Other WiiWare offerings this week will have players bursting bubbles and racing in chariots, whether solo or with friends.

Square Enix just opened up the official website for Final Fantasy Gaiden: Four Warriors of Light and has revealed that some fairly legendary talent is handling the project. Takashi Tokita, who has worked on the likes of Chrono Trigger, and Final Fantasy III/IV/VII is the director. This isn’t Tokita’s first experience with the DS, as he has been a part of the Final Fantasy IV remake on the DS (director/executive producer). You can check out the staff roster which was posted on the website below.

Producer – Tomoya Asano
Character design/art director – Akihiko Yoshida
Sound director – Tomohiro Kamiya
Developer – Matrix
Director – Takashi Tokita

Also interesting is a subpage on the site for specs. According to the page, Final Fantasy Gaiden will feature multiplayer connectivity for up to four players. However, we’ll have to wait and see what the developers are planning.

Both the Wii and DS have seen several health peripherals to encourage healthy lifestyles. Personal Trainer: Walking on the DS and Wii Fit, Wii Sports, and even the upcoming Wii Vitality Sensor add-on are all prime examples. But the Big N isn’t the only company to be involved in some sort of health tool. Bayer HealthCare is developing the DIDGET Blood Glucose Monitoring System, which can be used for children that have diabetes. It fits right into both the original DS or DS Lite systems. Based on consistent testing, kids can earn points and unlock rewards. It’s certainly a nice way to mix health with gaming!

“Bayer’s DIDGET™ is the only blood glucose meter that plugs into a Nintendo DS™ or Nintendo DS™ Lite system. This unique meter helps encourage consistent testing with reward points that children can use to buy items within the game and unlock new game levels. And, since the DIDGET™ meter is based on Bayer’s trusted CONTOUR™ system, you know you’re getting a meter that’s reliable.” – Product description

Thanks to Jake for the news tip!
