Also, for those curious as to how the game will play out, there is a small online demo available at the developer's website
http://maxandthemagicmarker.com/
That demo is what helped me decide to get the game, and I have not been disappointed.

Majora, that sounds bad. Are you sure it's the game and not your system? I've had no issues at all so far, the game runs perfectly on my Wii.

@Koto: Indeed.

So sweet.

Sometimes I think N does NOT want people to buy WiiWare games. They could do much better at promoting and showing the great games out there.

This could be interesting.

So far I've had no problems playing Magic Marker. I'm in the last world now, and it's been a smooth ride. Not a single freeze or framerate drop. I wonder if there is a difference between Wiis...

But yeah, NoE needs to get itself into gear, and I'm not even going to start on the store's interface

Anyway, Max and the Magic Marker is a great game. You guys in the states have a gem to look forward to.
