Today marks the debut of Nintendo’s demo test program, which they hope will help boost sales of WiiWare games. The first batch of demos is actually a pretty good line-up of games: World of Goo, NyxQuest: Kindred Spirits, Bit. Trip Beat, Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life as a Darklord and Pokémon Rumble.

 

Strange that they’d put World of Goo up there but omit LostWinds; both games seem to enjoy a similar level of popularity on WiiWare. Replacing Pokémon with a Monkey Island demo would have been nice, too.
