Niki - Rock 'n' Ball possibly on PAL WiiWare this week


All right, we watched this trailer, and we're still pretty cloudy on the details. Apparently Plättchen had a story -- and it ties into the story of Bplus's next game, Niki - Rock 'n' Ball. Developer Bplus is, rather surprisingly, expecting to launch Niki this week, according to the Nintendo Channel, although Bplus just says "soon". Taking a lesson from Plättchen's reception, they're pricing Niki at 500 Wii Points.

The new trailer is part of the newly-opened Niki website, in which you can see control diagrams of the game's motion-based and "retro" sideways-Wiimote control schemes, learn about the various low-poly creatures inhabiting the world, and, perhaps most importantly, read Niki's story in legible text instead of teensy subtitles.
