GoldenEye will make a killing

Move over Mario – James Bond is going to be the top dog on Wii this year.

Activision claims the new GoldenEye will rival hits like Mario Galaxy 2, Just Dance 2, Wii Party, Donkey Kong and Epic Mickey.

Our expectations are that GoldenEye 007 will be one of the best-selling games for the year on the Wii,” said David Tyler, general manager for the firm’s Licensed Business Unit.

GoldenEye 007 is a re-imagining of the film and the classic N64 game, which includes new sections, modes and gameplay. It will be available as a standalone game or bundled with a gold Classic Controller Pro on Wii.

Actor Daniel Craig has lent his likeness to the game, which mark Bond’s return to video games.
