Space Invaders Get Even Better: It's WiiWare!
Space Invaders Get Even, Taito's flip on the Invaders concept in which players control an alien mothership firing pixelly Invaders at Earth's cities, is on track for a summer release in Japan. The good news is that there's a fairly low barrier to quick localization, because Taito has just revealed that it's a WiiWare game!
Square Enix (who owns Taito) has been hesitant about Taito properties in the past (Majesco picked up Cooking Mama, for example, and SE has passed on the paddle controller made for Arkanoid DS and Space Invaders Extreme), but their WiiWare Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles game has gone well for them. Plus, there's the fact that Space Invaders Get Even will be way cheaper as a download than as a disc.
Our gallery has been attacked by an invading force of screens, showing not only invasion gameplay, but plenty of shots outlining the hu-mans' pitiful defenses.

I wish Taito would make a Space Mega Force sequel for Wii Ware instead. I looooved that game when I was a kid!

This game needs voice control.
