For those who haven’t heard of this unique title heading to the Wii from Hudson Entertainment; Lost in Shadow is a puzzle platformer that puts you in the shadows. You are the personification of a young boy’s shadow who is, in essence, trying to climb a tower to reunite with his body. To get to his body he has to climb a giant tower before nightfall, and the only way is to interact with the shadows, climbing them, and interacting with them.

Is the sagging job market keeping you down? Feeling unemployed, useless, and pathetic? Hudson Entertainment understands, and they want to give you a job. Sort of.  Help Wanted, due out Summer 2009, is an “life-simulation” game where the player has to take on a series of odd jobs to save the planet from a errant meteor.  How exactly working a nine to five cleaning an airliner is going to save the planet from a chunk of cosmic rock isn’t clear, but that plane’s not going to clean itself.  Mini-game collections are a dime a dozen on the Wii, but at least this one seems to have a comical twist.  Hit the jump for the press release.
