Wii #0626 - Opoona (USA)

[shiftyraccoon]

It's in 4:3 yuck!

I played it a little, and I find the moving a little annoying.
Opoona is not walking, but almost flying over the floor with great speed. a little hard to control at first.

I'm only at the beginning, I have to go to school on 2nd floor now, I hope I'll be used to the control soon.

I'm actually in my harvest-moon-like game type, I think I'll like this one too .

Ive been playing this for a while, and at first its really not impressive at all, but it grows on you. It reminds me of some ps1 game. I really like it now though, fishing/farming/etc are all very creative and the story is alright. Just got the pink brother on my team, still a mystery as to where the yellow sister went/why.

Is it really only in 4:3???

And I heard this was an RPG for little kids which is why the controller is the way it is.

 

[Bob Evil]

No, it's not aimed at children ... the control option was an experiment ... most people end up using the classic controller, if they have, it seems.

very quirky and very japanese, but overall a really nice game. This is a game I am very happy was ported state side. However this game will definitely not appeal to everyone, its definitely a niche game and will appeal only to certain types of gamers.

Mine finally arrived in the mail today ... have done the first couple of jobs, got the hoverboard, bought some bits & bobs to upgrade my bonbon ... am really enjoying it.

Playing with the classic controller, and glad of it lol

Zepline is definitely right about the niche nature of this game ... but, maybe, when more player reviews appear, it could turn into something of a sleeper hit.

Annoyed with the control scheme (classic controller works well

) but everything else is fine so far. The graphic style is very unique and colorful.

Maybe this will quell my obsession with SSBB for a while...

this might be a smidgen off topic but does anyone know the pw for the a.b.t.t. rar of this game? I can't figure it out for the life of me....

thanks

nm i got it.

damn I forgot to brickblock it and already erased the iso...

will it create duplicate channels on my PAL wii, even if the block update - option for my wiikey is on?

I've got 3.2E and never installed any Brawl update or anything

 

[Cyan]

yes, it will install files you haven't yet.
The Wiimenu is fine if you are up to date. but it will add the weather and news.

If you have Wiikey, you can update to 1.9s and activate the "block update" feature. I think it will work.
or use Channel Remover 2 after playing.




Edit, about the game :
I played a little opoona, I don't look at it like an harvest moon, or a daylife game.
for me there are no option I can choose to do or not. (even friendship is automatic)
the game is more like a linear RPG with minigame event (like serving people who ask you for diner).

I was also blocked at the mine. they said "go to the mine and stay there until we say so", and I was leveling a lot there but nothing happened XD

it's still funny, but I'm a bit disappointed ^^

 

[asta]

you "think"? ^^

i just wanna be sure, because I don't want to use the channel remover...

When you get to the mine, you talk to the miners ... they will tell you about the now-disused mining licence, and who to talk to about that licence.

Once you talk to the right person, back in town, the game opens up, and becomes more free-form.

If you haven't gotten as far as going after the mining licence, you haven't even scratched the game ... it takes approx 70 hours to do everything ... there are loads of licences, and side-quests, and mini-games.


If you are playing this on PAL machine, just BrickBlock it, and RegionFrii it, and it will play ... no worries.
