New Play Control!
New Play Control! (Japanese Wii de Asobu, lit. "Play on Wii" or "Enjoy with Wii") is a series of Nintendo GameCube games ported to the Wii using the motion controls of the Wii Remote and sometimes the Nunchuk. The game may also have graphical enhancements or changes such as the support of widescreen. New Play Control! is also known as NPC. All the titles have reversable cases. The reversed cased looks like the original game covers. As of 2009, seven games were remade in Japan, six in Europe and Australia, and five in North America. The Japan-only game is Chibi-Robo, and the other game that North America has not gotten is Pikmin 2. Metroid Prime and its sequel, while not labeled as Wii Play Control, are included together with Metroid Prime 3: Corruption in the Metroid Prime Trilogy compilation.
The most recent release is the Australian release of Metroid Prime and its sequel in October of 2009. No plans to continue the series have been announced since.
A recent issue of Nintendo Power has confirmed that North America will receive Pikmin 2 on June 2012.
