You know the great thing about writing about WiiWare every week? Often, the comedy writes itself. Let's take a look at the description for Midnight Bowling (Gameloft, 1-4 players, 800 Wii Points) shall we? "Plunge directly into the trendy and electric atmosphere of Midnight Bowling. With awesome playing sensations, prepare for ultra-fun gaming thanks to a new physics engine that lets you control your throws precisely and easily with your Wii Remote." Controlling bowling ball throws with the WiiMote? Let us be the first to say: Finally. (Comedy bonus: The description also boasts you'll be playing in "the trendiest bowling spots on the planet" which is a little like bragging that you give the world's most pleasurable spinal tap.)
Also, there's MadStone (Riverman Media, 1-2 players, 800 Wii Points), the true glory of which you can only appreciate with the post-break video.
Wii Sports Bowling is basically the only game I still play from time to time on the Wii. I can see a "midnight bowling" take on that being pretty fun. The design on Wii Sports is a little dry for maintaining a good buzz on into ze night, but the bowling mechanics are just so good. If Nintendo released a full version, with a laser beams and disco balls mode, of Wii Bowling, I would buy it in a second. This has to prove itself.
