confirmed that the title will support both online play and the Wii's Mii characters. This flies in the face of comments made earlier in the week by one of EA's producers Eric Chartrand, who claimed that Nintendo hadn't supplied any third-party developers with the tools to include Miis in their games. It seems, however, that Sega has the tools and is already hard at work on the game. You can check out images on the game's page on Sega's website to see the Mii integration at work.
Don't get too excited about the title - it's a simple Pachinko (Japanese poker machines) game based on the Hokuto no Ken anime, known here as Fist of the North Star. While the game itself may not set the world alight, as the next Mii-enabled game it at least shows that Nintendo has opened the floodgates for online features (beyond the WiiConnect24 functions of Elebits/Eledees) and Mii integration.
