So far, only the Opera browser and the Everybody Votes channel has been released through the “Wii Software” section of the Wii Shop, but there have been lots of murmurs about independent games eventually being released there too.

Now, “Medaverse” has announced they have been licensed as an official developer for the Nintendo Wii and are developing a new game called “Gravitronix“, slated for release in early 2008. They are being pretty cagey about exactly how the game plays (see the wholly uninformative Gravitronix WiiWare FAQ), but it sounds like it’s going to be 4 player (maybe 8), very competitive and maybe online.

From the press release:

“We’re looking forward to introducing our own unique style to the gaming world with Gravitronix,” Lowther said, “We hope to offer a fun and accessible gaming experience which is easy to learn but a challenge to master, including a robust multiplayer mode with enough hidden depth to keep even the most hardcore of players struggling to outdo each other. The way we see it, if you don’t swear when you lose to another player, we haven’t done our job.”

Sounds good .. lets hope they can pull it off !!
