WiiWare demo program returns with Surinuke Anatousu in Japan

Nintendo supported WiiWare demos in 2009 by offering a batch of downloads on the Shop Channel, but the same cannot be said this year. Up to this point, it seemed that demos had essentially been abandoned, even though the program received very warm feedback. Good news, though. Well, if you’re living in Japan that is.

If you happen to own a Japanese Wii, you can try out Surinuke Anatousu free of charge. Interestingly, this is the first time Nintendo has launched a demo alongside the release of a WiiWare title. Hopefully this is a sign that the demo program will receive greater support in the future, and perhaps Nintendo will consider releasing demos to coincide with new game releases more often.
