Two More WiiWare Compilations from Nordcurrent
Posted by Trevor Chan
Good news if you like arcade and party games
Nordcurrent has just been in touch to let us know it has another two WiiWare releases lined up.
Firstly is the continuation of the 101-in-1 series with 101-in-1 Explosive Megamix. A collection of mini-games that was released on the DS back in 2009, Nordcurrent will be serving it up again, this time for WiiWare gamers. With 101 games to choose from, players will be able to take on puzzle games, sports games or tackle intense arcade games.
101-in-1 Explosive Megamix features high score tables and unlockable levels, all of which should add up to tens of hours of gameplay. The game is currently scheduled for release in the third quarter of this year.
Secondly, we have Arcade Essentials Evolution, the follow up to Arcade Essentials which got released earlier this year.
This collection of arcade games includes Lunar Parking, Smashout, Vulcanoids, Toader, and Scolopendra. Again, this will feature high score tables,and unlockable levels.
We'll bring you news of release dates and pricing when they become available, and as always, you can expect reviews shortly after their releases.

How is it possible to cram 101 games into the WiiWare's 40MB size limit?

It will be a modern day Action 52, because, like tendo said, you can't cram 101 (mini-)games in 40MB without making shovelware.

Judging from the reviews of these games' predecessors, these will probably also be shovelware.

Well if 101-in-1 games are good enough for Atlus to consider publishing...

Different games I think, WarioFan.
Nordcurrent is a terrible developer.

Wasn't there a retail wii game by the same name?
Anyway, judging by the screenshots, thhe games look like touchmaster style mini-games which would prob be more suited to the ds.
