Tecmo and Koei have officially dipped their chips together Er, that is, they got busy. No, I mean they did the two become one thing. Uh, they merged. I'm no good with analogies.

They are now officially known as Koei Tecmo Holdings. Too bad. I wanted them to take up a new name, like Kokomo or something... Ok, guess I'm bad with names too.

A study says that playing sexy video game characters can make gamers (both guys and gals) feel insecure about their body-image. I assume this is the same brain fart that Shigeru Miyamoto got to inspire him to make the Wii.

If you had a fun with Wii Sports and Wii Play and want some more video games similar to those, then you might want to check out Deca Sporta. This title is being developed by Hudson Soft and will be available in Japan later this year.

There is still no word, unfortunately, if it will come to other markets. Anyway, Deca Sporta is quite different from the above mentioned video game titles. How? While all of them feature different sports, the one from Hudson Soft offers team play games like basketball, volleyball, and even soccer.

The screenshots that you can see herein will give you an idea about the title's graphics. Aside from the already mentioned, Deca Sporta is also home to other individual sports like archery and racing. As always, updates as we get them and enjoy the screenshots!

Following in the successful footsteps of Wii Play and Wii Sports, Hudson Soft-developed Deca Sporta is ready to show the world what it can do with a Wiimote as it opens its website with some pretty good looking screenshots of the game.

The site features the different types of sports games Deca Sporta has to offer. Diverging a bit from its Wii-titled counterparts, Deca Sporta seems to offer wider range of sports to choose from. These include team play games such as basketball, beach volleyball, and soccer.

Competitive head-to-head games like badminton, cart racing, and super cross bike racing are also being offered. It will definitely be interesting to try out the archery competition using the unique controls the Wii has to offer.

While the graphics still seem a bit basic, if a little improved, the charm of the game makes it just as addicting to play as Wii Sports or Wii Play. So until a commercial release for the game arrives, let's keep ourselves in shape so we don't sprain ourselves playing this game.
