New Games Coming To The US From Nintendo

Nintendo of America announced today three new games that will be headed to US shores.  One new Wii game and two DS game compose the list of new entries:

Wii

Excitebots: Trick Racing has elements that make it one of the more unique racing games on the market. It launches April 20 and lets everyone in the family use the Wii Wheel accessory in unique and changing environments, play fun minigames and perform crazy tricks in a game that builds on the Excitebike and Excite Truck franchises.

DS

In The Legendary Starfy game, which launches June 8, players dive into a spectacular undersea adventure with Starfy, the legendary hero of Pufftop. Players swoop into enemies like a shooting star, glide over bottomless chasms and transform into powerful creatures to help a mysterious, bunny-eared visitor find his lost memory.

Personal Trainer: Walking tracks users’ progress and makes going for a walk a little more fun. It comes with two pedometers that users can wirelessly connect to their Nintendo DS system when they return home.

As of this post there were no assets released to the media.

Wow I was wondering if they’d ever get around to bringing Starfy out here. I’m worried about this Excite entry to the franchise though because of the word minigame in the press release.
