Arcade Games for the Wii

Alien Syndrome

• "Alien Syndrome" is an action shooter game from Sega in which the player, from a bird's-eye perspective, takes on wave after wave of attacking alien creatures in the dark cooridors of the Seti-Alpha 5 space colony.

Blast Works

• In "Blast Works," the player must build, Lego-style, a fighter jet from the leftover parts of his destroyed enemies. The game is played as a side-scrolling shooter similar to the classic arcade and Nintendo game "R-Type." There are 15 missions, and up to four players can play together at the same time to defeat the missions. Ship designs and customized levels can be traded online.

Dance Dance Revolution: Hottest Party

• The hit arcade dancing game is back. "Dance Dance Revolution: Hottest Party" includes 50 songs that players dance to by stepping on colored arrows on a plastic dance pad, which comes with the game. In addition, in the new Wii version, you must shake the nunchuk controller like a maraca at points in the song.

Heatseeker

Nitrobike

• "Nitrobike" is the successor to the Nintendo game "Excitebike." Players race their rocket-powered motorcycles across 20 different levels trying to avoid obstacles and finish the track alive. Players can play alone or online with up to six people, and the career mode allows players to unlock new racers and motorcycles to use to smoke the competition. A side game inspired by bowling is included as a bonus. Players crash and throw their riders into a set of bowling pins, knocking down as many as possible.

Castle of Shikigami 3

• "Castle of Shikigami 3" is a science fiction shooter game in which the player selects one of 10 different aircraft and leads it on missions against impossible odds, using gameplay similar to the classic "Galaga."

In addition, players can receive bonus points for deliberately evading enemy attacks by the smallest possible margin.
