 When it comes to the Wii, Capcom has been one of the major contributors, both in porting their classics like Okami and Resident Evil 4, as well as experimenting with different genre's to see what works.
One genre that has seemed to work spectacularly for them has been the on-rails shooter. As a follow up to their previous installment: RE: Umbrella Chronicles, Darkside Chronicles continues with similiar gameplay while at the same time expanding on the first title's immersion, scope, and depth.
Read the reviews below to see what game reviewers across the 'net thought about it:

 Up until the release of the revolutionary Skate series from EA, the Tony Hawk series was the undisputed king of skateboard games with nothing to prove.
Unfortunately, the immersion and realism exhibited by Skate changed that for many of us, and Activision decided that they needed to take TH in a new direction in order to be competitive.
That direction came in the form of this generation's "big thing": motion controls. The entire game is played atop a plastic skateboard laden with sensors in a move that Activision hopes will trump Skate's realism.
Have they succeeded? If the reviews below are any indication, sadly no.

Nintendo must be counting on folks gifting a lot of digital software this Christmas, because they are piling on their shop content like crazy. We can only hope this will continue this strongly into the new year.
