VC Friday: A new day for Samegame

by JC Fletcher { Jan 30th 2009 at 9:00AM }

This week on the PAL Wii Shop, it's WiiWare's time to ... uh ... "shine", with two new family-friendly multiplayer experiences -- one of which may be fun! Arc System Works' Family Glide Hockey is pretty much a non-starter, but Hudson's Pop Them, Drop Them SameGame might be of interest, should you be able to surmount the mental hurdle of oh come on another puzzle game. The core gameplay is, shall we say, proven (read: old), and the "Fame Game", "Shame Game", and "Blame Game" multiplayer modes are certainly named cutely enough to attract our attention.
  • Family Glide Hockey -- WiiWare -- 500 Wii Points
  • Pop Them Drop Them SAMEGAME -- WiiWare -- 500 Wii Points
Glide past the post break for videos of both games.
