Nintendo’s next ‘Wii Series’ game is Wii Party

As part of an investor briefing today, Satoru Iwata revealed that Nintendo is hard at work on the next game in their flagship line of Wii-centric games. We’re talking the ones with “Wii” in the title, like Wii Fit and Wii Music. The stuff where when it’s about to come out you have to wonder how it is anyone can afford to market a product that densely.

That next game is going to be Wii Party. So, I’m guessing it’s going to be Mario Party but without all the charm and character of the Mushroom Kingdom and instead using your Miis? Well, I’m at least right about the Miis, as Iwata’s detailing of the game made mention of the feature. And it will be a “party” game, though that could mean just about anything by this point. Yippee.

I’m sure it will be obscenely successful.
