Competitive pair join WiiWare roster

Air hockey! Puzzles! Funny joke!

Nintendo has slapped two more games into the WiiWare Store.

The wacky Pop Them, Drop Them SAMEGAME heads the update at 500 Wii Points (approx GBP 3.50 / EUR 5). It's an action puzzle game from Hudson based around matching blocks.

There's also multiplayer for up-to four, where you can play the brilliantly-named Shame Game mode. There's a Fame Game and Blame Game, too. We're sure we've played these before.

The other game is Family Glide Hockey for 500 Wii Points (approx GBP 3.50 / EUR 5). Guilty Gear creator Arc System Works made this, using a cel-shaded style and including multiplayer for up-to four people. Also, mini-games.

But forget those, because Eurogamer contributor Dan Whitehead (he who reviewed Killzone 2) has a very good joke to share.

"What do you call a tiny lycantrope?" asked he. "A WiiWare Wolf."

Remarkable.
