Namco Bandai games announced Space Station Tycoon is going to release sometime in Summer 2007 on the Wii.  The game combines some unique gameplay mechanics with the Wii’s control system.  Here’s a snippet of the interview:

“Space Station Tycoon utilizes the creative and unique functionality of the Wii by allowing gamers to emerge themselves in a type of tycoon gameplay never before experienced,” said Makoto Iwai, executive vice president and COO of Namco Bandai Games. “Its fun-loving characters and off-the-wall space station scenarios should have Wii owners scrambling to get their stations thriving.”

Looks like an interesting endeavor…but I’m not sure how fun it will be even with the Wiimote controls.  Check out the screens to decide for yourselves.
