Those founders are hard-working folks. This whole project’s been in the making for so long that I think they have a good chance to succeed!

i checked it out and have to say overall impression is pretty good – i’m just a casual gamer (as i guess most of their target audience is) but i’m already kind of hooked. i hope the manage to streamline a few functionalities, then it should definitely make its mark over here as it did in europe and japan apparently

Hi, Wazap is a good vertical search engine. However I would to bring to your attention that GameSkoot (www.gameskoot.com) recently launched in the US. GameSkoot’s beta is already avalaible in english and in french. We welcome your feedback

I don’t see any point here why this startup should gain much traction in the US. Competition is well established and offers on-par service. wazap generates 80% of their traffic in Japan where they are successfull, however they failed to get significant traction in other countries.

I bet 10$ on wazap being in the deadpool at the end of the month

It’s a pretty cool system, but it probably going to catch some competition from sites like GameFAQs. It does have a pretty click interface though, and well definitely be worth giving a look.
