Game description:
“Who wouldn’t like to have a fireplace at home? Now you can turn your television into a fireplace, equipped with realistic graphics and a fire that will almost burn you. You must be wondering…but what is ‘Fireplacing’? The answer is very simple: ‘Fireplacing’ is exactly what it seems. You’re about to try the first hyper-realistic fireplace simulator for WiiWare. Because…how many times have you wished you had a fireplace at home? Now, for the first time with your Wii, you can turn your television into a fireplace. And what’s more, it’s not going to be just any old fireplace. It comes equipped with realistic graphics and a fire that will surprise you. Prepare the wood, light the fire and stoke it. Or, if you prefer, choose the ‘automatic’ option to have the fireplace on your screen while you eat with your family, celebrate a party with friends or dine with your partner…there are fireplaces for every occasion! Relax, it’s not going to burn you. We still haven’t been able to make that happen.”

This information comes from Wayne Cline, director of product development for THQ’s Kids, Family and Casual division…

“Our early reports are looking very promising, and I know we’re doing very well at Walmart, Best Buy and Toys R Us — outlets like that. And we’re getting really good first-look feedback from a lot of things like parenting magazines and such. It’s looking very positive. We got a SKU plan going on through 2012 calendar. Our next batch of software we’ll be releasing in 2011. We haven’t announced anything yet, but rest assured we don’t intend this to be a one-holiday, one-trick pony.”

I honestly didn’t know if uDraw would perform well sales-wise. I wasn’t sure if consumers would embrace the idea, even though it is a unique peripheral. It’ll be interesting to see how the sales are over the long haul, but at least fans can look forward to more software next year, as well as 2010.

The picture above most definitely features parasites or Leviathan Infants. Look out for it when you play through level 6-7 in Donkey Kong Country Returns!
