I wonder how it will control. I hope they don't use the pointing capabilities of the remote to click and drag in a similar fashion to the DS version. That seems like too much work to me. If I were making the game, I would simply have players hold the remote vertically to fire straight up, and tilt it left and right to achieve the angled shots. That would be the most intuitive version of the game yet.

All I know is, I'm not paying $50 bucks for this.

This could actually be kind of cool.
I would love to see the game with an angled 3D view, cell-shaded graphics, Wii-mote controlled launcher, and 4P support with online play. And of course a budget title price of no more than $30.
