ame nerds as one of the better video pinball games out there (at least until Devil's Crush came out). Originally made by the now-defunct Naxat Soft, Alien Crush's rights have been picked up by Hudson, the publisher behind this new WiiWare entry. And, surprise, it's coming to the U.S., too! (A solid release date doesn't exist, but since the game has been out in Japan a while, it shouldn't be much longer.)
Being a hardcore gamer (especially one who grew up in the 80s and most of the 90s) means daydreaming about classic franchises that deserve a comeback. Most receive the sequel or reboot treatment, and some of them come out of nowhere. Games like Excitebike: World Rally and Contra ReBirth were expected, but Blaster Master Overdrive? Here are a handful of surprise games we never saw coming.

At the start of every month, this article will be dedicated to reviewing the WiiWare titles that have been released during the past month on the Wii Shop Channel, with our verdict as to whether or not they are worth downloading. We realise we have fallen behind from when we originally launched this feature, but with a little reshuffling of responsibilities between staff members, we're confident it will be maintained."
Hudson recently held a press event for the press in San Francisco and Nintendojo was lucky enough to get an invite. While the purpose of the event was to show off Hudson's upcoming releases for 2009, the selection of games would make you think it was a Wii-specific event.
God, I wish Hudson would stop this stupid crap and just get Bomberman 64 on VC already.
