Konami Digital Entertainment GmbH shows capitalism gone mad in Hudson Soft’s latest party classic!
Konami Digital Entertainment GmbH has announced Job Island – a stunning collection of mini-games set within an umbrella theme, which has been created by Hudson Soft and will be released for Wii in March 2009.
Job Island was formerly known as Hard Working People, but has been renamed following the huge success of Hudson Soft’s similarly-themed Sports Island, which also used the concept of fun-orientated mini-games to such good effect.

Plenty of “Wii would like to play” commercials have been released, but this might take the cake for the most boring Wii promotion of recent memory. Although, I’m pretty sure the casual crowd will enjoy watching it!
