NintendoLife Preview: Let's Hitchhike!

"It's literally called Let's Zenryoku Hitchihaiku!!!!!!!!! (yes nine exclamations!), which I guess you could translate as Let's Totally Hitchhike, Dude!

Kotaku: Full Blast Hitchhike Preview: Just As Weird With The Name Change

Kotaku writes: "Formerly known as Let's Hitchhike!!!!!!!!!-yes, with nine exclamation points-the re-christened Full Blast Hitchhike is probably the weirdest WiiWare game I've ever played.

It also doesn't seem to have all that much to do with hitchhiking. Sure there's a thumb cursor and some vehicles you're trying to "flag down" via all manner of Wii-mote flailing you can imagine. But where's the grungy charm, the moral ambiguity? And where is the vague threat of being stabbed?"
