FINALLY, Cave Story comes out for WiiWare. Is it worth the wait and 1200 points?

The big release coming this Sunday will be the new DSi XL. Along with it, Nintendo is releasing America’s Test Kitchen and WarioWare DIY. And now Nintendo is putting out Game & Watch titles for download, kinda makes me want a DSi.

The other big DS releases this week are Shin Megami Tensei and Dawn of Heroes. The Wii gets a new MotionPlus game, Red Steel 2, which we hope will be better than the first Red Steel game. But if there’s one game coming out that I need to learn more about, it has to be Squishy Tank. How about you? Click on in for the full list.

During an important conference call yesterday Ubisoft accidently let slip that Red Steel 2 is currently deep in development for a release before March 2010. While announcing the return of franchises for the new fiscal year Ubisoft president Yves Guillemot stumbled upon the return of a MotionPlus controlled Red Steel 2.

Talks of a sequel to the Wii FPS launch title have been floating around since E3 2007, but we have yet to have an “official” confirmation. However, today’s slip up pretty much sets a sequel in stone. I can’t wait to see a 1:1 control interface for both the gunplay and sword dueling. Here’s to online play!

Minus the poor control scheme, I found the original Red Steel to be quite a blast. It was a Wii FPS built from the ground up that was actually aimed at an older crowd. Pick it up if you haven’t yet done so. You can’t beat a used game for $10 bucks.
