Unless I’m going crazy, Worms: Battle Islands was announced for WiiWare last year. Now, however, it looks like the game has made the jump from WiiWare to retail. THQ sent out this press release today…

This information comes from Sonic Team’s Takashi Iizuka…

“The thought behind this game was also that the team wanted to capitalise on how far the Sonic franchise has expanded itself through the Mario and Sonic games. Obviously those were on the Nintendo platform and more family friendly. We wanted to take this opportunity to introduce 3D Sonic games to people who may not have played Sonic and provide a new Sonic game to those audiences.”

To be honest, I don’t care who this game is aimed at. More than anything, I just want Sonic Colors to be enjoyable! The most important aspect is for it to be fun, regardless of the audience SEGA is hoping to attract.

“Next is Kingdom Hearts 3D. The time frame for 3D is after Re:Coded. Development has already started in Osaka. As the Final Mix team finishes their work, they’re joining the staff in turn. We’d like to announce it as soon as possible.”

In just two days on the market, Pokemon Black/White has acquired some impressive sales numbers in Japan. According to Famitsu, the game moved 2.63 million units between Saturday and Sunday. Unlike most titles, Black/White’s debut week lasted only two days. Even so, it now holds the record for the biggest first week in Japanese sales history. Something tells me we’ll see additional records broken when the game arrives in other territories!
