Wii Want Cricket

[kapilkjoshi]

I think gaming companies should develop more advanced cricket games for all platforms including "mac" and launch them in Asian countries simultaneously along with other nations as Cricket is another religion here....

[wowza1998]

a new game 'cricket' came out recently

[KANAKIS11JACK7]

yay new wii cricket game is out

[ferhansid]

ashes 09 is only comin gout in uk, australia nad us , nowhere else, depressing....

[marsunderscorefenix]

CCCCCCCCCRRRRRRRRRRRRIIIIIIIII­IIIIICCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCiiii­iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii­iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiKKKKKKK­KKKKKEEEEEEEEEEEETTTTTTTTTTTTT­TTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!

[signname]

EA get your shit together and make a Cricket game for the Wii. It will make u millions! I don't own a wii but I would def buy one tomorrow if a decent cricket game was on it

[dilsh4n3]

oui oui weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[rishyrishy]

wii want cricket!!!!

[lizardking112]

Bring on Cricket on the Wii, itwould totally sell out.  Definately

[savvides1]

Ashes Cricket 2009 is coming out on the Wii in August mate! It will either be a huge hit or a complete disaster depending on how they made it!

[WeKnowYoureThere]

cricket in any form = good. enough said

[DARTHeeek]

Wii will sell out in Australia if they make a sick cricket game. DO IT! DO IT NOW!!!!

[reymisteriocheese]

ashes 09 is out in august 7th for uk and 12th for aus

[DARTHeeek]

and the control theme does not include wii motion plus.... gay.

[afcchris1]

bloodybusta: I must agree with you, the game is less than satisfying for a cricket fan like myself. It's really only for parties, because it has a range of sports.

[ososment]

oh crikey give us a cricket game, a proper one not some friggin blimps without legs.

Bodyline bowling, full on.

[bloodybutsa]

big beach sports cricket on wii sucks hairy

[tabbaci]

EA had recently told that it is UNDER PRODUCTION....but the funny thing was it is being made in EA CANADA..lol

[swiv2d]

ricky pointing cricket, Brian Lara Cricket, Shane Warne Cricket all these franchises now all we need is Sachin tendulkar's Cricket, Yeah!

[aaronthegreen]

I'm a producer for a games studio in Australia and I recently met someone from England who told me that a lot of people want a cricket game for Wii.

It got me interested in the market opportunity, but I'm having trouble finding out exactly what the central desires are for the game and what precisely gamers want from this idea.

Both the WiiWantCricket and Aussie Nintendo don't work, so do you guys really want cricket?

[kaneb77]

yes we do!!!!!!

[issue345]

i want a wii cricket game soo bad i love cricket!

[hitenpatel227]

There has to be an official EA Cricket game soon or am gonna throw my Wii through the EA Offices! Please can somebody let them know as I don't think the millions of Wii owners who have suggested it seems to have gone on deaf ears!

[Misolina]

Yay! Wii want cricket!!

[bloodtyredeyes]

cricket on wii will be sic..

[KegRaider]

fsck oath i want a cricket game!!! Baseball just ain't aussie enough, and I'm over tennis.

Cricket is MADE for the Wii...

[mikebx21]

i jus got a wii for xmas and i was mad excited only to find out theres no cricket wtf i love cricket

[ovenmitboy]

Wii weally want cricket.

[footymanjames]

cricket on the wii would be sick me and ma m8 were talkin about it and we said it would be better on the wii that on the ps3 ps2 and xbox

[v4nstar123]

they have made a cricket game its called popcorn cricket look on game n hnv websites

[yahoowizard]

Why not create a cricket game for the Wii? European countries as well as Asian countries would love it, and it would be even better with multiplayer and all.

[gropermcgee]

Pretty sure Ricky Ponting/Brian Lara cricket is coming, either way 1st spetember 2008 is a release date for a wii cricket game that isn't beach sports.

[statictank]

that was big beach sports which has beach cricket but its crap in that. iv played cricket for a long time now and hope EA release a proper cricket game on the Wii

[ell595]

thats today?

[signature212]

well 1st of all im trying to reserve a wii fit thing, but i think if there was a cricket game on wii, it wouldnt be that responsive, lyk some other games on the wii

[charliebad]

Coming out next month!

[rocky2421]

ea cricket series is good but there is so much they can improve on the outcome of ever ball bowled are endless not just six shots.

They should see the baseball games and bowling and batting gameplay

[gromell]

yeah we want cricket on wii!!!!!!!!

[TangoCharlie27]

Well we'll have beach cricket as part of the Summer Sports package coming out on Wii in the, err, summer!!

There is a demo on YouTube

Tc

[08AndrewXd]

is there was cricket on wii i would buy 1

[rmnaam]

Ok, Here it is in clear way: Ma question is that Will Wii consoles read discs from UK? or Austrailia? Does tht make sense? or u want me to speak any other language, cuz thts the simplest way i can ask, if not, go take english classes. peace.

[wiz995]

Yep! What they said Freeload the program!

[wackyboy4]

Wii want cricket now do it do it do it

[6xAfridi]

guys this is wierd last time this guy came on youtube was a year ago anyone no wat happened

and where is the wiiwantcricket site

[riad19]

oh i'd love wii cricket!!!!! pay anything for it

[brethart91]

i´m excited to play that.

[jacksonpollock19]

have any of you guys played the Wii? its totally unresponsive, its only good for slugging a baseball bat, theres not complexity to it

[pspskuks]

please i want cricket on wii!!!!! the site doesnt work by the way..

[TangoCharlie27]

There is a similar dedicated cricket game out but its a unit that only plays cricket. It looks good but for me would be more clutter under the tv.

Tc

[TangoCharlie27]

It called RemoteTV cricket or something!

[dyb4life]

If WII brings a cricket game out, then I will buy A Nintendo WII just for the cricket game!

[goonerdotcom]

you so called it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[rmnaam]

Will Wii Cricket If made work in U.S.A? Cuz they made UK games and doesn't work in USA

[RicherkidDenu]

no probably not since most of the US doesnt even know what cricket is, and also they just don't like it

[rmnaam]

I got it that they (PPL In USA) donno whts cricket but i'm talking about games. I order Xbox games or ps2 games from other country and sum of them work. So my question is that if England made wii cricket and i order from England... den will it work in my USA Made wii console?

[neslupadans]

Freeloader?

[neslupadans]

Freeloader?

[SBrusich]

You're right majority of us dont know what it is (i dint anyways) but it looks awsome and its not like the US gamers are not willing to try it out (i thought it'd be awsome to learn to play on wii or real life). you cant steroetype everyone...we are not all the same :)

[rmnaam]

Thts great buddy, Hope every1 in US thinks like tht, at least cricket will be a known sport by tht way.

[SBrusich]

lol so do i.

[TangoCharlie27]

wii want a cricket game! Mario, get your finger out!

Tc

[C3Machinima]

You dont need to sign your comment Tc when it says your name at the top of the messaage

[29leetness]

And you don't need to tell him that. Perhaps he wants to.

[Unpreparedg]

if cricket comes on Wii im Buying it for sure..

My opinion is that they should make a Cricket bat kinda thing for it and you have to stick the Wii remote into it so its like a actuall bat..

[goldnbluekid]

kinda like guitar hero. i have a wii, mainly for the little bro, but if there was a cricket game id never get off....WII WANT CRICKET!

[badtreefood2]

cricket is better dan baseball man

[moldrat]

Baseball is gay. I haven't seen any cricket games, but if it's anything like baseball then it's probably gay too.

[ksingh11]

cricket is more action packed if u watch it u r going to love it !!!

[moldrat]

Something can be action packed and still be gay. Like gay sex, for example.

[shaheds786]

cricket is much better

[vikesh90]

baseball can't compete with cricket!...cricket is watched and played by way more people!

[evilwii99]

baseball is better then cricket

[azuregaia]

we already have wii baseball,whats the point?

[meirser]

the point is that cricket is a far superior sport and a hell of a lot more popular worldwide than baseball is

[silent221]

something like ricky ponting cricket would be good

[crm114]

If it were up to the standard of Tennis I'd buy it in a heartbeat.

[danisflying]

Its not gunna com out... Cronolink the creator has stopped working on the website. Its been the same since last year. Please join the new campaign for it and watch the new videos at doubleyoudoubleyoudoubleyou<do­t>freewebs<dot>com<slash>wiiwa­ntcricket

[OMRFG]

i <3 cricket

y cant they both come 2gether??

cricket on the wii is PERFECT!!!!!!!!!!

[joolzy52]

something like Brain Lara 2007 should be on wii!

[knic11]

Best Idea for a Wii game yet !!!!

[Terrahawk104]

Cricket on the Wii ftw.

[quicksilveraslam08]

my dad would want to buy it

[w1ldf1r3]

cricket sucks HATE SPEECH HATE SPEECH

[munkeymomo]

i would buy a wii if they brought out wii cricket

[alza111]

i agree with ya! c'mon wii cricket - oh ye and i'm getting a wii in 66 days :D

2nd leading wicket taker for moddershall U 13's - c'mon!

[sharpie92]

Im Australian and i reckon cricket is the best summer sports game going! I also love baseball as well but PERSONALLY i feel that cricket is better! If cricket is on a wii sports game i will be sooo pissed off! EA is a big enough company to independantly make a game for the three next gen platforms. I also cant wait for the BIGGS baseball on wii either its going to be mad!!

[chillakhe]

And for the idiots who say Cricket should be included in something like Wii Sports...I'M SORRY..that's almost impossible because Cricket is such a great and big game, you can't include it in a package of games like Baseball...Cricket is a science for itself. What is BASEBALL in comparison to that? Maybe but only maybe the ABC of Cricket. But even that is a compliment every cricket lover would say.

[chillakhe]

Hahahaha, Cricket is far better than Baseball.. And I'm not a Brit who is saying this....American sports suck except Basketball but CRICKET ROCKS THE WORLD....CRICKET FOR WII ALL THE WAY!

[nicholasv112]

Good Luck guys I hope someone makes one for you!

[ashleyfish]

please put a cricket game on the wii!

[Falkirion]

Cricket and Wii. Its like bread and butter, hot dog and bread roll. With the wii-mote it opens up a great way to enjoy cricket in your home. Apart from watching it on TV that is. I'm behind this game 100%!!

[S0lidieoProductionZ]

Man with that wii remote its a no brainer cricket gots to be on Nintendo Wii. I would get the Wii just for the reason that Cricket is on it.

[lttlmn105]

For all you retards out there, I think cricket would be a good move for nintendo, maybe in another package like wii sports and wii play. and before u go calling me a Brit, I'm American. I have never played, or even, seen a game a cricket. I wouldnt buy it, but I do think they would make some money. But now for all u brits, quit saying how Cricket is so good, it is simply a matter of opinion. SO STFU ALREADY

[wolfras]

how do you know what cricket is like when youve never seen it?

[Shawwal7]

wii want cricket thats awesome i would definately buy it

[wolfras]

cricket is 100 times better than baseball! and do you know how many countries play cricket too?

[makuva]

any1 who thinks cricket is gay is a f$%ken asshole who needs to be f%^ked up by me and also is a son of a bit*h and a loser

[kopasamsu01]

hmm, people, dont attention to any of the people who talk shit about cricket on WII! I think its a terrific idea & nintendo will gain A LOT of money! people will buy WII like crazy, especially in UK & South-east Asia! I mean I would buy the WII just for this game & even sacrifice buying PS3 for that! * people who alk abt the gfx: BS! If you dont have fun playing it WTF would your gfx do! So enough with those MF bullcrap & go get a hike!

[stoner412]

lol why should nintendo do criket? just to please some gay aussies and brits, i dont think so

[isdonisgood]

stoner412 says: "lol why should nintendo do criket? just to please some gay aussies and brits, i dont think so"

why do baseball for gay fat americans?...

so there is plenty of shit for every gay person

[S0lidieoProductionZ]

Frankly it would please me which im from Canada, South Africa, Trinidad & Tabago, Jamaica, Guyana, Barbados, Pakistan, India, Ireland, USA, Netherlands, France and pretty much every country in the world. It's messed up that they sell rugby for ps2 but not Cricket where i live.

[kbsaeed]

A must game for Wii

[JacobBarton000]

it would be awesome if they did make a cricket game on the wii, it would sell heaps

[Piratossen]

Ehm no we don't. Cricket is lame.

[jonowev]

to the guy that said cricket is lame - ever played cricket? any good at cricket? in fact, are you good at any sport in general? didnt think so...

[jonowev]

surely something like brian lara must come out on the wii at some point? as a cricket fan and a wii owner, i intend to support this site =]

[greenvox]

Wii WANT CRICKET!!! :D

[wolfras]

go the wii! Australia is going to win the world cup but i wish i had the wii remote in my hand to win t eh cup

[joshuacoates000]

lol i find it funny that people compete saying wii is better then the 360 blah blah blah. who cares they are a video game console. they r all good.

"The wii is shit and for dyslexic retard END OF."

lol ur a retard

[p3nN673]

Wii is too shit for cricket but good for 5yr olds games e.g. pokemon (where nintendo are used to). The wii is shit and for dyslexic retard END OF.

[josheastgate]

What a ridiculously useless post.

[wolfras]

i want wii cricket! thats the only reason why i bought the console so i hope it comes out

[wolfras]

when is the website up and running?

[Segeta]

I thought this was Youtube, not GameFAQs.... jeez, stop the flamebaiting.

[camash879]

i want WIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII cricket so bad. i want a wii but have no real reason to buy one, if cricket came out then id buy one...how much is cricket 07 on pC is it any good on the PC? wb :)

[cHaTLo77]

Wii hasnt been out for a huge amount of time, a cricket game will come.. Until then buy Cricket 2007 on PC 203 off 61 balls woot

[Himhippo]

I would be a Wii just for this!

[sainter7]

i would probably buy a wii just for the game lol

i bought a ps1 for shane warne cricket, that was awesome

[actionjackson1nonly]

shit if they made wii cricket half descent id buy a wii but until then well lets just say baseball isn't my thing

[hawk0168]

Please don't just make this a PAL version only... There are some people in the US who would buy this. There's not many, but we would.

[CodemastersGames]

Sounds good to us - I've forwarded this to the powers-that-be in Codemasters and we've taken note of the demand we've seen on digg and on Aussie Nintendo. We'll be touch.

[josheastgate]

A wise decision! This would be an instant best seller in Aus and other cricketing regions.

Thank you for your awareness and forsight.

[bitesize2]

X-Box 360 FTW

Who needs gimmicks like this, go back to the arcade Wii and take your morons shitting up fourms with "THIS GAME SHOUDL BE ON THE WII HERE IS WHY" with ya.

[josheastgate]

A little scared are ya? How is this hurting you and your precious Xbox.

[prachan]

The Wii means nothing to the 360, your going to realise this when the 360 domiantes the market with AAA titles while the wii gets horrid ports and minigame collections and once in a while great games from Nintendo, it is going to be the gamecube all over again expect with a new gimmick and the gamecube's graphics would great for thier time.

[prachan]

Guess what your not going to get GTA 4, your not going to get MGS4 your not going to get traditonal RPGS, your not going to get dozens of other titles because they just wouldn't run on it's hardware

[josheastgate]

Hahahahaha, he's all worked up. I'm not going to give you the satisfation of an argument.

[popat2000]

oh please, some of us dont give a crap about graphics as long as they are not DOS 16 bit. a video games primary intension is to have fun, not to compare who's got a bigger and better GPU. at least thats why most of us will play the super smash bros in 2 x players mode trying to kill each other (its an absolute comedy) over some PS FPS/racing game. ur modern FPS are so boring, I sell the game after beating it once. next please

[xcoerw]

Erm....yes I am, but I'll play them on my PS3.

The wii is for having fun on, and a cricket game seems the best way possible to do that!

[MurraySkull]

So bitesize2... What you're saying is that the Wii players have no right to have cricket games? Because they're stupid? For not buying one type of console?

[alza111]

if u think wii's crap than y da fuck are you looking it up????!!!!!

[mushroomandrooster]

Considering the length of a Test match (or a one-dayer, for that matter), I wouldn't mind seeing a Twenty20 version at the very least!

[Icebird4000]

I took my wii to India, and all my cousins kept asking if they had a cricket game. With a worldwide release, with the sports games (not including zelda) being the most popular non-gamer game on the wii, it seems silly for Nintendo to not make a cricket game.

[popat2000]

that would be so cool. though its hard for the sensor to detect what stance u taking as a batsmen with just that controller. front foot vs back foot vs defense.

[josheastgate]

You're right, and we have discussed this very issue. One of the ideas was to hold B (underside button) and swing for a backfoot shot and hold A and swing for a front foot shot.

[EssThree]

Not really, the controller can sense what direction the top is facing, all you'd need to do is say which hand you're using.

Check out some home brew demo videos to see how accurate the sensor really can be.

[tamrix]

Cricket will be a sick idea, im all for it.

[gamehunter101]

yes more cricket

[Orpheonix]

Bring it.

[Snip3rNife]

Wii really do want Cricket!

[WiiCheatsRevealed]

Wii want to give you these cheats.

... To 27 Wii games... For nothin

[josheastgate]

I would love to that :] You wouldn't exactly be required to stand up... but I'd say it would be preferred.

[TheDowie]

im a big cicket fan, but i dont no how willing i would be to stand up for 80+ overs plus , then get up and bowl for another 80+

[Tash1387]

Cricket for Wii would be amazing and it must happen, in fact it has to happen. The gameplay potential is incredible.. it could really become an awesome game, or indeed games - the more the merrier!

Nice video - the more exposure for the cause the better ;)

[alvinator]

Thats an awesome idea.Hopefully developers listen and make a game for it on the wii.They would make plenty of money from it for sure.

[psp7856]

i bet its like wii sports graphics

[joelstube]

a cricket game has no even been announced for the wii yet. the video and the wiiwantcricket website are here to gain support for the a cricket game, so that developers will produce one.

even if it does have graphics like wii sports, i will still buy it, because im far more interested in gameplay than graphics.

[josheastgate]

Typical response from someone with a name like that.

[EssThree]

I hope so. I love playing games with Miis, we need more games that use them.

[jackgats]

i thought of this aswell ages ago it would be a brilliant game because you can put all the aspects of cricket into it (apart frm the fieldin ofcourse)

[lkv87]

Wii do indeed want Cricket !

[Transparanioa]

Haha, good stuff. Cricket for Wii is on!

[joelstube]

awesome idea! cant wait for the site!!
