First screens of actual Wii version of Baroque


When Baroque was announced for localization, Atlus released a trailer ... of the PS2 version. It wasn't really a big deal that we didn't see the Wii version, since the game is definitely a PS2 port, and the simultaneous PS2/Wii release in the U.S. ruled out any major changes. But it's still nice to have some indication other than Atlus's word that a Wii version exists.

These screens are definitely Wii. For one thing, they're widescreen (good news: another Wii game will actually support widescreen). In addition, the shoulder-button-based interface has been replaced by plus and minus buttons in the HUD. The game will have the option of a Wiimote/Nunchuk control scheme or a more PS2-like Classic Controller scheme.

Providing further reassurance, the new Baroque Wii site is live, providing pretty much the same content as the PS2 site.

In other news, look at that creepy bastard.
