Look at that.
Look at it. That is a screenshot of a
new Alien Crush game. Even if it is a little ugly, it's the most beautiful thing
ever. If we didn't already have a Wii, we'd be camping out for one right now based on this alone -- seriously. And it's
WiiWare! With online leaderboards! (Online leaderboards for
Alien Crush? Where would you get an idea like that?) Just like with the Virtual Console, Hudson has proven that they know how to support a download service.
Alien Crush is coming out in Japan in August, and it had
better come out worldwide near that time. Including the stuff shown today (and
Star Soldier R), Hudson has ten WiiWare titles planned.
This AMAZING NEWS was revealed at a Hudson event in a Brazilian restaurant in Shibuya, along with
Blue Oasis, a virtual fish-tank type game that interacts with the Forecast Channel. It'll be out sometime this year. Hit the break for screens, as well as some new
Tetris and
Bomberman images!
Both
Tetris and
Bomberman will have online battles -- we knew this for
Bomberman, but the sight of six players facing off in
Tetris is new and
glorious. According to Hudson,
Tetris will be out in July, and
Bomberman will be out in June -- in Japan. We still have no dates for, or even confirmation
of, a U.S. release for these games.
