LIGHT COMMAND: BIT.TRIP CORE COMING TO WIIWARE JULY 6TH

The best bit of this latest Bit.Trip Core video? How completely innocently its gentle blips belie the searing block-tracer madness happening on screen — I’ve already essentially relented to the fact that this is going to be an even harder challenge than Beat, which really is saying a lot.

The Gaijin team recently sent out this encoded message regarding its release date, which, like a fool, I spent a good amount of pre-sleep time trying to mentally work out, before waking up to realize it’s a simple 7 (July)/6 (th)/(of 200)9, but also conveying that they reckon that’ll make it officially the 100th WiiWare game to hit Nintendo’s service.

And, more sadly, they’ve also just sent out this formal goodbye in light of yesterday’s events, proving that MJ touched even the virtual Commander Video, but presumably via Virt’s 8-bit Thriller.
