Some more King Story details from IGN:
http://wii.ign.com/articles/816/816609p1.html
"The game begins in a small town that, aside from your own home, consists of nothing but green fields. As you walk around, residents of this little town will follow you. Group enough people together, and you can start issuing orders for tasks like clearing the land, searching for treasure, and building roads and houses. Different tasks require different numbers of people, with groups ranging from just a few people to scores of people."
"Outside of this hefty simulation component, King Story is expected to have a more personal side, where all residents have a life of their own. By communicating with some characters, you may find yourself presented with dramatic story sequences. In previous interviews, the staff has hinted at plans to have RPG-style developments the background; for the record, the game's genre is listed in Famitsu as both simulation and RPG."

And a few more details on Camelot's Wii Golf game from 1up:
http://www.1up.com/do/newsStory?cId=3162394
"The Wiimote in the game will act as the golf club. Players can designate the direction by pointing at the screen and when swinging, the screen will show a first person view simulating a golf swing with the ball on the floor. Experts can also show off their technique such as backspins as well as draws and fades."

King Story sounds great, looking forward to footage from TGS, and Wii Love Golf sounds promising. It's good see more Japanese developers bringing decent games to Wii.
The, Wii Love, line of games could be big for Capcom. They're missing out on a lot of money with their focus on hardcore content, and by teaming up with Camelot they're not having to sacrifice any of their internal teams, most of which don't seem suited to casual games. With Wii's audience growing so rapidly, they have the potential to be as popular as the Minna no series on PS2 and become some of Japan's favourite casual sports games.
EDIT-
I'd love a Mario Tennis game with lite RPG, like the GBA game, on Wii, so if Wii Love Tennis does come out from Camelot it could be excellent!

Wow! King story looks better than I thought from the blurry pictures!
I really can't wait.
I really can't wait.
King Story looks great, I especially like the color palette used, and the char/monster designs. It reminds me of some weird mating between obscure German RTSes and the Harvest Moon games :lol Do we know any details about the battle system, yet? Haven't had time to read the whole thread.

You force people to follow you and they fight. I'm assuming it's better to have knights follow you than normal villagers.
The bigger the monster, the more people you need.

Thanks, Scrubking.
I love the mob behind the king going after the dragon.
I wonder if you'll fight any giants.

It's for the good of the king! Besides, I'm sure there will be a necromancer job so you can bring them back as zombies.
A few more Wii Love Golf details from IGN:
"You aim your shot by first pointing at the screen; this is meant to be similar to how a real golfer will use his club to get all his angles straight. To swing, you first hold down the buttons on the Wiimote, which is the equivalent of gripping your golf club.
The result of your swing is affected by more than just the way in which you swing the Wiimote. The combination of buttons that you hold when gripping the Wiimote also results in a variety of shot types. You can achieve draw and fade shots and add backspin based on how you hold and swing the controller. For instance, to perform a backspin, you hold down the 2 button along with A."
"In fact, he believes that people will feel that We Love Golf uses the Wiimote better than any other Wii sports game that's currently available.
We Love Golf is currently 60% complete and is due for Japanese release this Winter. "
