Forums - Nintendo - Popcorn? (Wii)

ok i'm not a prolific maker of threads and was hoping for something more interesting for my first thread.

i have just checked Amazon.co.uk to have a look at recently released games for Wii (as well as Nunchuck availability and the PStwo price) and there seem to be a sudden influx of games with names like "POPCORN: Ninja Bread Man"..... There are 23 games in all, 4 of which are already released and all starting "POPCORN:"

 

anyone have any ideas who is making these games? i am assuming a European developer as i checked Amazon.com and couldn't find these games.

i might update with a list of games.

if link stretches the page i will try to fix it, but i find this site very complex for weird code.

yeah its an influx of EU games---there was an article on IGN about it...

http://wii.ign.com/articles/768/768435p1.html

it was a bunch of shovel wear that might have agem or two



 

yeah i noticed they were all only £20,the "desktop racing" one actually intrested me before i realised it was with all those other games.

still hoping for micromachines VirtualConsole release



Budget games aimed at young kids. They seem to have maybe 4 games (platformer, racing, marble, and another I think) which they just reuse with different characters/cars/etc. but all look pretty much the same.



 

My local blockbuster has a whole row of them for sale at £20 each.
Looking at the reverse box images they look like games you might buy for £10 off an internet gaming sites.

They should have called one Helo4 it might have got a 9.5/10 :P

^your blockbuster has Wii games?

is it only games to buy or can you rent them too? because i asked a woman in my local blockbuster about Wii games but she didn't know much other than they just didn't have any.



They've had Wii games for rent at my local blockbuster for ages. First renatl I got was back in January of this year iirc. I tried out Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz. The only minigame I was really into was the one where you get shot out of a cannon in the ball and then you open your wings and fly about trying to collect bananas before landing on a target for "massive damage".

For some reason I read "Poptarts" the first time...
