This. Smarty Pants, Boogie and Boom Blox are the three EA Wii franchises that could be casual blockbusters if handled and marketed correctly.

Unfortunately, Boogie Superstar seems to remedy none of the faults with the original, there's no sign of a Smarty Pants sequel and the marketing for Boom Blox - key for reaching beyond the more informed and aware core audience - has been shite.

There has been an MTV show like this for a long time. I don't think they are going to sue more due to a game.

Rock nd Jock? They still have it? MTV games should seriously consider 1-uping EA with their roster.

About the same number of times those companies release the same sports games with different rosters?

More mini-games? Alright, but most of the ones mentioned have already been packaged in other mini-games. This time with celebrities? Really?

I'm not one to talk shit about casual, mini-games, as I do enjoy my fair share, but this is absolutely reaching for the bottom of the idea barrel.

Every one a fun, engaging, unique, well thought out experience, and a sequel to any of these would be most welcome, not this Wii: Celebrity Showdown tripe.

More sports mini-games? That market is getting more and more crowded by the minute. Making casual games is not an excuse for lack of imagination. And at 40€ no less? EA's pricing is really optimistic with their casual titles.

We don't know why he keeps buying PAL, either.
With this and Animal Crossing, how can the Core gamer be dissapointed?
