Namco Bandai serving The Munchables on Wii

Do you dare sit by while the home planet of the Munchables is invaded by Don Onion and his space pirates? NEVER! Join the fight against the evil Onion in Namco Bandai's The Munchables, a new Wii game coming to North America this May.

The Munchables' story and gameplay are both gluttony-based. As a Munchable, players must defeat the space pirates -- such deliciously wicked creatures as the Eggplanter and the Space Shroom -- by devouring them. As they eat, the Munchables grow. It's clearly a kid-friendly game, but the graphics are fairly impressive (if overly colorful) and the eating-based combat (which is vaguely reminiscent of Prey the Stars) sounds entertaining, at the very least. Besides, Don Onion! Eggplanter! The quirkiness is compelling. And we're total suckers for games with onion characters.
