“Indiana Jones and the Staff of Kings” for the Wii – Trust Me…
Speaking of Wii games, the new Indiana Jones game looks quite adventurous. Sporting some neat motion controls and some puzzle play that looks like it might be similar to Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis, which was, of course, the greatest Indiana Jones game ever made.

Disney to Release “Toy Story Midway Mania” as Wii Game, No Need To Go To Disney Anymore
