Is anyone going to buy Wii Chess? Sure it's a Europe exclusive game, but it will probably be ported to America and Japan sooner or later, maybe sometime in 2008 or 2009, or maybe even 2010. It's planed to be released in Europe at the end of the year (2007). I don't know if the game will be published in Russia 2007, it should be. It's a tentative title developed and published by Nintendo exclusively for Wii. By the way, why shouldn't Nintendo publish this game outside Europe? It's just a question about when it will be released, not if...
This is another reason to buy a Wii...
...but the chess skill won't be so high, it will just be a fun thing to experience as a chess player. There will also be online gaming with Wii Chess. It's a revolution for both chess and videogames; A VIRTUAL CHESS GAME!!! You can't take the game too seriously. This game is meant to be fun, even for chess beginners and those who doesn't play chess at all. Maybe they won't be first at the leaderboards, but they MUST HAVE FUN, like the chess elites.
Looks fun for me...
What do you think? Will the WORLDS FIRST VIRTUAL CHESS GAME become a success? I hope so, else it won't be funny to play Wii Chess on Wi-Fi (online)...

NOTE: You won't find some information about this game easily, maybe even not at all. Nintendo wants to keep the info private and I don't know more about it... Sorry, I don't work for Nintendo!
