WWE ready to rumble on Wii, DS
THQ confirms plans to bring wrestling franchise to Nintendo's systems, reaffirms first PS3 installment in series is on the way.

Traditionally, THQ hasn't been shy about spreading its WWE-licensed games around to different platforms. The company has made games based on the professional wrestling company's in-ring offerings for the PlayStation 2, the N-Gage, and everything in between.

However, 2006 was a fairly light year for the company's WWE license because its only major offering was WWE SmackDown! vs. RAW 2007 for the PS2, PlayStation Portable, and Xbox 360. A PlayStation 3 version had been announced but was later canceled because THQ said the series would debut on Sony's next-generation system in late '07.

The PS3 isn't the only system looking forward to its first WWE game because THQ confirmed plans to step into the ring on the Wii and DS. In an investor conference call, the publisher said it would be releasing WWE products on Nintendo's latest systems sometime in its next fiscal year, which runs from April 2007 through March 2008.

There was no indication if the Nintendo games would fall under the SmackDown! vs. RAW banner, or if they would be separate series, as was done with WWE titles on the GameCube and Game Boy Advance.

cool WWE for wii.wonder what they will come up with to intergrate the wiis control systemin into the game what do you think?

You'll get to virtually spin Cena's Belt.

As funny as that was it was also quite depressing.

Hahaha, that's the only motion controlled part of the game too! The Wiis been a bit of a crapshot so far thanks to it's lethal remote. It's gonna be fun to see how hard it's gonna be to restrain yourself from getting a black eye when you gotta wrestle with that remote.

with your knunchuck for moving mixed with the 2 buttons on it, plus your additional d-pad a button and b button, it wont have to depend much on your movements imo, perhaps some sort of movement to go into the grapple would do it, be open minded here.

[Salazzle]

a: punch/kick
a+b: pick up weapons
nunchuck direction + a : grapple
nunchuck direction + a : exit/enter ring & climb
(while tied up) nunchuck direction + a : grapple move
(while tied up) nunchuck direction + b : whip
nunchuk : move
nunchuk + b : run

dont even need the motion sensors

[I Got Worms]

incase nobody knows, not for sure on this one
but Gamecube controllers are compatible on Wii's
so i've heard.

[Salazzle]

it is, but the gc controller is retarded for fighting games.

[I Got Worms]

i wouldn't consider wrestling a type of fighting i would consider MK, Tekken, Street Fighter, Virtua Fighter or KI fighting games.

[Aero]

if a game supports GC controlls, it will support Classic Controller too, it'd be easier to play on the CC
