Wii

Today sees a raft of new releases that include great games and a Wii bundle designed to get everyone’s motor running!

Games hitting shop shelves today include sprawling adventure Dragon Quest VI: Realms of Reverie for Nintendo DS, 3D brawler DEAD OR ALIVE Dimensions for Nintendo 3DS and four vintage Wii titles in the Nintendo Selects range.

Also available from today is the Mario Kart Wii Pack, a new bundle that comes complete with a white Wii, Wii Remote Plus, Nunchuk and Wii Wheel – not to mention the multiplayer racing sensation, Mario Kart Wii!


Wii Point Cards/Nintendo Points are being removed from the Wii Shop Channel. Instead, Nintendo is replacing the references with the “Nintendo eShop Card”. Not too big of a deal, but it’s a sign that Nintendo is moving forward…


This isn’t a complete listing, of course, and many companies have yet to officially announce their lineups for the show. We should be hearing about more games over the next couple of weeks.

Really hope you guys show your support for this title when it finally arrives on the Wii Shop Channel. Shin’en is providing another high-quality effort for the service!


Ubisoft has been developing a Tintin game (apparently for the Wii and PlayStation 3, at the very least) for a considerable amount of time. Tintin: The Secret of the Unicorn was announced almost two years ago – at Ubisoft’s E3 2009 conference to be exact. Since then, we haven’t heard much about the project.

It looks like Ubisoft will finally be sharing more at this year’s E3, if usually reliable Twitter user Supererogatory is to be believed. That’d definitely make sense, as the Tintin movie will be out in movie theaters in December.

As we’ve learned previously, the game is being led by Rayman creator Michel Ancel. Supererogatory notes that Ancel’s team was making Beyond Good & Evil 2 until development switched to the Tintin title. Once that project ships, work on Beyond Good & Evil 2 will supposedly resume.

Update: You can check out a high-quality trailer here.

The first footage of the anticipated WiiWare game, FAST – Racing League, is now available thanks to a page on Nintendo’s website. We also now know that Shin’en’s new title will be available on May 30 in North America. It’ll also launch in Europe on May 27.
