Capcom is planning to launch a Monster Hunter Tri Bundle Pack United States containing the VideoGame in question and a Classic Controller Pro black, at a price of $ 59.99.

The Nintendo Wii offers an exciting way to play many of your favorite games. Face it; you love the tennis! But with Wii’s newest game to be released around September of this year, players will get a chance to participate in leisurely sports via the cutting-edge controllers. No, I’m not talking about casino games here. I’m talking about billiards.

In Tournament Pool, players get to experience a lifelike game of 8 or 9-ball, snooker, and bar pool among other games, in single-player or multiplayer format. Like most Wii games to date, this is set to be the ultimate in 3D interactive simulation, and will be the first pool game of its kind.

Tournament Pool is said to bring incomparable realism to the home console, combing authentic graphics with convincing features like cue action, English, and even the pool halls you’ll be playing in. Developed and published by Destineer, Tournament Pool is already creating a buzz in the Wii world.

Don’t have room for a pool table in your cramped apartment? That’s okay. Get a Wii and let the games begin.

Nintendo adds new and classic games to the Wii Shop Channel and two games to the WiiWare Channel. This week’s new games are:

WiiWare™

Dr. Mario® Online Rx (Nintendo, 1-4 players, Rated E for Everyone, 1,000 Wii Points): The doctor is in! Mario™ takes a break from his adventuring ways and once again dons his stethoscope for a new generation of germ-battling mayhem. In addition to the classic mode of using vitamins to exterminate viruses, you’ll find two battle modes and an online multiplayer mode where you can hone your skills against players from around the world. Feel like challenging a friend who doesn’t have Dr. Mario Online Rx? Then the WiiWare-exclusive Friend Battle Demo is just what the doctor ordered. Or maybe you’d like some help taking on those nasty viruses? Try out Virus Buster, where four players can simultaneously move capsules simply by pointing at them with a Wii Remote™ controller. Any way you look at it, Dr. Mario Online Rx is a prescription for fun that everyone can enjoy.

Family Table Tennis (Aksys Games, 1-2 players, Rated E for Everyone, 500 Wii Points): It’s time for some good old family fun, and what’s more fun than table tennis? Just like a real family, choose your character from a cast of four, which includes Daddy, Mommy, Sarah and Billy. There are four table tennis-tastic stages where it doesn’t matter if you’re an indoors or outdoors table-tennis player. Pick your poison from a gymnasium, a forest park, a beach or even an amusement park. Choose from Single or Versus mode, or select a minigame to play. In Versus mode, you and a friend can play against each other to see who is the better table-tennis player. And if Single and Versus modes aren’t enough, select between three minigames, which include Target Table Tennis, Thrilling Table Tennis and Matching Table Tennis. The appealing cell-shaded graphics and endearing music, on top of the super-fun game play, will have you and your family playing from morning till night. Get your paddles ready.

Virtual Console™

City Connection™ (NES®, 1-2 players, Rated E for Everyone - Comic Mischief, Tobacco Reference, 500 Wii Points): Based on the arcade hit, a young man born in California sets out to tour famous sites and cities around the world. As he drives the highways surrounding these locations, the road is painted white as proof of his visit. Only once all sections of the road have been painted will he move on to the next location in his world tour. Not surprisingly, the local police will chase the driver and do their best to stop him from completing his goal. In addition, cats roam the highways and spikes lie in wait for unsuspecting drivers. To combat these dangers, the driver’s customized car can jump, fire cans of oil and collect balloons to warp to a new stage. It’s the ultimate road trip.

Metal Slug (NEOGEO, 1-2 players, Rated T for Teen - Blood, Violence, 900 Wii Points): Released in 1996 by SNK, Metal Slug is a side-scrolling military-action game. Players control Marco and Tarma, both members of the special-ops force Team Peregrine Falcon (commonly known as Team PF), and battle their way through stage after stage of intense action. The goal is to try to overthrow General Morden and win back the stolen weapon, the Metal Slug. Players must blast through waves of enemies and machines (while also jumping over any obstacles in the way) to advance through the stages. It’s not as hopeless as it might sound, though—weapons such as heavy machine guns, shotguns, rocket launchers and flamethrowers, as well as the Metal Slug itself (which appears frequently in the game), will make the battle easier. Take on General Morden with a friend to lighten your load and ramp up the excitement even more.

AudiOdyssey is an experimental computer game designed to be accessible to both the visually impaired community and mainstream gamers. The user stars as Vinyl Scorcher, an up-and-coming DJ, on his quest to get club patrons dancing. Swinging the Nintendo Wii controller to the beat, Vinyl lays down the various component tracks of a song, and keeps the party jumping. If he does an especially good job, he can even freestyle! But beware - if dancers get too rowdy, they’re likely to bump into the turntables, messing up Vinyl’s tracks. Think you have what it takes?

In a recent interview with Suda 51, chairman of the Grasshopper development studio’s , taked about No More Heroes.

Available in recent weeks on Nintendo Wii, at least in Japan and the United States, it appears that this game was not meant for this console at the begining. Indeed, the president said he intends to develop the title on 360. But Yasuhiro Wada, president of Marvelous Interactive, it has strongly advised the Wii with its original and innovative gameplay:

“Initially, I wanted to develop this game for Xbox 360, actually. Wada-san had information on the Wii and on the functionality of the new controller before its release, which is why it thought that I should produce the game on this platform ”

Attracted by this grip intuitive, Suda 51 has therefore concentrated on the console on the market for Nintendo to develop their project.
