In what may be Japan's only WiiWare (http://www.nintendowiifanboy.com/category/WiiWare/) release for May (much like Minna de Puzzloop (http://www.nintendowiifanboy.com/2008/04/16/puzzloop-for-everyone-in-japan-next-week/) was the only April release), Gameloft's Block Breaker Deluxe (http://www.nintendowiifanboy.com/2008/03/26/gameloft-brings-cell-phone-gaming-to-wiiware/) is now available for download in Japan. For 800 points, Japanese gamers can now play a decent-looking Breakout/Arkanoid clone with a neon visual theme and goofy images of "cool" people that make it look so much like a cell-phone game (which it was). Or Miami Nights (http://www.dsfanboy.com/2007/12/17/miami-nights-hotter-in-europe/).
We'd like to see this one soon within the U.S. launch of WiiWare, because we're perfectly willing to overlook all the posing jerks -- and the inauspicious origin of the game -- for a chance at a new big-screen Breakout game.
