January 29, 2008 - Hudson Entertainment, the North American publishing arm of Hudson Soft, today announced Bomberman Land for the Wii and the PSP (PlayStationPortable) system, and Bomberman Land Touch! 2 for the Nintendo DS are now available at retail. Published by Hudson and distributed in North America by Konami Digital Entertainment Inc., all three versions are now available for a suggested retail price of $29.99 each.
"With the plethora of mini-game collections on the Wii, I do look forward to experiencing collections that really stand out from the pack. Is Bomberman Land Wii one such game? Not in a million years. Although it's developed by the proclaimed mini-game experts at Hudson Soft, I wouldn't suggest you purchase this game unless you're young in years." -- Wiiloveit.com
All you really need to know about Bomberman Land on the Wii is that it's great fun in multiplayer and not worth playing alone. Its simple gameplay fits perfectly in the Wii's targeted audience of casual and novice gamers, and experienced players can rarely refuse a game if offered. With a much cheaper, multiplayer Bomberman available on the Virtual Console, though, it's hard to recommend Bomberman Land.
