WiiWare: Wii Tetris Renamed, Blue Oasis given a Japanese Date

fish.jpgAccording to the Japanese Hudson website, the previously titled "Wii Tetris" for Wii Ware will now be called Tetris Party. It also appears to have been pushed back to a "Summer" release date - perhaps to add the Balance Board support idea they were throwing around.

On the other hand, Blue Oasis - the self proclaimed "Relaxation" title in which you decorate an aquarium and feed fish, will be coming out at the end of June in Japan, on the 24th.

Oddly enough... the bizarre Tetris Splash on Xbox Live Arcade attempted to mix both of these genres together. Go figure.

A new preview video of Blue Oasis has also been released - continue reading to view it.
