“Eidos is proud to bring the console debut of the Death Jr. series to Wii, with a new simple control scheme, intuitive aiming system, and polished graphics that enhance the game’s action platform experience,” said Robert A. Lindsey, executive vice president of sales and marketing, Eidos. “Death Jr.’s vibrant stylized art and quirky intelligent characters, combined with the new split-screen cooperative mode, makes Death Jr.: Root of Evil appealing to a wide-reaching audience that has embraced Wii.”
“This is really the ‘Special Edition’ (of the PSP version). The ability to use the Wii Remote and Nunchuk to not only have precise aiming and control of the camera, but to easily switch back and forth between melee and ranged combat mode is ideal,” - Backbone producer James Stanley
Here are first details from IGN:
In Root of Evil, players become the Grim Reaper’s son and his school sweetheart Pandora as they embark on a quest to save Jr.’s kidnapped father. The title comes to life with colorful, stylized visuals and all-new Wii controls. Using the Wii remote and nunchuk, gamers can perform dual-weapon attacks of both the melee and projectile variety, and dispose of some 45 different enemies. Using the Wii remote, gamers can accurately target baddies, but the device is also used intuitively to control the camera. The game will feature 19 levels and a two-player cooperative mode.
