Muscle Men, Polar Bears, And Motion Control

Namco Bandai has an utterly bizarre WiiWare game with macho men bulldozing into buildings called Muscle Koushinkyoku (Muscle March). A thief, shown in the trailer as a football player, stole their protein and muscle men are chasing after him. The story doesn’t explain how a polar bear wearing a Speedo joined the team.

Players make bodybuilding poses with the remote and nunchuk to smash through walls and shake the controllers to dash. Catch the thief and you win until an alien sitting on a mini-UFO whizzes by and steals the protein prompting players to go to the next stage. Muscle March is 800 Wii Points ($8), supports 1-4 players, and comes out in Japan on May 26.
