Samba de Amigo rumors return with a vengeance

Just when we thought NiGHTS was all we could expect, the Samba de Amigo port/remake rumors are back, and it looks like there might be something to them. A forum poster at NeoGAF popped up and said that the title appeared on a release list for GameStop. Normally, this would be enough to raise an eyebrow over and nothing more -- since we've seen no such list -- but then another poster popped up, started another thread, and mentioned the same thing. We may not be too bright, but we can add two and two (with mechanical aid). One poster said only "next year," and the other specified February. We'll keep our ear to the ground, but for now, we are enjoying tentative hopes that we'll be getting our shake on soon after the first of the year.

This game would be the perfect game to play on the Wii.

I'd love to play this game on the Wii! Maybe this would be another good thing for Sonic Team, along with NiGHTs.

Yes, please, yes.

Sonic Team is the fourth best developer out there, after Nintendo EAD, Retro Studios, and HAL Labs

I was at my local Gamestop tonight and had them print out a list of upcoming Wii games and Samba was listed for 2-5-08. Probably just a placeholder but that puts it out of the "rumor" range for me!
