Being a huge fan of the Sim series, I'm excited about being able to purchase this game with my Wii tomorrow (assuming I have the money for it; I haven't checked my bank account in a while >_>). This game is pretty much everything about the Sims that I like with more improvements. I love the graphical style and the taking away of the need feature? I love it. I understand that the Sims is a life sim, but really, The Sims 2 stressed me out so much because I was too busy doing things and tending to the needs of my Sims instead of doing what I actually wanted to so a little break from the "ZOMG I GOTTA PEE! ZOOBLOO!" will be nice.

I also love that you essentially build the town up, and you build your own furniture and everything. It seems like it'll make matching house themes much easier.

So, what do you guys think? Think it'll flop or be fantastic? Anyone actually played it in the whole day it's been out?

I'm getting it too! It's coming out in europe on Friday and I'm getting it on Saturday.

Can't wait! One of the best things about it is everyones Town will be unique :thumbsup:

Have you played animal crossing? It's similar to My sims in some ways.

If it's anything like the other Sims games I'm going to get bored with it in less than a minute. I'm going to try the DS version tonight to see if it's any good, but I doubt it.

I've never really liked Sims games, although I've also never tried any of them. I'm more interested in Animal Crossing Wii, the GCN one was kinda amusing for a while.

Meh, I don't know what else they can do with Animal Crossing, really. They've pretty much done it all with Wild World. I suppose we'll see, though.

BAH! I wasn't able to get MySims with my Wii cause stupid Walmart didn't have it. It sucks that Walmart was the only place that had a Wii, cause I know for a fact that Besbuy and EB Games have MySims. Now I gotta wait till Christmas, cause my birthday money is going towards Radiant Dawn!

I don't have a Wii but there's a version of this on DS? I'll try it on that then.

EDIT: Okay, I've played a minute of it and I have to say it's very much an Animal Crossing with humans. Hell, when I got off the boat at my town there was a Sim there in a dog costume. The item slots in your luggage also look the exact same as AC. I don't think this is going to be what you want it to be though, considering you said it's like The Sims 2 without the needs. This is more like the other handheld Sims games where you only control one person. Unless, the Wii one is different, and only the DS one is gay like that. x[

Hokkai No Oni and Bidoofsaresassy....My Sims is Nothing like the pc sim games, If I didn't know any better and the charecters didn't speak in sim language I wouldn't think it was a sims game at all.

Yeah, like I said, it's animal crossing with real people and a couple other things more you can do. Seems kinda weird, I might try it more later when I have nothing else to do but I would really like a Sims game like the PC ones for DS, if they don't have one already. This is just kinda stupid.

The hand held Sim games are crap. I would never in my life base an opinion on them, but it was the only resource to the game that you had, so it's understandable. Anyway, I'm, as I said, a huge fan of The Sims, so even if it's bad, I'll still probably get it just to form my own opinion.

I haven't heard much about MySims, but I really want to play it once I can afford a Wii. It looks like an über-cuter Animal Crossing with little chibi fellows instead of little chibi animals. And I loved Animal Crossing, so it seems to be a done deal.

Though the fellows look alot like Miis...do you import your Miis into the game for MySims?

Now that I've had a chance to play it, I agree it's nothing like the Sims. And actually, it was never meant to be from what I've read online.

However, I think I prefer Animal Crossing Wild World.

I got the game and it's great. It has the same base as animal crossing but apart from that they are nothing alike.

The official Nintendo magazine Uk wrote this in their review

It's better than Animal Crossing and Harvest Moon in almost every way, while also being a completly different kind of game. A little Confused? Play it and Love it. It's as simple as that

and I kinda agree with them....but I still love animal crossing! smile.gif

I don't think any game will ever take Harvest Moon's place in my heart, so I'll never accept that, for the record XD

From what I've heard, it sounds like a good idea...
