'Casual' gaming on the Wii is currently big business so we probably shouldn't be surprised that Namco Bandai - along with Ghostbusters developer Red Fly Studios - is working on a 'serious' cooking title.
Food Network: Cook or be Cooked contains a fully-stocked kitchen and will attempt to give a more true-to-life representation of the art of cuisine than fellow Wii title Cooking Mama.

Interestingly, the game is set to make use of the Wii MotionPlus add-on. We assume that when it comes to chopping that veg, you need as accurate a control system as possible.

This will be a great game for people who don't have kitchens.
I really enjoyed Order Up! so quite excited about this, although I have never heard of The Food Network, if that is a US TV channel then us Brits may not get it.
Glad to see MotionPlus is going to be used as Order Up! whilst enjoyable, did feel like a bit of a waggle-fest at times.
I tend to prefer this kind of games on the DS and I will be saving my nintendo points for other releases. That's not to say I don't think this'll be good however.
I hope they don't intend to sell this at full retail. I realy don't think it'll make it that way, sinc eit already has 2 cooking Wii games to compete with.
I have found some leaked information from a reliable sauce that the follow up will be called Food Network: Student Edition, and will involve mastering the art of beans on toast, making Pot Noodle sandwiches and for the final boss reheating last nights Pizza.
@Stevie - LOL. Reminds me of my student days!
