E3 07: More Zack & Wiki Gameplay

Although I was essentially sold but slightly mystified by the last Zack & Wiki gameplay footage to come out of E3 '07, this video really sealed the deal. Unfortunately, the embed code from GameTrailers.com points to the wrong video, so follow this link to see the full video. Little hairy monkey men with scary faces engaging in primitive dance? Mysterious cauldrons of soup eaten with skull bowls?? Water slides??? I'm seriously on the point of spontaneous combustion everytime I take a look at this game. Love, LOVE the cel shaded and colorful world, and it is games like this that make me happy that and remind me why I still play video games. It's all for that sense of amusement, adventure and accomplishment. If you don't want to play this game, even a little, you have gotten too old and far tooserious.
E3 '07 has turned out to be a great year for pirate-based games, especially on the more realistic end, so it's nice to see this take. And any game with fishing in it is automatically a winner in my book, especially if you can catch a fish as big as this one. Can't wait to explore the island of treasure with such a cute pair of troublemakin' pirates. The only thing that would make me happier at this point as a Wii owner is final proof that One Piece: Unlimited Adventure is definitely coming to the states. Can you hear my plea, oh great pirate Lord?








Definitely looks like it has the potential to be good, though I hope they change (or remove) the usage of the Muslim phrase "Allāhu Akbar" in the background during the sequence involving the (what I assume are) native cannibals. That could definitely cause some problems.
I'm dying for this game.
I really hope this isn't one of those great titles that ends up selling nothing because no one knows what it is.
