It all started in Japan in 2006 when Nintendo released Rhythm Tengoku for the Gameboy Advance. A wholly unique, mini-game collection, the game sprang from the minds of Yoshio Sakamoto, one of the creators of the WarioWare series, and Tsunku, a Japanese record producer, songwriter and vocalist. Differentiating itself from other mini-game titles, Tengoku tested the player's sense of rhythm and reflexes as they worked their way through a series of kooky activities. The GBA title never saw release stateside, however, in 2009 Western gamers got a taste of the series when its sequel was released for the DS as Rhythm Heaven. Now, three years later, Nintendo is rounding out their Rhythm Heaven offerings by releasing Rhythm Heaven Fever for the Wii. With more than 50 new games to keep the beat to Fever holds true to the series, whether you like it or not.

Nintendo Wii's friend code approach to online multiplayer in games like Mario Kart has been a huge let down. It doesn't give us the ability to make a friends list or even see what games our friends are playing. Thankfully, it looks like Nintendo is finally catching up with Xbox LIVE and PSN, as Satoru Iwata confirmed the infrastructure is already in place for a new “Nintendo Network” during a recent investor presentation.
