Endless Ocean (Wii)
Anyone interested in this?
It sounds sorta corny, just swimming around petting fish and feeding them, etc. But it looks really pretty. I think IGN gave it an 8.1 or something. It features Wi-Fi two-player co-op, which is intriguing.
For only $30, I may check it out.

I'm slightly interested, but will be playing too much No More Heroes to get into Endless Ocean quite yet.

I dunno, $25 for No More Heroes sounds like a better deal than Endless Ocean for $5.

My girlfriend is picking this up when I grab No More Heroes, she's a scuba diver and loves ocean stuff.

I posted all this in the main thread back in August. I should have started this thread with all this info instead of posting there.

I would make a custom soundtrack consisting of water level theme music from Nintendo games.
Dire, Dire Docks (Super Mario 64)
Water Temple (Zelda: OoT)
Water Level (Donkey Kong Country)
Lake Hylia (Zelda: TP)

There are a few discs I have in mind already for my custom soundtracks:
Moodswings: Horizontal
Enigma
An Evening With John Petrucci & Jordan Rudess
Might Could
and a few others. If anyone is open to suggestions, check out the Moodswings disc. It's unofficially subtitled "Water Music" if that gives you any idea to the sound.

they kind of went overboard with the number of montipora capricornus in those videos, I mean, sure - montis are hardy and quick growing corals, but there'd be a lot more scrolling and plating of the coral rather than tabling

Ahhhh the ocean, its so...so...endless. The ocean is like a great big glass of blue water, but instead of a glass the earth holds the ocean. It makes want to cry. The tears gather around me and form a ocean, a endless ocean. I float away. I....float....away in a endless ocean. I do not scream. I do not fear. Why would I when I'm home in this ocean. The ocean that is endless is my home. Wiiiiiiiiiiiii I say on the waves. Wiiiiiiiiii look at me as I float away.

Hopefully, if it is inherently inverted, it's customizable.
I'm more and more pumped about this game. For $30? No-brainer to me.
Hopefully the fun doesn't wear off after 10 minutes.

I still can't shake the idea it's an interactive screen saver.
