They'd be fools not to have it be a launch title.

I agree. It's their biggest WiiWare property so far, plus it has broad appeal. And they've been hyping it quite a bit (it's in the WiiWare intro videos, etc.). I want it right now!

I find it difficult to imagine that Hudson will be able to surpass the greatness that is Tetris DS. As far as I'm concerned, that is the best version of Tetris that has yet been made with its perfect mix of Nintendo 8-bit glory, and it'll take quite something to unthrone it.

Frankly, I'd also love to see an updated Dr Mario on the DS as well. Sure, I could easily get a used Gameboy Color and the original Dr Mario cart for under twenty bucks from the store around the corner, but it would make a perfect addition to the other puzzler greats I own for the DS already. ... I'm not a big fan of having as many systems as possible.

Perfect example of the dangers of quoting out of context! I didn't say it's the biggest WiiWare property, I said it's their biggest WiiWare property. As far as I can recall, the only other announced WiiWare title from Nintendo is that damn Pokémon farm game.

PS: Does anyone know whether WiiWare games can be gifted?
