The game is brilliant. If any of you own an Xbox, you have no excuse not to download it now.
Also, rumor has it that several regular visitors here own a "computer," whatever that is. If this (admittedly unsubstantiated) rumor is to be believed, you can already be playing it RIGHT THIS MINUTE GO DOWNLOAD IT I AM SERIOUS
Speaking of holding the Wiimote sideways, I totally hate that. I keep hitting the damn B button on the underside of the Wiimote. I always have to hope for CC support.

I've just had the misfortune of playing this game - I say misfortune because I bloody loved it and knew it wouldn't be coming to WiiWare. I don't really think I could play this on the PC - it's definately a sofa game so I'm going to hold my breath for a disc release.
I can't believe they're having so much trouble finding a publisher, though. Here we have a finished game that's highly praised, lots of fun and has a massive following already - yet a peice of shovelware crap will not only get published, but will also probably get an advert with the Redknaps, Nicole Kidman and Patrick Stewart.
It's a huge pain to get the right adapter and get everything working right if you're not good with technology, but I finally did it last night and it's amazing.
They had Nintendo as a Publisher for Super Meat Boy on WiiWare. Team Meat must have done some horrible mistakes to lose em (like not being capable to get some old flash game right on Wii).
The way you stated that comment makes me think you have some bias towards the dev, but I'll answer anyway.
Super Meat Boy was going to be self-published on WiiWare, like it is on 360 and Steam (the latter of which is shown on the store page). On places like Metacritic, only Team Meat was noted (as the developer), and in the game's opening credits, there is no publisher logo.
Super Meat Boy is no longer a flash game, that was the original, Meat Boy. The graphics are beautiful in motion to the point that my PC has a hard time running them except for on low detail. Also, the devs are sorry the game became to large to put on Wii, but they'd rather make it the best it could be than hold back for Wii. It was never meant to be a Nintendo-exclusive anyway.
