In Fishing Master: World Tour you catch fish using the Wii remote. With a title like Fishing Master that’s a given.
Imagine my surprise when I discovered you also catch kappa, mythological creatures said to inhabit ponds in Japan, in Fishing Master: World Tour too. In the US version the kappa are called water imps, range from 110 - 914 pounds, and are one of a handful unusual catches in the game.
Since the Wii already has plenty of fishing games Hudson should work on a game where you just catch legendary sea monsters.

Arc System Works is taking the Kunio-kun kids out for another field day, but instead of using sprites we get low resolution polygon models. Like JC over at DS Fanboy, I believe this is a first for the Kunio-kun series. Change is nice, but it’s not like the Kunio-kun games needed 3D graphics. Simple and charming sprites worked fine for over 20 years.
Otherwise the shreds of information about Kunio-kun Chou Nekketsu: Daiundokai makes it sound a lot like a 1990s Kunio-kun sports game released on the Famicom. The DS version adds another element too, wireless multiplayer for four which makes Kunio-kun Chou Nekketsu: Daiundokai worth keeping an eye on. We’ll be waiting for an announcement from Aksys about this.

Bomberman 2 is the European name for Custom Battle Bomberman, the latest Nintendo DS Bomberman game. The highlight of Bomberman 2 seems to be mixing and matching parts to make the ultimate Bomberman. There are 160,000+ futuristic looking combinations to play with and you can take your custom creation into eight player Nintendo Wi-Fi battles. Unlike Bomberman games on the past the parts you choose affect your character’s stats. So you may have to choose between wearing a cowboy hat and boosting your defense with a metal helmet.
I dig the custom Bomberman battles, but we’re going to have to wait awhile to play them here. Konami is only taking care of the release in Europe which is February 14. Hudson doesn’t have a branch in Europe which explains why Konami, Hudson’s parent company, picked up the title. Since an English version will be done soon I’m confident Hudson, if not some other publisher, will release “Bomberman 2″ here. Perhaps, with a better sounding name.

After selling millions and millions of DS units, you'd think Nintendo president Satoru Iwata would be bracing himself for a decline in sales. Heck, no!
Iwata sees DS sales as something that will continue to grow. His logic:
Some say the market for the DS is saturated, but I disagree. In Japan, a country with a population of 127 million, we've sold 23 million DS units. The United States is inhabited by over 300 million people, and there are more than 490 million people in the European Union. Sales of the product could grow further in foreign countries considering their populations.
Emerging markets for the DS, according to Iwata, include the likes of Russia and India. The Nintendo exec isn't only optimistic about DS sales, but also the gaming industry as the global economy craters.
"However, the current economic recession is something that happens only once in 50 or 100 years. We have to monitor the market very carefully," says Iwata. "Nintendo workers who know only the good times of the company are increasing. I hope to give them a sense of the potential critical nature [of the economic situation]." Just tell them stories about the GameCube days. That should do it.

Nintendo is giving one gamer a chance to take on Australian Open Champion, and third best tennis player in the world, Novak Djokovic in a game of Wii Tennis. But wait, there's quite a catch.
To be eligible to enter you must be able to travel to Melbourne any day during the first week of the Australian Open, which runs from Jan. 19 through Jan. 23... on your own dime if you don't live in Australia.
If you're OK with that, or live in Oz, than just hit up the link to submit 25 words or less explaining why you should get the chance to play tennis on Wii against the pro.
The good news is that even those who don't get to take on Djokovic can try their Wii Tennis skills out on professionals if they make it to the open. Lacoste's sponsored athletes including Tatiana Golovin and Richard Gasquet, and tennis legend Mats Wilander will be at Lacoste Centre Court, located at Melbourne Central Shot Tower Square on Level 1 to take on challengers.

A new report, entitled "Media Democracy," by research firm Deloitte claims that the average media-consuming Brit spends 6.6 hours per week playing video games. The most staggering finding in the report is that a quarter of respondents owned a Wii, while another quarter said they intended to buy one by the end of this year. That would mean the Brits owning a Wii would outnumber those who assisted in the great Adipose breeding program.
The research report also found that gaming is now considered "family time" for those between the ages of 26 and 42, with interest in the activity declining after 40. Speaking of which -- we can't confirm whether The Doctor has picked up a Wii, but we do know Her Majesty has done some Wii Sports bowling.

What would CES be without a little video gaming, huh? Thanks to Nyko, we won't ever have to find out (at least in 2009), as it's bringing a smattering of new Nintendo Wii accessories to the desert. Kicking things off right is the simply titled Wand, which is said to be the "world's most advanced alternative to the Wii remote." Aside from doing everything the Wiimote does, the April-bound device also features the firm's Trans-Port technology, which "enables control and vibration feedback to be electrically replicated on a compatible attachment accessory." Up next is the Charge Station EX ($34.99 this April), which improves upon its successor by adding a LED battery indicator and a "new sleek look." Finally, the Kama Charge Kit is an all-in-one charging solution while simultaneously stores and charges both the Wiimote and Kama controllers in one unit.

Given the success of the Wii in its home territory (and everywhere else for that matter), two things were bound to happen: love sims and pachinko games. While we've heard nothing about the love sims, despite the Wiimote clearly being the ultimate love sim peripheral, the pachinko games are on the way thanks to Yamasa Entertainment.
WiiWare will be getting Sugu Slot Duo New Pulsar R&V from Yamasa. While the Japan-only game was previously announced, the pachinko specialist shared details today.
Pulsar R&V includes simulations for two machines: New Pulsar R and New Pulsar V. Users can look forward to auto play along with all the features people have come to associate with pachinko game conversions. Thanks to the Wiimote, however, this first WiiWare pachinko game will have something past pachinko games have required a pricey peripheral to achieve: real lever controls for true single hand play!
Those who can't get enough of real pachinko at a pachinko parlor, and those who don't know what pachinko is in the first place, can look forward to New Pulsar R&V on January 13. Pricing is set at 1,000 WiiPoints.

Wii has its unique set of merits. But a lack of hard drive, minimal online play and awkward friend codes are some of the issues highlighted by gamers. But Nintendo IS listening, insists Nintendo of America boss Reggie Fils-Aime.
"We listen to our fans all the time," Reggie said when challenged on Nintendo's attitude towards such complaints.
"Nintendo fans are some of the most passionate in the world, and believe me, they make their opinions heard. We're not claiming our way of doing things is better or worse than anyone else - it's just different," he added.
"We listen very closely to what people have to say, both pro and con, and keep those feelings in mind as we plan ahead," Fils-Aime told GameDaily.
We don't expect any major changes to Wii in the remaining years of its life, but we have high hopes for the next Nintendo console.

Ubisoft has announced Grey's Anatomy: The Video Game, a game based on the acclaimed television drama series of the same name. Designed for the Wii, Nintendo DS, and PC, Grey's Anatomy is set for a early 2009 release.
"Ubisoft is thrilled to be collaborating with ABC Studios to turn this phenomenal television series into an interactive experience," said Christian Salomon, vice president of worldwide licensing at Ubisoft. "In Grey's Anatomy: The Video Game, fans will have a chance to take on the roles of all of their favorite doctors in an all-new original storyline. As each doctor, players will make important personal and professional decisions, explore the direct relationships with each other, and perform the delicate surgeries the series is known for, all through fun and engaging game play."
We're not exactly sure how you make a game based on drama-filled television series, but with it coming out in early 2009, it looks like we won't have to wait too long to find out.

Updated release from Justwoody
MahJongg Wii is a Mahjongg solitaire tiles game written specifically for the Wii, developed with devkitPro tools and using the GRRLib for rendering, sndlib for music and sound, and wiiuse for wiimote.
How to play
The goal is to clear the board by removing all the tiles. Tiles must remove in pairs. A pair consists of two tiles which both are a) "free" and b) identical (or of the same type).
A tile is "free" when:
No other tile is lying above or is partially covering it
No other tile is lying to the left or to the right of it (it can "slide" in one or both these directions)
Two tiles are identical if they look exactly the same. The exception to this are the Flowers and Seasons tiles. They are non-identical numbered matching tiles and belong to the same type. All the Flowers tiles match one another and all the Season tiles match one another.
There are four of each tile in the game except for the Flowers and Seasons tiles which appear only once.
It's not as easy as it sounds; you can end up with having matched the "wrong" pairs and you may find yourself stuck, with unmatchable tiles blocking other key tiles so you can't clear the layout. You must be careful before removing a pair, you should look for where the remaining pair is in the layout and plan ahead. If all four of an identical tile are free, remove them to 'unclutter' the field. It's not only a game of pure luck, you have to play strategically.
v0.7 06/01/09
Download - Mahjongg Wii v0.7
Changed to automatically select the language based on the Wii menu language settings (Nintendo only support Japanese, English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Dutch) but as Mahjongg Wii supports more languages, I have kept the language selection screen, but moved it to be accessible via the game options screen
Added three new tile layouts - fortress, crab and spider
Changed placement algorithm to handle complexity of new tile layouts
Added a layout selection screen which can be accessed by selecting change layout from options menu
Changed all the backgrounds from png to jpeg and at same time doubled their resolution so they now look much cleaner
Added hint functionality to the game (not hover hint) so that if it the icon is pressed a hint selection is highlighted in flashing yellow and 30 seconds are added to the time as a penalty
Added Wiimote rumble when a tile pair is successfully selected
Added an option to turn the rumble feature on or off
Added the saving and loading of configuration data to SD card (mahjongg.cfg on root of SD)
Added SDHC support
Added Danish language support
Wrote language selection paging - now with 9 languages per page with the plus and minus buttons (or on screen equivalents) used to move between them
Added button B usage as an alternative back button whilst in the menus
Added callback functions so that power and reset on the Wii now work and power button on the wiimote now turns the Wii off
Fixed several bugs
