Roll that blob...


The lucky people over at CVG have managed to get their hands on a copy of Ignition Entertainment's Mercury Meltdown Revolution, and of course, promptly took the much-desired screenshots.

In any case, from the glowing review that they have given to this title, it seems that porting Mercury Meltdown from the PSP to the Wii may have been one of the best things that ever happened to the game. One of the main positive points to all this is the controls. As opposed to the iffy, little PSP nub that you previously had to control the board and the blob with, using the Wiimote instead does that job perfectly as it gives the player perfect control.

However, unlike in similar games such as Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz where the Wiimote is held like a TV remote control, MMR will require the user to hold the Wiimote as if it were an NES controller. The use of both hands in the game thus allows the execution of delicate movements which should send that blob to the finish line.

Sigh. Now we can't wait for the game to finally come out this March...
