Deca Sports, Wii Sports, Carnival Games and all the other minigame collections on Wii had better watch their backs ... or at least join together, forming some kind of bargain bin Voltron to do battle against Big League Sports. Activision is bringing the new minigame collection to the Wii "this holiday season."
The collection will include 22 of the most "thrilling situations" from tennis, basketball, football, soccer, lacrosse, and hockey. Also, there's character creation so (as we're sure they expected by now) it seems your Miis will miss out on the fun.

Whoa! The picture looked like claymation for a second and I got really excited...Only to have my spirit crushed by the cruel reality that it is just poor graphics.

I think it's because the lighting on the guy is actually pretty good. Although it might just be screenshot trickery.

The guy has cankles for crying out loud, I mean I know the Wii is basically a duct-taped Gamecube but still. They could do better.

It does sound cool, but what exactly does "22 of the most 'thrilling situations' from..." mean? Will we get to play full games in those 22 sports? Probably the Wii game I own with the most lasting appeal has been wii sports, so if this is 22 times the fun of that, then it could be pretty good.

I can just imagine Justin trembling over the keyboard as he restrains himself from typing anything meaner. I think that's why the article is about 1/2 the size of the picture that's attached to it.

A bit silly to be done with Joystiq forever when it seems you've only just started.

Just because I don't comment on posts doesn't mean I've been a frequent visitor to the site for years. Forced Ads was the final straw for me and this site.

again crap for Wii. Ironically Nintendo is not to blame for this onslaught of shovelware. Read this:

WTF.
The first lacrosse game (minus the pathetic blast lacrosse) and it's on Wii. I don't know if I'm more pissed or happy.
