Nintendo's new Wiiware serviced launched yesterday, May 12th with six new games for the wii. Wiiware is a service Nintendo launched to allow more third-party developers to create games for the Wii. It's accessed through the Wii shop channel as a download so they don't have to deal with the whole creating the game case and disc and all of that. The new six launch titles are: Square Enix's Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life as a King, Frontier Development's LostWinds, XGen Studios' Defend your Castle, Nnooo's Pop, High Voltage Software's V.I.P. Casino: Blackjack, and Gameloft's TV Show King. Nintendo eventually plans to have over 100 Wiiware games, but this is it for now. My guess is they will have weekly releases like for the Virtual Console. Hopefully, we'll see some games we would've never suspected would make a console, and maybe we'll see some really memorable ones, only the future can tell.
