Exclusively for the Wii, Activision is bringing another entry in the Pitfall franchise to Nintendo's console. What has us confused about all of this, though, is that these images look very familiar to Pitfall: The Lost Expedition (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pitfall:_The_Lost_Expedition), which released on the previous generation of consoles. Could this just be a port of that game, now with waggle?
Our hunt for similar screens to compare has come up empty. The press release mentions there are over 60 levels to play, but says nothing to the fact that this looks like a game that already released 4 years ago. When we find out, we'll let you know.
