Wii in August

July 16, 2008    Category: Wii Gaming    No Comments »

The coming late summer and fall season is full of new Wii game releases specifically aimed at the back to school audiences, and the month of August is no exception. There’s plenty of sports, fantasy and other games, targeted mainly towards the younger audiences, coming out in August, but not nearly as many titles as there are coming out in the early and late fall months. My guess is, it’s summer in August, and kids are going to be outside as much as they can be. Which is why the best games are marketed to interrupt homework as much as possible. So, pay attention and let us know which ones you’re really counting on.

Sports games are the major event for August, and even Mario is tagging along, with the major Nintendo release of Mario Super Sluggers aka Super Mario Stadium Family Baseball, and to top off the baseball madness, is Little League World Series, also released in August. The baseball titles will be followed up by other sports games such as Tiger Woods PGA Tour 09 All-Play, and Madden NFL 09 All-Play. If football, golf, and baseball don’t do it for you, there will also be two more puzzle/card games to tickle your Wii, such as Margot’s Word Brain, and King of Clubs. The younger audiences will no doubt appreciate titles such as “Defendin’ de Penguin”, and Sam & Max: Season One –you remember, the comic book from 1987 with the dog detective and that weird rabbit thing? They’re soon to be running amok in a living room near you.

For the rest of us, there are staged to be a few more adventure releases, that hopefully won’t turn anyone’s mind into total mush, or force us to learn six new ways to play solitaire. Brave: A Warrior’s Tale for Wii, sounds promising, despite there being some anonymity in regards to what exactly the game is about. Then there’s Brothers in Arms: Double Time, and Rebel Raiders: Operation Nighthawk also set to emerge in August. More army propaganda that will have you ready to join the military after a solid twelve hours of game play.
