The PS3 and Xbox 360 thought they had it all, but they don't. Fresh from yesterday's Sonic footage on both those consoles, Sega has announced that the Sex Pistols haircut-sporting hedgehog will be haring onto the Nintendo Wii in Sonic Wild Fire (working title).
It's the first solo adventure for the character since 1991's original Sonic The Hedgehog, challenging the fellow to recreate the last chapters of the classic Arabian Nights tale. We're promised a "refreshing new look" filled with "brightly colored mosaic tiles, glistening oases, swaying palm trees, and crumbling stone columns."

According to Sega of America, the game breathes "untapped freedom in gameplay and control", with gamers tilting the horizontal controller to steer Sonic left and right. You'll also be able to fling it forward (while still holding it, we hope), which will activate a dash attack for falling enemies and smashing barriers.
There is also the promise of "unique controller-focused mini-games" with multiplayer options. Super. Sonic Wild Fire will be available next year, we imagine, quite close to the console's launch.
