Because we really needed another multi-sport game collection on the Wii, dtp entertainment (the German publisher behind the upcoming Next Top Model DS game) is releasing Summer Athletics this ... well, summer. The activities in this title will include jogging, cycling, hurdles, javelin, archery, hammer throw, and swimming. We're not sure how all of those will translate with the Wiimote -- the jogging might be similar to what we've seen from Wii Fit, and we suppose the archery, javelin, and hammer throw events could work. But hurdles? Cycling? Swimming? We'll be interested to see how those turn out.
You can also check out the game's teaser site here, which has some nice-looking images from the PC version of the game.

I've been waiting for a bicycling "game" forever. Well, at least since I got a taste of it in Smooth Moves.
It sounds like it may not be implemented well in this summer sports game, but we'll see. All I know is that I could play the warioware minigame for hours instead of the 5 seconds in the game.
