With its motion-sensing technology, the Wii Remote is a perfect match for titles packed with minigames. Wii Sports, Rayman Raving Rabbids, and Super Monkey Ball Banana Blitz are already out for the Wii, and WarioWare Smooth Moves is due out in a few weeks.
Another collection of minigames, Wii Play, is apparently giving itself a little breathing room from the crowded genre. On the Nintendo press site, Wii Play is listed as releasing on February 12, 2007. The game was previously listed as releasing on January 15--the same day WarioWare hits shelves.
Though the game is already available in Japan and Europe, Nintendo hasn't given any reason for pushing the game back in North America. One theory deals with the Wii Remote that is bundled with it. Hardware shortages aren't just limited to the Wii console; they're also happening for accessories such as extra Wii Remotes.
