Sonic Gets Some Action...



What's this? our favourite blue hedgehog being sandwiched between not one but two latin lovelies? yes folks, as the wonderful BJ pointed out in the comments section, Samba De Amigo is now out for the Wii.

The Dreamcast classic has been spruced up and repackaged for the Wii. Only except for shaking those lovely motion sensing maracas that came bundled with the original Dreamcast version, you'll be shaking a couple of Wii-motes instead. They've also squeezed in my favourite space reporter Ulala from that other Dreamcast classic Space Channel 5 and a few new tunes (such as 'Pon De Replay' by Rhianna and 'Low Rider' by War as well...

It's almost inevitable that I'll pick this up at some point, although I really don't need it. I've got the Dreamcast version and two sets of maracas. I've also got the PS2 incarnation which uses the eye toy. But you just know that this is going to be a riot with friends after a few beers so it'll be entering my Wii collection any day now. In the mean time it's just a great excuse to throw on a video featuring lot's of lovely Brazillian chicks wearing very little. he also makes and appearance in the game! Oh,and well done Sonic, maybe the good times are back for you, my little anphetamine fuelled spiky rodent buddy... Enjoy!
