Crap no Rygar screens but a Q4 07 release is enticing.

Q4 07 Rygar? Didn't expect that.

Super Swing Golf will be more of the same. They said they were working on making putting easier.

But the real big "fuck you" to lefties; they still aren't making the golfers left-handed! :bomb: How the hell hard can it be to move the character to the right side of the ball?!

Now, I'm sure others will come in here and say that doesn't matter, but it does.

No online either. I would've considered it if it had online play.

This Rygar is a port of the PS2 game with some new added stuff:

I could care less about Super Swing Golf but Rygar on the Wii sounds like a good idea.

EDIT* A port? Oh man... well, I never did play the PS2 version.

Ah I had no idea it was just a port, that's a bit disappointing. I was hoping, for once, there would be something fresh for the Wii. If the controls work though and its priced at $30(and google checkout still works), I am so there.

Rygar screens. I just don't see this being a port. I hope something was lost in translation, maybe they ported the engine or parts/levels of the PS2 game. I will remain skeptical that its a new game until some screens or a Tecmo release confirms it.

Supposedly those are from the new mode added to the game, the main game is just a port. We shall see.
