Build a Bear Wii edition

The Build-a-Bear workshop is coming to the Wii. First you had to build your bear at a local store. Then came along the DS game that allowed you to build your own virtual stuffed animal. Now Wii owners can have their chance to build a bear, too.

Since 1997, Over 6 million furry friends have been made in over 370 Build-a-Bear Workshops around the world. The DS game, that launched in November 2007, has sold over 180,000 units.

Build-a-Bear Workshop A Friend Fur All Seasons will be available sometime in this fall.

    I might rent this game. I played the DS one, but found it kind of lacking in game depth even for a kids game. Plus, the most fun part of making your bear was not all that customizable as kids who have been to Build-a-Bear expect to get all the options in the game.
