Personally I think it looks like a good time, especially for 500 points. 4 player local FTW! And cool art style too.

February 29, 2008 - XGen Studios announced this week that it is prepping a new version of its classic title Defend Your Castle for Nintendo's WiiWare service. The title, which will cost 500 Wii Points, will be available on May 12 with the launch of WiiWare. Here are first details and screens courtesy of the company.

"The Barbarian hordes have amassed their forces once again to challenge your domain. Will you and your court rise to the challenge, or stand aside as the invaders raze your Castle to the ground?"

Features at a glance:

 

  • Four-player jump-in cooperative gameplay - Defend your Castle with up to three pals!
  • Compete with your friends for kingship - Get crowned for dominating other players and earn the right to manage the Kingdom!
  • Completely new visuals and animation
  • Enhanced physics & particle effects
  • Repel even faster and more massive waves of invaders
  • Not a port of the original - Defend Your Castle has been re-created from the ground up to utilize the unique capabilities of the Nintendo Wii and Wii Remote
  • Unlimited levels - Continue to grow the strength of your Kingdom indefinitely
  • Play on your big screen TV, from your couch!

"Back off, man. I'm a scientist."

Your theories are the worst kind of popular tripe, your methods are sloppy, and your conclusions are highly questionable! You are a poor scientist. Especially if you think the moon landing was faked.

God that looks fun. Gotta love the Pepsi cap monster thing, and the use of popsicle sticks as weapons.

love the style

Lies. The Wii can't handle "Enhanced physics & particle effects" and "Completely new visuals and animation ". It's simply not on the hardware.

On a more serious note, I love all this WiiWare stuff that has been coming lately. Nintendo is really supporting small developers and new ideas. I will get this one.

I can't tell what the hell is going on with those pic's, but if that's the style then kudo's xD
