[Update: Actually, there won't be a connectivity feature that turns the DS into a PKE Meter. Sorry.]The Wii version of Ghostbusters might be headed in an uncertain direction in the hands of Red Fly, a wholly different developer than Terminal Reality, which is creating the other version, but it will at least make use of the waggle console's touchy sibling. Busting through the fourth wall, Wii's Ghostbusters will morph any old DS (sold separately, of course) into a bleeping, blinking "PKE Meter," reports videogaming247. Sure, it's a glorified radar, but it senses ghost goo -- and you'll actually hold the darn thing in your hand! Has ectoplasmic detection ever been so tangible?
In addition, the Wii version (and PS2 port) will place special emphasis on local multiplayer and feature 4-player split-screen gameplay. Just don't cross the streams.

Joystiq put these ads which actually stop you from even being able to read the article, you shouldnt NEED something to stop them, they just should not be there.
'Nuff said.

Graphic whores will one day realise that innovation saved console gaming and will do it again.
thats the delusional world some of the Nintendo fanboys live in, gaming didn't get saved by the wii and the wii is far from innovative...

-You're right, no...human being would ever stack books like this.. .
On a side not the graphics on the Wii version don't look entirely ripped of the PS2 version, since they got specular mapping but they are shit none the less.

Methinks I'll get the Wii version after all. Some actual Wii/DS connectivity is what I've been waiting for.

Jeez, how long have we been waiting for some relevant DS/Wii connectivity? (Although this seems neat, the relevance is still up in the air)

I was stoked about this game but now I'm slightly disappointed. Hopefully they were talking about the Wii version in 1Up's 1st impressions review.
