    Wii fans may not yet recognize the name Chillingo, but iPhone owners probably do. Along with Ngmoco, whose most popular game is Rolando (a LocoRoco-like platformer), the company is leading the charge where organized game development is concerned on Apple's platform. And in a recent interview with Pocket Gamer, Chillingo director Chris Byatte said that the studio was underway with an ambitious new project that it planned to release for both iPhone and WiiWare.

    He described the still-unnamed title as "... a true Rolando killer with a 3D twist."

    Rolando is widely recognized as one of iPhone's best games. Players maneuver spherical platform characters through colorful worlds by tilting the iPhone and by manipulating both the unwitting heroes and the world with their fingers via the system's touch-screen interface. Whatever Chillingo has planned for iPhone and WiiWare will probably play similarly given Byatte's description.

    The only other detail the director let slip is that the so-called Rolando killer will also include a feature that enables players to purchase new worlds, thereby extending replay value. Whether or not this feature will make it over to the WiiWare iteration -- thus far, WiiWare games have not supported microtransactions -- has yet to be confirmed.

    Harmonix and MTV Games announced today 18 new tracks coming this week to the Rock Band™ Music Store catalogue of downloadable content for the Wii system, including seven tracks from 80s power rockers REO Speedwagon and Styx.

Two classic punk tracks are also on the way courtesy of The Clash's "Complete Control" from the band's self-titled 1977 debut album and The Ramones' "Teenage Lobotomy" from Rocket to Russia (1977). Rounding out the content updated is Devo's "Girl U Want," the first single from the band's album Freedom of Choice (1980).

    Fans of the popular Animal Crossing series can enjoy a pair of downloadable -- and practical -- debuts this week via the Nintendo DSiWare service. Whether you're telling time or doing arithmetic, these handy applications will give your daily number-crunching a critter-friendly boost. A new WiiWare game also takes a fun peek into the animal kingdom, while the latest Virtual Console release sends players underwater for classic Commodore 64 action.

    Nintendo DSiWare

    Animal Crossing Calculator (Nintendo, 1 player, 200 Nintendo DSi Points): Need to figure out what you owe Tom Nook or the amount in your savings account? Animal Crossing Calculator features the full functionality of a traditional calculator, including a Memory key and the ability to display up to 13 digits, adding a layer of atmosphere unique to Animal Crossing. Use the Unit Converter to turn one unit of measure into another (such as length, weight, volume and age), or track the history of calculations you've performed. Listen to the Animalese pronunciation of numbers when you press them, and watch for a favorite Animal Crossing character to appear when your result meets certain criteria. Get ready for an inventive and practical way to experience the charm of Animal Crossing.

    Animal Crossing Clock (Nintendo, 1 player, 200 Nintendo DSi Points): Enjoy the atmosphere of Animal Crossing in a whole new way with Animal Crossing Clock. Select from either an analog or digital clock and set up to three alarms (with snooze functionality for those who need it). Make your own Town Tune or use sounds created in Nintendo DSi Sound, then assign them to the alarms you've set. Use the system's internal clock or offset the time however you like. Then sit back and watch as different characters from Animal Crossing appear and the color of the sky changes as time passes. You'll never miss an important appointment with one of your Animal Crossing friends again.

    WiiWare

    Penguins & Friends - Hey! That's My Fish! (Gammick Entertainment, 1-4 players, Rated E for Everyone, 800 Wii Points): The penguins are hungry and need your help. Catch all the fish you can before someone steals them from you. Strategy is fundamental in this exciting game. Keep moving ahead of the other penguins so you don't get trapped, and try to get to the ice floes that hold more fish. One to four players can play Penguins & Friends at the same time, provided they can handle the polar cold. The board is made up of ice blocks with a set number of fish under them. The ice blocks are hexagonal and form a structure like a beehive. The starting position of the ice blocks can change, creating different game boards.

    Virtual Console

    Tower Toppler (Commodore 64, 1 player, Rated E for Everyone, 500 Wii Points): Weird things are happening on Planet Nebulus. Someone or something has begun building huge towers on the sea floor without a construction license. Your mission is to ascend each of the eight cylindrical towers, passing various obstacles along the way, and to trigger the tower's destruction mechanism to demolish the evil threat. Praised upon its original 1987 release for its graphical innovation, this is considered to be the most outstanding game from Hewson. Don't miss out on this classic favorite.

    Nintendo adds new titles to the Nintendo DSi Shop and the Wii Shop Channel at 9 a.m. Pacific time on Mondays. Users with broadband Internet access can redeem Wii Points or Nintendo DSi Points to download the games. Wii Points can be purchased in the Wii Shop Channel.

    If you're a top sci-fi author and have just completed your fifth novel, what do you do next? Develop a Speccy game based on your latest novel, of course. And that's exactly what Andy Remic has done with BIOHELL. The novel was released in February 2009, and is now available in Speccy form via an intriguing looking first-person graphic adventure. The plot is, as you'd expect for a game based on a novel, quite detailed and follows your character's journey through a zombie-infested city to find out just what is going on. Fortunately, you've brought along a few essentials to fend off any threats with an assortment of guns and bombs. With advanced battle AIs, aliens, zombies, Speccy graphics pushed to the max, and a plot to outgun the Resident Evil franchise, there's no reason why you wouldn't want to play this game. To get the download, and to take part in a great competition, go to Andy Remic's website now.
