Muscle March: Possibly the Most Bizarre Wii Game Yet!

The Japanese a traditionally known for their wacky antics – from air sex to ‘tard wrestling to penis-worshipping festivals, they just excel at any and all weird shit. This character trait also seeps into gaming and Namco’s Muscle March (or Muscle Koushinkyoku in Japanese) might just be the most bizarre Wii game yet seen.

The trailer’s in Japanese and from what I make out, some massively roided-up dudes are running around levels chasing an NFL footballer who has stolen their “supplements”. With their thongs firmly lodged between rock-hard butt cheeks, these bodybuilders stop occasionally for what look like weight-lifting poses. To top it off, the only woman in the game looks like a man who wears bikinis for a living, and there’s a polar bear in diapers. Yes, you read right – a polar bear. In diapers.

Check out the trailer below.

I don’t know if apprehensive anticipation describes what I’m feeling right now but I’m strangely drawn to this game. Muscle March releases as a WiiWare title in Japan on May 26th.

Meat Boy Brings Retro Goodness, Hitler Gets a Mention Too

From Jonathan Mcentee and Edmund McMillen comes an old-school platformer with loads of meaty goodness. In Meat Boy, you and the girlfriend Band-Aid Girl are having a good time when she gets kidnapped by some blob-type thing. You need to get her back but in your way stands a series of dastardly jumping puzzles. With blocky graphics, a catchy soundtrack, and ever challenging (yet addictive) puzzles, it makes for some great retro fun.

Play Meat Boy at Newgrounds.

The cute little fleshbag will be making a transition to the Nintendo Wii as a WiiWare title; Super Meat Boy is slated for release later this year. They seem to have got the ball rolling with some potentially offensive advertising that takes a dig at vegetarians and Hitler in the same breath.

The dubious text has since been edited out on the game developer’s blog. Keep updated with the game’s progress at Super Meat Boy.
