Oof, so much Wii News Today!
HAY EVERYBODY. The writers @ Ars Technica’s Opposable Thumbs gaming journal have been busy bees reporting on the latest Wii news! YAY Wii! News links follow in order of personal importance, because I can. Hee hee.
1. Sonic the Hedgehog will be in Super Smash Brothers: Brawl on a Nintendo console. Everybody is writing how it would have been impossible 15 years ago. Me, I’m just waiting for the universe to implode when the game drops sometime next year. Link
2. The Wii Fit will be making its debut in Japan on December 1st for a US equivalent of $75, which probably means that it’ll miss the US holiday season. I kinda wanted to wait outside a retail store @ 5AM and camp out for one for giggles. Oh well, I guess I’m pushing that back a few months too. Link
3. The Wii Ware service will activate in Japan sometime around March and will launch two games available to purchase: Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles and Pokemon Farm – where you can supposedly raise and take care of Pokemon from Diamond and Pearl. Link
So I guess none of this news will affect us Wii owners until next year. I *will* be looking forward to Super Mario Galaxy coming November 20th! But then again, I still haven’t played Halo 3 yet. GAAAAHHHHH.
Hooray games!
