Codemasters and developer Climax Studios threw around a few ideas about what to do with a Wii version of Overlord, most of them overly simplified, but they settled on making what they call a Zelda-style adventure game. However, unlike Zelda, Overlord: Dark Legend is a level-based game with real-time strategy elements. Dark Legend’s level system is all done behinds the scenes, meaning that the more you attack with your sword the stronger you'll become.
The controls are divided between controlling the Overlord, and controlling his minions. The Wii Remote controls the minions while the Nunchuk controls the Overlord. The minions are the same four types used in the first game (brown, red, blue, and green), but they will have added abilities in the Wii version.
Overlord: Dark Legend should hit stores this summer.
This wasn't on my radar at all, but the idea of a Zelda/Pikmin game excites me. I might check out the first one if the price is right.

Amazon has it for 19.99 I'm waiting for the PS3 version to fall to that price since it has the expansion on the disc already (costs about 15 on XBL) and it also has local multiplayer I think.
The problem with digital delivery on the expansion pack is that it never falls in price. In fact, that's the problem with digital delivery in general.
