Oddly enough I loved the first one. So much so that is sort of sickens me that when I turn it on, it tells me that i've clocked 20+ hours into it. For a casual game about diving I was completelt surprised I got (and still am) into it as much as I was (and am).

I just might preorder at GameStop when I go preorder my Bioshock 2 and God Of War 3.

I absolutely loved the first game, so getting the second for $30 and with a WiiSpeak is an amazing deal! Thanks for the post as it's easy to overlook the small print on Amazon's page about the bonus pack-in.

This game is not for everyone though. If you love sea animals and ocean explortion, it's a fantastic experience. However, everyone else will likely be bored to death within minutes.

Gonna need Wii Speak for Monster Hunter Tri anyway. May as well get a chill-out game that might impress me. I dig the ocean.

I'm usually all for bundled accessories, but I don't see myself using the wii speak for anything.

Considering only two games even support Wii Speak it does seem kind of worthless.

One thing that bugs me about the Amazon order page is that the order itself says nothing about the Wii Speak bundle. How would you even know that you would get one on release day the way they are doing it. At least at GS you show the picture on the box.

I wouldn't worry about Amazon not honoring what is on their product page, but I'm guessing there is only one version with the bundle right now.

Yeah, I know. I would just feel better if the actual order title stated Endless Ocean with Wii Speak like the Gamestop title does.

Still up in the air on it right now though. Don't really know if I or my kids would take too much time with this since we have never played anything quite like it.

I preordered. I liked the first one (which is now ridiculously expensive and difficult to find) so this is a great deal. Thanks for the heads up.

So is wii speak confirmed for Monster Hunter 3 yet? If so I'm buying this.

Isn't this the third thread of this on CAG? The second thread already covered $30 Amazon + Wii Speak

My mom and I each preordered this weeks ago and going to try out the Wii Speak during multiplayer. Looking forward to it.

I pre-ordered from Amazon to get the Wii Speak added on. I'm more confident that Amazon will actually include it, as opposed to GS which seems to like to randomly screw people out of their pre-order bonuses.

I love the first game, and I'm just astounded at some of the prices that it goes for. You think it would get a reprint as a budget title for $15-20.

I count myself lucky when I got the first game for cheap (~$17).
Since they are so close to releasing the second game, a re-release of the first game would mostly cut in to their own sales.

After they have their windfall from the second game, they could make a "special edition" that includes both games on one disc that recaptures the entire Blue Ocean market.

Why no reprint? It was already a budget game. The only reason EO1 isn't on this disc is developer greed or wish to not devalue the original copies. Both games combined only take up around 1/2 of a normal Wii disc.

Yeah, I wish publishers packed discs like torrentfreaks, too.

Only 1/2 of a normal Wii disc?!? There's room for a rip of Avatar too then! Greedy Nintendo, always holding back.

Thanks!
Ordered and took a screenshot of the item page, just in case.

Guess I'll bite. Dunno how much I'll be playing this one, but at least it *might* hold its value.

Already have a Wiispeak...wonder if I can unload it somewhere?

Just pre-ordered the Endless Ocean 2 Wii Speak Bundle yesterday at GameStop!

Got the original (hard to find) for my girlfriends little brother. If you no any young person who loves nature these games are perfect. Very educational and relaxing.

Ordered, good deal.
