September 12th, 2008 · 3 Comments

In a surprise move, Nintendo have announced a new brand, targeted at casual gamers, much like EA’s ‘Freeplay’ range. This new brand goes by the name of ‘Shake it Up Baby’, and will allow less seasoned gamers to jump right in to the most complicated of games.

In an interview with Sarcastic Gamer, a Nintendo representative gave the following comment:

“The ‘Shake it Up Baby’ franchise will allow us to reach out to non-gamers, and get them involved in Nintendo’s line of consoles and games. We are very excited for this new opportunity.”

Any game that has the ‘Shake it Up Baby’ sticker on the front will have an option to turn all normal controls off, and instead allow the player to control the game by shaking the Wii remote as fast as possible. Current compatible games include:

  • The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess (updated via patch)
  • de Blob
  • Sukoku Master
  • Tetris 200 Wii Super Splash Original New! New! New!
  • Mad World
  • Carnival Games 2: Hand Precision Challenges

      Lol. Nintendo can’t patch Twilight Princess. The console isn’t good enough to do that!

      You forgot about the project’s flagship title: Playboy Inside the Mansion 2
