WiiWare: 'Gradius Rebirth' Announced for WiiWare!

Finally, some WiiWare announcements! Konami have announced that they're bringing a brand new Gradius game to WiiWare!

'Gradius Rebirth' will be coming in the Summer. Outside of that we don't know anything. No date, no price, nothing. We've got a single in-game screenshot though:

It looks just like a Super Nintendo game! It appears that 'Mega Man 9' is not the only game that is going the classic direction. Whether it's an entirely new game or a remake of the original game is currently unknown.

Wii gets this, XBLA gets Frogger 2 and Coffeetime Crosswords. Thanks Konami!
