I hadn't heard of these before but I was looking at avg. prices on Ebay and saw these 2 things pop up as rumored for 2008. Anyone heard anything about this?


Wii Motor Sports Jet Ski

Description
A demo created as part of a planned Wii Motor Sports series of vehicular sporting experiences, Jet Ski would re-create the feeling of gliding across a wave-filled ocean expanse. The game (which unofficially carries on the tradition of the Wave Race series -- a full-fledged Wave Race for Wii may or may not still be in consideration) is expected to remain a fairly simple racing or Jet Skiing game rather than a more complex racer (as is the case with the rest of the Wii Sports/Wii Motor Sports franchise), instead concentrating on the feeling of cruising and splashing around in the waves.

Apart from the Wii Sports Airplane game, Nintendo has not yet announced how many games would be a part of the Wii Motor Sports final package. Might this series might be released online as part of the Nintendo Virtual Console? Please check back for official word.

Wii Motor Sports Airplane

DescriptionA demo created as part of a planned Wii Motor Sports series of vehicular sporting experiences, Airplane creates the sensation of flight over wide expanses of land. The game (which unofficially carries on the tradition of the Pilotwings series after the hoped-for GameCube version never arrived -- a full-fledged PilotWings for Wii may or may not still be in consideration) is expected to remain a fairly simple flight game rather than a more complex flight sim (as is the case with the rest of the Wii Sports/Wii Motor Sports franchise) to concentrate on the feeling of flying.


Nintendo has not yet announced how many games would be a part of the Wii Motor Sports final package (or if this Airplane game would be released all on its own.) Might this series might be released online as part of the Nintendo Virtual Console? Please check back for official word.

They were part of demos back at E3 06, I think... never officially announced as future titles, but it's likely that they'll be released along with Wii Music over time as follow-ups to Wii Sports.

Idle thought here. Do you think they'll eventually bundle different Wii ____ games with the console to offer a bit of variety? Like, a Wii Sports console, a Wii Fit console, a Wii Music console, etc. I assume, if they did, they'd want to release the other Wii Series games on their own, which would mean a stand-alone Wii Sports release eventually.

Not sure of my point here, just thinking out loud.
