Now this is what the Wii is all about. Swinging the wiimote around like a sword while making swooshing noises. Pretty sure the whole swooshing noise bit is optional, but it can't help but enhance the gameplay experience.

As you can see the cast includes a prostitute from the French revolution, generic woodsman number 5, pansy rapier boy, and the obligatory spiky-haired protagonist with encephalitis, so we've got all the bases covered. Wii Sports is fun and all, but Dragon Quest Swords has just the geeky flavor I need to forget that I'm technically exercising.

As an aside, I wanted to give a shout out to Jeromy Stroh over at Gamebrink, who added larger size streaming videos to their site awhile back just to help us fill out the page a bit more. He's good people. Michael Fahey
