Brunswick Pro Bowling In The Works For Wii
Hallelujah! Crave is going to answer all of our Wii Sports: Bowling prayers! According to their press release, Crave is currently working on Brunswick Pro Bowling, a pure bowling title for the Nintendo Wii.
Brunswick Pro Bowling will give players a detailed, realistic bowling-center experience, complete with authentic sights and sounds, and official Brunswick bowling gear. Brunswick Pro Bowling will be highly customizable, allowing players to choose everything from their character’s appearance and accessories to ball styles.
We all know how successful Wii Sports is thanks to Wii Sports: Bowling, so if Crave plays their cards right, this could be a huge seller when it comes out. Unfortunately, no release date was revealed, but know that I’ll be keeping an eye on this game.

I am looking foward to a more relistic bowling game for the Wii. After throwing back 2 back 300 games in Wii Sports Bowling I lost interest as it was way to easy with no changes in lane conditions and such. And also would at least an online leaderboard be way to much to ask for !?!

I’ll stick with Wii Sports Bowling.

Whenever I see a game like this I wonder if there’s actually anyone that gets addicted to playing it by themself… Wii Sports / Play are so horrible 1P, but I’m sure someone, somewhere out there… is enjoying themselves with it alone o.O
