AtomGo online with Samba de Amigo Wii
Impressions on Gearbox’s version of Samba de Amigo are rolling in and it sounds like… well Samba de Amigo on the Dreamcast minus maracas. Sega still has time to make a maraca shell, which I would gladly pay an extra $5 or so for.
New features? Does Nintendo Wi-Fi support count? The box art shows the Nintendo Wi-Fi logo, but Sega has not outline how it will be used. Downloadable songs are a possibility. Samba de Amigo Ver. 2000 included this feature and the Wii certainly has more storage space than one Dreamcast VMU.
Online play is another although possibility, but I can’t imagine it being as entertaining as playing Mario Kart online. Samba de Amigo is fun with others because it’s goofy. The group laughs are lost when you aren’t playing Samba de Amigo with people in the same room.

First of all the game has new songs, levels and modes so I don’t know why you are acting like it doesn’t.
Secondly, the only reason Sega ever implemented the Maraca peripheral was because there was nothing that could emulate it at the time. Now there is the Wiimote and there is no need for a Maraca, but if you guys still can’t get over it put some rice in a ball and tape it to your Wiimote.

@mg - I never said that Samba de Amigo didn’t have new songs or modes anywhere in this. I think you’re reading into this too much. I’m actually a excited to see a sequel and was merely pointing out there is an online component that hasn’t be discussed. Also I would be happy with a maraca shell. That’s it. :)
