While the Wii is often reviled and criticized for so many of its games being simple mini-game compilations designed to make a profit at the lowest possible cost, for once there’s one coming out that seems to go beyond the recreation of party/sporting/arcade games. Vir2L Studios, a ZeniMax Media company has announced a new compilation of mini-games that promises to at least provide some stylish flair if not necessarily innovative gameplay.

The title is Medieval Games and you and up to three friends will be able to compete in a variety of medieval games, including jousting, castle storming and archery. You’ll have the choice of different characters including wizards, princesses, bards and knights to play as, although this is just the first announcement so there’s no details on if those are all the characters or if your character will affect your performance in mini-games. N- Fusion Interactive is developing the game, although at this early stage no release date has been announced yet.
