Two WiiWare Games and One Virtual Console Game Added to Wii Shop Channel
This week, it's all about you. By adding three new single-player games to the Wii Shop Channel, we're helping gamers turn their Wii time into "me time." That said, don't be surprised if you attract a crowd of onlookers with this remarkable lineup. From elastic critters and elaborate puzzles to a hero with highly questionable manners, these solo titles are suitable for sharing, but give your friends and family fair warning: They may have to wait a while for their turn once you've gotten a taste of the single-player fun.
Nintendo adds new and classic games to the Wii Shop Channel at 9 a.m. Pacific time every Monday. Wii owners with a high-speed Internet connection can redeem Wii Points to download the games. Wii Points can be purchased in the Wii Shop Channel or at retail outlets. This week's new games are:
WiiWare
Boingz
(RealArcade, 1 player, Rated E for Everyone, 1,000 Wii Points): Stretch,
flex and flick your way to freedom. A truly mind-bending experience,
Boingz introduces you to cute, colorful, stretchable friends lost in an
alien world, searching for the magical gates that will take them home.
Boingz springs to life with 30 levels of puzzle-platforming fun. The
Boingz are bendy little critters that can be pulled, stretched and
flicked from place to place like rubber bands. It's a team effort, as
all the Boingz will have to work together to unwind the game's puzzles.
What's more, many of the Boingz have fallen into a deep slumber, and
you'll have to lead the stronger Boingz to find and wake up their sleepy
friends. Explore surreal landscapes, sail through the air like a trapeze
artist, walk along the seafloor, and collect the Twinklies to power up
your elastic-powered flights.
Sudoku Challenge! (Digital Leisure Inc., 1 player, Rated E for Everyone, 500 Wii Points): Now's your chance to play the brain-busting puzzle game taking the world by storm. With over 100 million Sudoku puzzles, you'll never see the same puzzle twice in Sudoku Challenge! You can select the classic nine-by-nine Sudoku game boards as well as Grand Sudoku, which challenges you to complete five intersecting Sudoku boards simultaneously. Just a beginner? Don't worry-with three difficulty options, even a novice player can complete a Sudoku with ease. But if you're a seasoned pro, challenge yourself in Expert mode and test your true skills. It's time to get your thinking cap on and see how many Sudoku puzzles you can conquer.
Virtual Console
Boogerman:
A Pick and Flick Adventure (Sega Genesis, 1 player, Rated E for
Everyone-Comic Mischief, 800 Wii Points): In this top pick from the Sega
Genesis, play as Boogerman, the heroic alter ego of Snotty Ragsdale.
While investigating Professor Stinkbaum's lab, Boogerman stumbles upon a
strange machine that opens a portal to another dimension. Boogerman has
a nose for adventure, but has he met his match in this sticky situation?
Journey through dangerous worlds while battling wicked enemies like Fly
Boy and Deodor Ant. Deal them a blow with Boogerman's super abilities:
pick and flick with deadly precision, belch, and use his deadly
signature stomp.
