Remember that wacky Wii game full of fun and muscles that popped up earlier this year? Well, my dreams have come true: it’s coming to the US’s WiiWare next year.
Here, have some English trailer:
Are you addicted to Toxel? I am. It posted about treehouses, and there are a couple of interesting ones in Okinawa. The Beach Rock Treehouse was designed by Takashi Kobayashi. What’s best is this is the thing in which we’ll likely make first contact! Kobayashi, a leading treehouse-maker, also made this: One speculates that because […]
