Awesome news. I hope it's another wii title. The wii needs more original games that aren't toys, eh?

Totally unexpected, but I'm not complaining! The first one was great.

Rock on, Grasshopper. Rock on.

It's not confirmed for Wii though... I want to know it's confirmed for Wii.

You're right, actually. I only hope it's for Wii, but now there's speculation that "Desperate Struggle" means... DS. I've updated our piece. This game had better be for Wii though. The motion controls are really what made the game, and although I loved the premise, the over-the-top violence and the characters, I don't think the original would've been as well-received if it appeared on any other platform.

I sold NMH about 2 weeks after buying it. Thought it was a bit cack (read repetitive). Steering the bike was terrible and really put me off.. suffice to say not bothered about the sequel...

Um yeah. First one was awesome. One of my faves out of all the new console games. Everyone with a Wii (that can buy an M-rated game, if we're being responsible here) must play the original.

I am shocked yet excited. I just got the first one and I like it!

Same here. The first one was great. Looking forward to another.

NMH 2 Wiimote should really correspond to your swing: aka if you swing from left to right, Travis should do the same. I don't want NMH 1's Button A whoring or Force Unleashed Wiimote shaking any more!
