The description had me a little worried that it might be some dumbed down reworking but the trailer took care of any fears. Looks like classic worms with surprisingly nice graphics considering wiiware space restrictions. Should have a variety of weapons and tons of options which fans expect. The base battle stuff should add some strategy but there does seems to be a number of other modes to play as well so no one should be disappointed. I'm excited now especially after seeing that the retail wii worms game was pretty awful and this looks to be much much better.
lol Just bought worms space oddity just to find out that this new wiiware worms was coming. Have not yet unpacked the thing. Doesn´t matter, found it in the bargain bin.
Looks so cool. More excited now. Definitely getting this.
Trailer was a lil confusing as it switched thru modes fast. Rad tho.
Noticed the Online Multiplayer menu... had a Friends Only button, I guess to narrow it down and see if your friends are online? Yet also other multiplayer modes that would let you find competitors online. Looks smart.
Yar, I be very pleased to see this beauty on the horizon, me classic worms goodness on that fancy wiiware thing with online-play to boot. I'll be blastin' scurvy dogs worms all over t' world with me mighty cannons. Aye!
Looks great, can not wait!!! check nintendo official website for a good video about about it

This just in: Eurogamer expects the game to hit in December? This contradicts with what the EU release schedule stated (IIRC). Guess we'll have to wait and see if it'll hit this month or even next. I doubt it's coming in December.
Can there be 4 worms per team? One thing that annoyed me about space oddity was that you could only have 3 worms per team? Any idea what the controls will be like?

@lugas 3 worms per team? they got so many things wrong with space oddity. It seems like battle islands is kinda like their apology for making that game.
For this game I've heard you have option for motion controls,like space oddity forced, or classic non motion controls which most sane people will use.
This is looking like the best worms since armageddon.
I found this update from the admin on the Team17 Forum, so, I thought I would repost it here. As of October 13, they were going through the bug-testing and Nintendo approval process, so, the upcoming release date is still pending.
For everyone like me who is waiting and waiting to find out when Worms: Battle Islands for WiiWare will be released?
