Hopefully, this will come to North America also......



This week sees the launch of a new service added to the Wii Shop Channel, in the form of ongoing downloadable WiiWare demos. Containing a taster of the full version of a WiiWare game, WiiWare demos offer players the ability to trial select WiiWare games without using up any of their Wii Points, giving players the enjoyment of testing out the game before ultimately deciding whether to download the full version of the game or not using their Wii Points.

Every WiiWare demo featured on the Wii Shop Channel will be available for a limited time only ensuring the line-up is constantly kept refreshed to provide players with a varied and entertaining experience. Players will be able to see the WiiWare demos currently available for download via a dedicated list on wiiware.nintendo.co.uk as well as on the Wii Shop Channel itself.

Available across Europe from the 5th November 2010, players will be in for a treat as four WiiWare demos are made available to play including Furry Legends Demo (Gamelion), Jett Rocket Demo (Shin’en Multimedia), ThruSpace™ Demo (Nintendo) & Zombie Panic in Wonderland Demo (Akaoni Studio).

As if that wasn’t enough, there’s also an array of new, full version WiiWare & Nintendo DSiWare games available for download this Friday. From a reaction taxing puzzle with ThruSpace™: High Velocity 3D Puzzle on WiiWare, to the brain-teasing Bookworm™, on Nintendo DSiWare. And whatever hero you worship, from superhero to rock hero, GO Series: Fatal Blow and Rytmik Rock Edition on Nintendo DSiWare have them both.

I liked the demo from "Zombie Panic in Wonderland" best, which is a simple, "Cabal" style shmup. Probably still won't buy any of the demoed titles, none of them was that good and for 10.- I can actually get retail games like "Little Kings Story" these days...

IGN reports that NOA announced that starting Nov. 22nd, Wii Ware Demo's will be available for North America.

"The initial lineup of demos available on Nov. 22 includes Bit.Trip Fate, And Yet It Moves, ThruSpace and Jett Rocket. Additional demos will be added on Mondays and each will remain available on the Wii Shop Channel for a limited time."

Meanwhile we also got a demo for Chronos Twins DX last week and Bit.Trip Fate yesterday. We didn't get And Yet It Moves in Europe so far though.

Make sure to have a look at the Jett Rocket demo, a game from Germany!

The next demo we're getting is for Robox, albeit I'm not expecting much since NintendoLife rated it only 5/10...
