The first games are in sight. Should we beware of WiiWare?

Another puzzler, this time a jazzed up take on DS title Magnetica. Flicking marbles at other marbles was easy with a stylus, so expect some form of remote aiming here. We weren’t huge fans of the original - here’s hoping WiiWare doesn’t become a dumping ground for dud franchises. 

Star Soldier R
We saw videos of Hudson’s vertical-scroller a few months ago, but little did we know it was a WiiWare title. This version will play much the same as the original (available on Virtual Console) with five- and ten-minute high-score challenge ‘caravan modes’ and online leaderboards. Hudson are also releasing Bomberman through the downloadable service, though info and screens have yet to manifest themselves. Come on, Hudson - let’s see Bomberman!
