a PC game?

dawimp523

I just like the SURPRISE ZERG RUSH in the multiplayer bit.

Jonn

The free PC version is more fun than this appears. I love my Wii games but I'd never try to play Defend Your Castle without a mouse.

unmarkedone

Sounds like a lot of yanking around on the wiimote, I'll pass.

polarenvy

Meh. The game never really caught on with me. I blame my hate for defend missions in games, since this is basically just another defend mission.

Taco Bell™

Wow, the Co-op looks amazing at the end.

Shaverdian

A flash game turned Wiiware... I sure hope that's not a sign of things to come. Nothing against (good) flash games, but I can play those for free on my PC.

Nirual

I'd rather have Stick Arena, minus the hackers and lag.

walkman1022

I'd play this for $5

RedFive

No blood, no buy. Plus, it got boring after about half an hour or so.

orangedude

I loved the flash version of the game, I am probably going to get this.

subb

I don't think I'll be buying this one as I see it getting boring after a short while. I do dig the style though, kind of reminds me of Little Big Planet

Sandbox_Emperor

Not bad, but I don't like the style too much.
I'd rather have something like Tower Defense...

Bokusatsu_Tenshi

I like the "trash" design, but other than using a Wiimote instead of a mouse, it's no different than a PC game.

I thought the Wiimote did things beyond pointing. Use them...please!

boopadoo

$5 ... I'm in.

Dillenger69

looking just at that trailer only, I'm not sold yet. Like others have briefly mentioned already, I'd buy it if they add more enemies, more ways to dispose of enemies, and especially more stages/scenarios

onomeister

another flash game for the wii? pass.

Mii

@chacho: No, actually I spend less than that at McDonalds, perhaps you shouldn't be eating as much as you do.

Maldron

Now I dont know. I'm torn. I do love this game...but I can play it on the Wii already...for free, completely (somehow I got my full version web browser for free on my Wii. Did anyone else??). But the controls are wonky because the tip of the hand is the only part you can grab with. And since its so fat...its hard to get a grip, so to say. And the people stick at times. But now...if this was a DS game...there would be no thought. Whenever they port a computer game to the DS...its just pure pleasure!!

I Need New Brawl Friends...Any Takers?

4 player co-op sold it to me, I can't wait to defend my castle with 3 buddies.

BassForever

Hopefully splattery still works.

ph15h

multiplayer looks fun, though would still rather play it free online, even though it got boring after a while.

mbeck

Wii ware devs say Xbox Live Arcade is full of shit, and then charge $5 for an old flash game?

Heyyou27

Yeah, it got really old quick, especially the way I played. When you have 1000 something archers you don't even have to look at the screen anymore, just click go and come back in half an hour.

Pezdispenser

Does the flash version run full speed on a Wii through the Opera browser?

Applekid

They NEEEEED to bring Motherload to the Wii if they are doing more games.

StopTheOncoming

@TC:

I could say a lot about that quote involving tiring the wrist and bedtime but nevermind.

Wyld

A nice and good flash game for my wii.

...

Wyld

Cute, but I really don't want to play something that'll tire my wrist out before bedtime.

TC

@Maldron:
are you serious thats just 5 dollars, you spend more than that at Mcdonalds

chacho

sick.

tpacchia

I was meh until they said the magic words.

Co-op multiplayer.

I'm down.

Apreche

i dont get it when free flash games get ported to consoles for a price, and still look like free flash games.

dont want. but i do want this on wii ware:

+ Watch video

shouryuuken

I swear the Flash equivalent looks better than the WiiWare version. I also cringed when I saw in game UI (the customisation part looked good) who writes "helth"?

Sasuntsi|Davit

MEH!

marklip

I wasn't that interested until they came to the multiplayer. I'm sold.

Spiderbait

It does look cool. I worry that we've seen the only board however.

jay427

Coming soon: Penguin Toss!!

catapult37

It´s fun and all until you learn that with a few hundred mages, your magic power refills faster than you can use it converting enemies... Then it just gets boring (the original version, at least)

Garcia

That looks like a pretty good deal for $5 or 500 Wii points. And the fact that you can have up to four-player co-op makes it even cooler.

KM91

@NeoAkira: You should watch the trailer again. ;)

kuraitenshikun

I was laughing at this game when I first saw the screenshots. Now I'm actually quite looking forward to it!

akwinters

Though I did love playing it the first time, I couldn't see playing it more than once.

Inhert

'Helth'

His heart melted three times that day.

Adrock4

@chacho: That's too much for my tastes, then.

Maldron

The idea seems great, the execution looks like a friggin mess!

Wolf_Dog

The trailer was pretty well done IMO. But some gripes I have with it (and I haven't played the original so if I say something dumb just ignore it):

From the trailer it seems like there's only 2 types of enemies. The little men with the tree trunks and the giant round-shaped guys. Also it looks like the only way they attack your castle is by running at it directly. I didn't see any long-distance attacks or aerials attacks or anything else.

The other problem I had with it is that apparently the only thing that happens when the difficulty is raised is that more enemies show up, as opposed to more difficult enemies. Although I can't really blame the maker of this game as that seems to be quite a common trend in many video games.

THe last problem I had is that there's really only 3 ways of fighting: You pick up and throw them, you erase them, or you toss them into your castle. From the looks of it, erasing them seems too time-consuming and should be used sparingly. So really you only have 2 ways of defending your castle.

Good concept, nice trailer, I just wouldn't buy the final product.

NeoAkira

I'm starting to wonder if the Wii's poor online multi-player support are actually working to its advantage in the downloadable-games arena.

There seems to be a ton of support for WiiWare. Are developers more willing to bring this contnet forward when they don't feel like they have to have multi-player support and an online leaderboard to compete?

elementary

So we have a game like this on PC, a game like this on WiiWare, and game like this PSN. XBL Arcade is truly lacking in the fort-defending genre...

thebetamax

The original was fun for a little while but quickly got old. I can see this going the same way. Plus, it's been sanitised which is a bit of a shame.

Mire

Oh wow, I remember playing this years ago...

ThreeLeafIvy

Morphine16

No thank you. Not this time.

goldwings

Neeto!

drywaller79

@Maldron: .
is only 500 wii points.

chacho

Wow, cute and clever indeed. However, I would prefer to play it on my browser or DS.

alecpyron

I can kinda see myself not liking the controls.

wrist ache and all that

Ryumeka

The original was pretty fun, I dont know about this version.. might be fun with the wiimote.

pcgecko85

I will most certainly be taking up arms and defending my castle!

TheRubin

art style looks cool, but im not too sure if the fun factor would last enough

darktorns

Damn that was a lot of people at the end of it.

It's as you say, cute and clever. Now it mostly comes down to price.

Maldron

I'll be defending my castle on May 12th.
