Hockey Allstar Shootout skating onto WiiWare

Big Blue Bubble, developer of Home Sweet Home, has announced a new WiiWare game that is a bit more stereotypically dude-oriented than the home-design game. Specifically, Canadian-dude-oriented. Hockey Allstar Shootout is a hockey game in which players use the Wiimote as a hockey stick in three game variants.

Rather than a full hockey game, Shootout, as the title implies, focuses on hitting pucks at targets or toward goalies. There's also a Power Shot Challenge, in which you are judged on the size of the hole in your TV how hard you hit the puck. Sounds like a good time -- we enjoy knocking stuff into other stuff now and then.
