EA has confirmed that Wii sing-along Boogie will come with its own karaoke microphone when it's released in Europe on 31st August.

The publisher also released a full tracklist for the game, which will include hits from The Jackson 5, Britney Spears, Red Hot Chili Peppers and Kool & The Gang.

Boogie is billed as the Wii's answer to the incredibly popular Sony hit, SingStar - a karaoke game that lets you belt out your favourite songs and scores you on how well you perform.

However, EA is attempting to take things a step further with Boogie, by using the motion-sensing abilities of the console to track your movements so you can dance along, too.

"This is a breakthrough game with a landmark soundtrack," said Steve Schnur, big cheese of music at EA. "We've brought together generations of the biggest hits in pop music history for a game that takes Wii innovation to a whole new level. Boogie is truly the ultimate family fun experience."

The full tracklist can be found below. It looks pretty good to us.
