Puzzloop for Everyone in Japan next week

Japan hasn't received any new WiiWare content since the service's March 25th launch, with the exception of DLC for Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life as a King and Lonpos. It would appear that WiiWare is on a monthly release schedule, because one new game has been announced for release next Tuesday: Minna de Puzzloop (Puzzloop for Everyone).

The puzzle game, about shooting marbles at same-color marbles as they come down a looped path, was originally released by developer Mitchell as an arcade game in 1998, but most gamers are most familiar with it as Magnetica on the DS. This 1000-Wii Point version supports four-player simultaneous play (though it doesn't seem to be playable online), and of course it also supports being able to buy it from your couch.

This game looks like the same idea as Luxor: Pharaoh's Challenge for the Wii, only much uglier and half the price.

what? don't compare Luxor to this! At least Pharoah's Challenge brang the ball-shooting puzzler to the desert, and it's an excellent version of the PC casual-gaming standard. This is just... not as addicting. Plus, it reminds me of Lumines.
