Elebits = Eledees

by Tim

At least in Europe

I woke up this morning and checked my daily digest of gaming press releases and came across one about developer Konami’s first venture into Wii gaming with a title called “Eledees”. Now at first I was confused by this because as far as I knew Konami’s first Wii game was the kitschy yet fun, little critter hunting game “Elebits” which came out shortly after the console’s launch.

So I was thinking that either I was wrong or that Konami had snuck something under my radar. Once I got past my ego and investigated further I found that “Eledees� is just the European name for “Elebits�. Too bad I kind of had my hope up for some new Wii action.

Switching gears now I also came across a post on Kotaku for all you old school gamers. It’s about UK gaming website MeanMachines and their Virtual Console Archive. It is very detailed they tell you everything from when the game was released to where it’s available. (Either the US or UK) The most useful part I found was where the site tells you which controller you will need to play a given game.

I also learned that those lucky chaps in the UK have access to the Virtual Console version of the Rare developed classic “Donkey Kong Country� Jokes on them though we have “Street Fighter II: The World Warrior� take that you Kong stealing Brits.

Check out the Virtual Console Archive for yourself.
