According to an update on Nintendo's online press room, the mini-game
compilation Wii Play will release in the Americas on February 12, 2007,
rather than during January as previously expected.
Similar to
Wii Sports, Wii Play features an assortment of games, such as
billiards, air hockey and ping pong. Additionally, the game will ship
with one Wii Remote packaged in, though it's unknown at this time how
the inclusion affects the retail price.
Although Wii Play
began merely as a set of tech demos, Nintendo Game Designer Shigeru
Miyamoto later proposed that those demos become a collection separate
from Wii Sports that would further demonstrate Wii's potential.
The Wiire will keep you informed on fluctuating release dates.
