If you were wondering why we’d not yet seen sight nor light of the excellent Art Style WiiWare titles in Europe yet, now you have your answer: Nintendo of Europe was setting up a dedicated minisite to promote Skip’s superb downloadable series. Click here to have a gander.

After some disastrous delays during GameCube’s life, NoE’s stock has certainly risen for me in recent times. Europe got Wii Fit and Mario Kart before the US and Disaster: Day of Crisis is increasingly looking like it won’t ever reach our American brethren. While it’s a shame people have had to wait for the Art Style titles the fact that NoE has gone to the effort of promoting awareness of the games shows it has faith in the series.

Indeed, an interview with Nintendo’s Kensuke Tanabe suggests that “the more requests we have for new Art Style games, the sooner those games will become a reality.” Good news - get emailing, readers. For extra impact, put the subject matter down as “Art Style COLORIS please, Nintendo”. If not for yourself, then do it for me.

First game of the three is newcomer CUBELLO, which will hit WiiWare on 21st November for 600 points, with ROTOHEX and ORBIENT to follow at a later time. I’m expecting one every two weeks, which would be the ideal way to drip-feed the games, really.
