Namco Bandai announced that they're bringing a new Tycoon game to the Wii: Space Station Tycoon from Wahoo Studios, the developer responsible for Outpost Kaloki X on Xbox Live Arcade. The new game will apparently be similar to the downloadable Kaloki, but will be a full retail release.
As a young tycoon named Shawn, you (and your monkey sidekick Tam) are charged with building and operating multiple space stations, fulfilling the needs of travelers, and manipulating people and objects with a "mobile gravity well." We think strategy games are a great fit for the Wiimote, and this one has a pleasing, cartoony style, so we're piqued, even though this is based on a franchise for those other guys.
Hey, when did Namco get control of the Tycoon series? Are the Tycoon games even a discrete series, or are there just a bunch of games with the word Tycoon in them?
Some pretty nice-looking screens are posted after the break.
