bonk_wiiware

Bonk. Is. Back! Hudson’s loveable caveman makes his long-awaited return and has brought his enormously giant head with him! Get ready for an all new adventure exclusively on Xbox LIVE®Arcade, Playstation®Network, and WiiWare™ in Spring 2010!

A doomsday comet, surrounded by smaller chunks of debris, is on a collision course with Earth. A strange magnetic field around the comet seems to be driving most of the planet’s weak-willed creatures crazy, and smaller bits of debris are smashing into the jungle near Bonk’s home. Bonk must undertake a perilous journey that will take him to the very center of the planet to save the world.

There were quite a few announcements from Nintendo at the GameStop Manager’s conference last night. However, one piece of information not listed in the company’s official press release is the timeframe for when New Super Mario Bros. Wii will be coming out in North America. We already knew that it should be arriving sometime this holiday, but now we have a specific month as well. According to the Big N, the game should be expected sometime this November.

REDMOND, Wash.–(BUSINESS WIRE)– Nintendo is offering an easy way for Wii™ console owners to access the Internet without a computer. Effective immediately, people who want to browse the Internet using their Wii consoles will be able to do so at no added cost.

The Wii Menu houses a variety of informational and entertaining channels, such as the News Channel and Wii Shop Channel, that users can visit to enhance their Wii experience. Wii consoles that are linked to a broadband Internet connection have even greater access to additional content and channels. For example, the Nintendo® Channel is an interactive guide to what’s new in the world of Nintendo that lets consumers watch trailers, mini-documentaries, product demonstrations and game-play videos, while the Check Mii Out™ Channel allows users to show off their Mii™ creations and download Miis that others have created.


Update: First details are below

– Called Shadow Walker: Kage no Shounen, Hikari no Yousei
– Game Arts handling development
– Mix of action and platforming
– Main character’s name is Lux, his fairy is called Popo
– Character only allowed to maneuver in shadow
– Releasing in Japan in October for 1,000 points


Included in this update is a newer version of Adobe Flash, making even more website content available to you.

Until now, the Internet Channel was available to download from the Wii Shop Channel for 500 Wii Points. However, as Nintendo encourages all customers and their families to enjoy browsing the internet from their sofas, the Internet Channel can now be downloaded for free.

For those who have purchased the Internet Channel for 500 Wii Points before, a special offer will be available from late October until the end of December. During this time period, you will be able to download a Virtual Console NES title worth 500 Wii Points for free.

When the exact time period for this offer is finalised, a notification will be sent out via the Wii Message Board and posted on the Nintendo of Europe website.

Thanks to Jake once again for the news tip!
