Wii fanboys may have another reason to celebrate as Nintendo has a new music-rhythm game called the Helix and helps you exercise with fervor. You could use the Wii Remoteâ„¢ controller and make a number of cool moves that you couldn’t earlier. The graphics are awesome and you can replay 26 songs and the game has 3 difficulty levels. The game helps you exercise better and you can challenge yourself to unlock all the songs. Now about the two console games that are offered along with Helix are pretty cool too. The Ys Book I & II is a mild fantasy violence game, which is about a swordsman’s quest to unlock the secrets of an ancient kingdom. The Samurai Showdown 2 has been rated T for teen and follows the 15 samurai from the previous version in their individual quests. It seems like the Wii fanboys will have a great time with this new offer.
