Bleach: Shattered Blade for Wii Reviews by Gamers

The first 3d Bleach game to hit the US, and here we have it gracing the Wii with a unique control scheme that requires you to swing your sword in one of several directions using your wiimote. This usually works well, but sometimes, it can misread a move as a jab instead of a swipe or other little mistakes.
Pro: The graphics are beautiful and really show off the characters and their specials well. Music is a decent rocking beat, and there is a nice selection of 32 different characters to choose from. Of, course, there's lots to do to unlock all of these characters plus to get all the extra costumes and gallery stuff.

Con: This game is over fast and will only really hold your interest or attention if you are a fan of the series. Most characters have similar attacks and a few specials and one big special that has a nice animation with it usually. If you don't know the series, a lot of the splendor of being Ichigo going bankai or others will be lost on you. Dub work is terrible and they did NOT include the option for Japanese, like DBZ:BT2 did. the story is nothing special and half the time they won't explain much as to why you are suddenly fighting these people one after the other.
If you have some friends to play with, it can be fun, but by yourself, the game gets old fast.

In the end, this game is for the Bleach fans only. Only a fan would find the 50$ price tag worth it. As for a rent, yeah, it could last a day or two, then you'll probably be ready for something else with more depth, or at lease more to do that swing your mote widely.

A good game, for a specific crowd.

if you dont know what Bleach is, dont get this game. If you like bleach, then this is an okay game. I love bleach so i liked the game. The voice acting and storyline is horrible. But the fighting is fun. It really is like the show. You can go into Bankai or Shikai form and use special attacks. When fighting regular, you wave the wii-mote up and down for a slice, left and right for a slash, and toward the sensor bar for a stab. Then holding A or B and doing any of these things does critical or special moves. Same thing when in Bankai or Shikai form. It doesnt sound like much, but if you like bleach and see all the signature bleach characters and moves, its really cool. The graphics are alright, not the best on the wii but not the worst.
