Game Wad is reporting that the following features will be included in Madden 08 for Wii when it’s released on August 14:

  • Real-time ESPN ticker updates
  • Online tournaments
  • Worldwide quickplay multiplayer matches
  • Promised roster updates not just for the 2008 season, but 2009 as well
  • Mini-game party mode, with 22 mini-games
  • Miis are used in minigames

To echo the sentiments of Eddie Inzauto, “That sure is a lot of online stuff for the Wii.” Indeed. Looking like an online blowout for Wii come this fall. Patience web fans. Patience.

    Nintendo Power said it is going to have all the online extras as its counterparts in 360 and PS3.

    I hope Nintendo finally makes me shut up about their lack of online gameplay support with this title and Mario Strikers!

    Madden 07 for the Wii even without online multiplayer had higher review scores then the 360 and the PS3 version.

    Madden 08 will be a blast on the Wii.
