We know exactly what you want for that white box with that bowling game that most likely isn't sitting in your house right now: more minigames! Thank your lucky stars that Electronic Arts, in an effort to bring more waggle into their portfolio, has debuted EA Playground for both the Wii and Nintendo DS.

Best described as Wii Sports for the kids (as in, specifically), EA Playground is a mixture of remote-only minigames and obsessive collecting. The current line up for the Wii includes childhood classics like tetherball, dodgeball and RC car racing, with the DS sporting unique games featuring bug hunts and spit balls. The whole thing sort of reminds us of the PlayStation 2 network title, My Street, only without the whole networking part.

With an official announcement to come and a press event rapidly approaching, we'll definitely be seeing more of this in the weeks to come. In other news, Sony has replaced EA's Wii development unit with a PSOne. Do you think they noticed?
