This week, Destineer ships Magellan Interactive's Word Jong Party for the Wii to retail. A follow up to the successful Word Jong on the Nintendo DS, Word Jong Party adds new multiplayer modes, power-ups that take advantage of the Wii motion controls, and updated visuals.
Destructoid loved Word Jong on the DS, its simple and addictive design came highly recommended when they ran their review for the game last year. So when they heard there was an updated version coming to the Wii, they hunted down the game's designer Scott Balaban to see what it was all about.
Balaban is a veteran of both the videogame and traditional toy industry, starting work with Hasbro and its interactive division in the late 90s. This is a guy who knows a thing or two about a thing or two when it comes to both the toy and the videogame industries.
