Sailor Moon Wii rumored, five free fan games incoming

Sailor Moon Wii rumored, five free fan games incoming photo
     wii

Clearly, the world needs a game solely based on Tuxedo Mask. But while somebody figures that out, here's a handful of new Sailor Moon goods: YesAsia has posted an SKU revealing a Namco-developed Sailor Moon Wii game that is scheduled for release in Japan at the end of the year. Neither Namco or YesAsia were available to confirm the game, but if Brandon believes it, then that's good enough for me.  In completely unreleated news, he also spotted someone's freeware work dealing with fighting evil by moonlight (and winning love by daylight):

Sailor Moon Plus, a five-part game series using the Beats of Rage engine, which follows the story loosely through several episodes and iterations of the original tale, while also adding new elements at times. Three parts are currently available, with more promised. It's generally fashioned after the SNES game (certainly using some of its sprites - the screenshot to the left is from SMP), but seems to be a fair bit better in execution. Seeing as it's the Beats of Rage engine, this means you can play the game on a variety of consoles as well as PC. 

It seems some of the download links are momentarily broken, but you can get one of the full games free on the PC, PSP, XBOX, GP2x, and Dreamcast here.  (45mb).

A Sailor Moon game is exactly what Wii fanboys have been craving.

"I think the fat one and Tuxedo Mask should hook up."

Sorry, I already called dibs on the fat one.

Mr. tuxedo can have the one with the scary eyes.

I'll admit it. I watched Sailor Moon. All the time. It's one of my dirty little secrets.

That said, I'm not at all excited for this game. Unless maybe Sailor Mars gets nekkid...

Sailor Mars? She was cute, but everyone knows Mercury is where it's at. I'd love to see a Sailor Moon on Wii. I have an ex who will go ballistic when she hears that. Also, this idea of a Sailor Moon on the Beats of Rage intrigues me, and I would like to subscribe to your newsletter...

I'm actually the creator of the Sailor Moon Destiny Revival project *that's the appropriate title for it* and I'm glad to see that you guys picked up on Sailor Moon Plus! ^^ You guys can find out more about the series (including non-broken links) and various other Sailor Moon gaming information at sailorvgame.org and sailor-games.com. The 2nd game of the series, Sailor Moon R, should be coming out in the next few months and I've made some drastic changes to the original game but mainly to make sure that the game does not follow the anime correctly plus I added new levels, new enemies/bosses and even new unlockables! Check it out and thanks again for posting news about Sailor Moon Plus!
