Party on Wayne, Party on Tetris

When you can't think of an original name for a new Wii title, simply add "party" to the end and call it a day. The Wii is great for parties, so reminding everyone of their obligation to entertain friends while gaming is standard issue these days. The upcoming Tetris game for WiiWare admirably follows this trend, with the latest information on Hudon's Japanese website displaying a name change and a lamentable delay.

Tetris Party is no longer released in July 2008; we're stuck with a "sometime 2008" instead. Well, that's for Japanese Wii owners, but hopefully the localization won't take a decade or something. All joking about the name aside, there's no reason this shouldn't be a great game. Tetris always is!

Mii integration is cool, but this definitely doesn't have the charm of the Nintendo offerings, such as Dr. Mario Online Rx or Tetris DS.

I'm fine with it so long as it's anywhere near as fun as Tetris DS.

I want this game bad since I wasted 10 bucks on Dr. Mario.

I hope this has two player co-operative tetris, my brother and I had so much fun with that on an NES 112-in-1 for emulator, of course it always ended in "what is wrong with you?! Why would you put that peice there?! You suck!" then we'd do solo tetris and he'd always manage to win, even though I beat him 2:1 every time we played push tetris on the DS. I really love tetris.
