Okie dokie, so here's the first two games confirmed for tomorrows WiiWare releases (via the Nintendo Channel) Equilibrio 500 Points Family and Friends Party 1000 Points Nintendo have also unveiled the press release early, and confirmed these two titles, alongside... Bubble Bobble Plus! 800 Points (plus DLC)
Here's the details for each game...
Whether you’re controlling the bubble blowing dragons, testing your coordination and balance skills on the Wii Balance Board or challenging friends and family, this week WiiWare has something for you!
Bubble Bobble Plus! Bub and Bob are back in this brand new WiiWare update to the classic arcade game! Bubble Bobble Plus! includes a new version of the original game, support for up to four players, online scoreboards, and even new, downloadable levels!
Equilibrio Do you have a good sense of balance? Then put it to the test in Equilibrio! Use the Wii Remote or Wii Balance Board to manoeuvre a ball through danger-filled mazes, either solo or in a race with friends.
Family & Friends Party Up to eight players can have fun together in this interactive board game that challenges your artistic skills, spelling, teamwork and more! You can also invite your favourite Mii characters to the Party!
I would've thought that Nintendo Released these yesterday, since Good Friday (over here at least) is a Bank Holiday. So I though that they would've released them early; maybe not...
Then agaon though! Bubble Bobble Plus! yay! Plus Equilibrio looks pretty descent too.
I really don't see Nintendo celebrating Good Friday with extra Wii Shop downloads. It's not a religious organization, and the holiday is generally a sombre one.
We only get WiiWare games every other week, so obviously we get more than the US did earlier that week. Also, we only got a single WiiWare game 2 weeks ago, so it's three this time to make up for that.
I'm hoping they're trying to do better because compared to Japan things look pretty bad. I've written Nintendo Customer service about this very issue because I just don't think it's right. I'm sure they need to do testing and whatnot before putting out VC/WiiWare releases, but something isn't right if Japan is getting 4-6 releases a week with a mix of the two and we're getting one or two releases of one of the two...
@Sean Aaron: I've written to them several times as well, and told them that not only are they being unfair on the customers, but also the people who make the games. They claim that they have nothing to do with any other release schedules though, and refuse to comment further than that. If everyone e-mails them though, we should hopefully get somewhere. I e-mailed them on Friday morning as well about the DSiWare schedule. I expect a "no comment" in about two weeks, so I'll be looking forward to that.
At least that's better than asking for an NoJ-published title to get released over here and getting told I should contact the 3rd party publisher direct!
We got three games this last Friday and I bought Equilibrio. It is the first time I buy game on wiiware channel and it's a good game. I played with my girl friend and my brother, it's fun. Maybe others games are good too, maybe I will buy them.
