Since I've Never Played Any of the Games in the “shiren” Series, Should I Even Plan on Buying the One for Wii?

I've watched the American trailer a few times now, but I don't know if I should try the one to be released for wii because I'm new to the story and plot. Is this a sequal or anything? Will I be upset because I won't understand parts of the that make references to other games in the series?

Answer:

it looks pretty good, so i'm gonna try it. i didn't even know Shiren was a series …

i'm not at all worried about being lost due to not playing the previous games. in my experience, that's never actually been an issue. =)
