News: Blazing Angels Not Online

Rumour finally laid to rest.
There have been a few conflicting pieces of news floating about the glorious internet the past few weeks. Rumours that Nintendo will not be allowing third parties to create online titles for the Wii also coincided with another rumour that Blazing Angels would feature a 16 player online multiplayer mode.
However, Wii-UK has finally laid that rumour to rest.
Ubisoft have confirmed that Blazing Angels on Wii will not feature online multiplayer.
Our contact at Ubisoft has confirmed that the Wii incarnation of Blazing Angels, due out at the end of March, will not feature online multiplayer in any form whatsoever.
As far as is currently known, the first Wii game to feature a 'proper' online mode will be the upcoming Pokémon game from Nintendo.
The confusion originally arose when boxarts of this game were posted, featuring the Nintendo WiFi Connection logo in the corner. Certain descriptions of the game, also set for a release on another systems were also copied and pasted for the Wii description, which led to an inaccuracy.
