Nintendo's European WiiWare service has been launched today with six titles initially available to download.
WiiWare games will be available to download from the Wii Shop Channel starting from 500 Wii Points, which themselves have to be bought in the Wii Shop Channel or at retailers.
Developers of any size will be able to create and sell their games created for the Wii through the Wii Shop Channel. Each game will be reviewable by gamers with a chart of the most popular regularly published.
WiiWare has already launched in Japan earlier this year on March 25, and in North America on May 12. An interview with developers on their thoughts concerning WiiWare can be found here.
The full list of WiiWare titles released in Europe follows:

Nintendo fans and tech nuts: what you're about to read will be music to your ears. According to the most recent issue of Japan's top video games publication, Weekly Famitsu, the sequel to Nintendo's strictly Japanese DS title Daigasso! Band Brothers (above) will take Wii-DS connectivity to new (volume) levels. Titled Band Bros. DX, the new game will let players stream their best performances to the Wii for output through TV speakers, stereos, home theater systems -- whatever you've got your Wii pumping sound out of.
The key is a forthcoming "Speaker Channel" for Wii which, while not officially dated, would seem to be a shoe-in for day-and-date launch with Band Bros. DX in Japan. For those unfamiliar with the game, it allows up to eight players on individual DS systems to pick an instrument and "play" the included songs, or jam out and create their own. The original Band Bros. was -- at one time -- due for release in the US as Jam with the Band! but has vanished from the radar. Hopefully this sequel will survive the trip Stateside; stores would likely be alive with the sound of ringing registers for this Wii and DS duet's debut.

Returning from a brief, WiiWare-induced hiatus, the Wii's Virtual Console service offers but a single new old title for your enjoyment this week.
Skykid (NES, 1-2 players, 500 Wii Points): Join Red Baron of Bird Land as he makes the skies friendlier in this side-scrolling shooter. Enemies must be shot down, bombs must be dropped and the loop must be looped if you hope to survive your airborne jaunt. And try not to screw up the landing!
And that's it. Move along to the next post, folks.

Looks like sein kampf just got a little härter. As if it wasn't bad enough that Hitler's Xbox Live account was banned for modding, he's now being excluded from Mario Kart Wii as well. As Nintendo Everything recently reported, those with the Mii license of "Hitler" attempting to log on to the game will receive a message that such user names are not allowed on the Nintendo Wi-Fi service.
While we support the move, we worry about the effect this will have on the completely hate-free "Li'l Hitler" (no relation to the full-size despot). The only thing he tries to completely eradicate from the globe is frowns.

Whatever the DS can do, Wii can do better, right? Apparently Dave agrees with said mantra, as he has converted a Wii Guitar Hero axe into a full-fledged MIDI controller. As in, there's a 5-pin jack down there and everything. In its current state, you can play two octaves of an eight note scale at at time, alter the keys / octaves, change tonal modes, use the whammy bar to bend the pitch and blow the minds of electrical engineering buds you still see on a regular basis. Granted, this mod isn't exactly for the faint of heart, but feel free to hit the read link if you're hacker enough to handle it.

Ripping people's hearts out, cutting blokes in half with a chainsaw - that's what's going down in these gory new MadWorld screens, and we like it (sadistic, maybe?).
That pretty much sets the tone for the game, it seems. You play as Jack, the man with the chainsaw arm, and you brutalise people in the most horrific ways. Sega called it "comical violence" in its presentation, so that makes it okay.
The black and white graphical style looks brilliant in motion, and with blood being the only thing on screen with colour, it makes the gore even more prominent.
MadWorld was one of three games from developer Platinum Games that Sega showed off at a presentation last week and you can read more about that here.

Nintendo's new Wii Fit, launching today, combines fun and fitness in ways that will have people getting up off their couches, moving around, having fun and maybe even breaking a sweat. Wii Fit gets everyone pumped up about making enjoyable physical activities a part of their daily routines. Wii Fit even tracks users' progress, which lets people see how they have improved while challenging them to better their scores and stay motivated to keep going.
At an MSRP of $89.99, Wii Fit comes packaged with the Wii Balance Board™ accessory, a precisely engineered platform that senses both weight and shifts in movement and balance. The Wii Balance Board connects wirelessly to the Wii console and serves as the centerpiece for more than 40 fun activities that challenge users in areas like yoga, aerobics, strength training and balance. Helpful virtual trainers in the game talk users through the different activities and make suggestions for improvement.
"Wii Fit will get you moving whether you've been playing video games for years or this is your first time," said Cammie Dunaway, Nintendo of America's executive vice president of sales & marketing. "Wii Fit is easy for anyone to try and is yet another example of how Nintendo continues to expand the world of video games to new audiences."
To celebrate the launch of Wii Fit, Nintendo is holding an interactive release party today for the public in the southwest corner of New York's Central Park, near the Merchants' Gate. "We're looking for everyone to 'get on board' and get excited about their fitness," said celebrity trainer Ashley Borden, who will be on hand to do personal Wii Fit demos and training.
Wii Fit, which has sold more than two million copies in Japan, starts with a simple measurement that calculates an adult user's Body Mass Index, or BMI. From there, the Wii Balance Board accessory can be used as a platform for twirling a virtual Hula Hoop, shredding on a virtual snowboard, performing leg extensions or doing a downward-facing dog yoga pose. Wii Fit contains a wide variety of fun games and physical activities that target the body's core.
Different people in the same household can use Wii Fit and track their progress separately. Users' Mii caricatures even reflect their fitness levels and change as people become more proficient at the activities.
Wii is the first video game system ever included in the President's Challenge, a program of the President's Council on Physical Fitness and Sports that encourages all Americans to make physical activity a part of their daily lives. Wii Fit builds on that honor by encouraging people to keep their bodies moving.
Wii Fit is available today exclusively at the Nintendo World store in New York, and will be at retail stores across the country May 21.
Remember that Wii features parental controls that let adults manage the content their children can access.

Leisure Suit Larry: Magna Cum Laude developer High Voltage Software has released the first footage of Conduit, its upcoming Wii game that it hopes will 'look like a 360 title.
Speaking last April, High Voltage CEO Kerry Ganofsky said: "Most of the games on the Wii look like crap. We want to change that, so we've invested heavily in our Wii tech over the past year.
"Of course [Wii owners] care about gameplay," he continued, "but we believe if given the choice, they would want great graphics as well. It's just a cop out. With Conduit, we are trying to make a Wii game that looks like a 360 title."
High Voltage claimed that the game would contain real-time shadows, projected lights and interactive water. Based on the trailer posted on IGN, we can confirm that at least of those claims were true - the water does look nice for a Wii game.
Unfortunately, we couldn't really make out any evidence of any of the other stuff. Whilst it does look technically better than a lot of games on Wii, its colour palette makes extensive use of the same metallic gray that we've seen in the research labs and underground corridors of a dozen other generic first person shooters. It all seems a bit too familiar.
Still, graphics aren't everything, right? There still might be a decent first person shooter underneath it all, a genre severely lacking a crowning title on Wii. Maybe High Voltage can still pull this out of the bag yet.

Sega has yet again released a bunch of screenshots from Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood on DS. Y'know, the RPG title from BioWare.
All twenty-five screenshots look good, but we think we've got all we can from in-game screenshots now. How about some video now, Sega? Preferably some demonstrating the dialogue system, which is top of our list of worries.
Either that or at least some levels overlaid with some vintage Sonic music, like the score from Chemical Plant Zone. Not that we're putting all of our fanboy hopes on this one title or anything.
Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood will be out sometime this autumn.

Released today
Castle Shikigami III continues the popular game series, and resembles past entries of the character-driven scrolling shooter, with its vertical display and anime cut-ins. You can select from 10 warriors and directly navigate your chosen character. This game includes five stages of blasting action, each cumulating in a major boss fight. Dramatic Change Mode lets you change between two characters on the fly. As a result of this new mode, you can now enjoy the two-player exclusive scenarios from the arcade version even when playing by yourself.

Sheffield-based publisher Lexicon Entertainment has announced plans to release a new range of budget software for the DS.
The first titles in the Super Brain Tease range will be released in time for Christmas. They will each be themed around a different topic - you'll be able to choose from football, geography, music, movies or history.
Each game features "hundreds of different questions with videos and pictures" and eight round types.
They're designed for quick bursts of 15-minute play, according to Lexicon. And at GBP 9.99 a pop, that's cheaper than 15 minutes on the Deal or No Deal machine down the pub. No Noel mind. Christmas, then.

Ekid released a game of Pong for the DS written in ASM:
I just thought I would share this with everybody. :P It's Pong, but the rendering is done with only using the hardware windows (before transformation).
http://ekid.nintendev.com/pong.zip
Everything is shoved into one big asm file  . It also does some pretty weird things, like arm7/arm9 sharing the interrupt handler! :P
