Earlier this month, a Japanese
trademark for
World of Goo was spotted, registered by Nintendo of Japan. This lead to conjecture that Nintendo would publish the indie
WiiWare hit in that territory. Nintendo's Tom Prata has kindly confirmed the speculation, telling us that "Nintendo will distribute
World of Goo for WiiWare in Japan starting in the second quarter of 2009."
The company certainly seems taken with the game, which is now pretty much the poster child for WiiWare. At the
DICE summit,
2D Boy's Kyle Gabler even joined Prata onstage for a
presentation about Nintendo's interest in putting more indie games on WiiWare and DSiWare.
