At the very least, it seems like a solid filler item if you're getting something else cheap that doesn't qualify for free shipping.

$8.05 for the PSP version (personally I'd rather have a game portable)

or $8.54 for the PC version (hey, also more portable if you've got a notebook, plus it looks better):

Good game though.

Is this any good on the Wii? I really enjoyed it on all the other platforms.

I loved it on the Xbox, but it looks like some of the minigames have waggle controls added that make them frustrating. I hate waggle to replace button presses.

Sadly skipping on this; was looking forward to the wii version.

Played the Xbox version this evening to check... yes, still insanely fun. Want the Wii port so bad, but when the Xbox version is so perfect, the idea of bad control in the minigames is horrible.

I sort of hate all the mini-games period, especially that wretched dancing one. Even the swordfighting got really old, and the Xbox version added even MORE obnoxious button-pressing mini-games!

I think it's about time they do an entire new version of Pirates, hopefully without too much obnoxious button-pressing.

If anyone buys multiple copies of this game to get up to the free shipping mark, please contact me about trading away one of them... I just haven't found enough other stuff that I just have to have immediately to justify spending $16 more right now.
