Nintendo launches new web game, suggests you play on Wii browser

Nintendo has launched a new web-based game called Chick Chick Boom. The game itself pits two teams against each other, you with your noble chicks and Poster Bunny with his evil team, as you, in Worms-like fashion, try to take the other team out. You do so by tracing objects, which then manifest themselves in the game and deal out damage. Tracing an anvil might drop a large recliner or TV on your opponent, or you could trace a bomb and, depending on how accurate the trace is, deal out some big damage.
We have yet to give the game a whirl through the Wii's Opera browser, but how about you all?

its really odd... its supposed to be played on the Wii's opera browser but it seems like its incomplete when you go there on it....
I'm using my Wii browser to type this right now!!

Agree with gudaman. Doesn't work in the browser. Maybe this is in time for the complete version.

The terms of use state you need Flash 8 or higher...
My hi-score for pro is 215. I hit a glitch that all my chicks acted as one. When they were in the balloon only one counted as dead and the others were no longer in play. Meaning I could have gone on forever... There is a hidden wallpaper, quickly click on the rolled up scroll behind Snow Chubby, the star of the Christmas advent calendar by Extra Toxic and Nintendo.

I haven't tried yet on Wii, but shouldn't everyone see the same results when using the Wii since it's all the same browser? It's odd that it only works for some.

Amazing. Nintendo endorses a game with which their own software isn't even compatible...
Too bad, the game itself was pretty decent.

I just covered this game in my column and gave NWFB the awesome credit it deserves. You do a great job. I agree with everyone that this game didn't work in my Wii Opera browser, but I still liked it.
