Nintendo's New Quiz Game

http://cube.ign.com/articles/658/658610p1.html

Nintendo has thus far pushed its adult-oriented game lineup to owners of the DS and Game Boy Advance. GameCube will at last be joining in on the fun with an all new quiz game from the big N titled Densetsu no Quiz-Ou Kettei-Sen (Legendary Quiz King -- Championship).

Set for Japanese release on 12/8, Densetsu no Ouiz-Ou features 8000 questions across a variety of genres, including sports, movies and food. The game is meant to feel like a quiz show, as you use the GameCube microphone for responses. Score big during quiz sessions, and you'll earn trophies and other bonus items as a reward.

Densetsu no Quiz-Ou will feature support for up to four players and is scheduled for release only in Japan at this time.

This game sounds pretty interesting, it really makes good use of the microphone. Though the drawback is, you would need to own a copy of Mario Party 6 or 7, since I believe the microphone cannot be bought seperately.

Hmm... if only it was online... Nintendo should really make better use of the broadband adaptor (I'm tired of playing Phantasy Star lol).

Hmmm.... yes it would be been really cool with online features, but if it doesn't have those features, we would still have fun anyway playing with our friends in the same room!

(Densetsu no Quiz-Ou Kettei-Sen 2 on Revolution would definitely be online if made.)
