The only Wii or DS game hitting retailers this week will drain your wallet: Wii Fit goes on sale across North America starting this week. For those of you in Europe who already have it and still have money (can I have some?), you can try out THQ’s Battle of the Bands for Wii. It’s like Guitar Hero without the guitar!

Over in Japan, you’re actually getting the real Guitar Hero III this week, along with the usual smörgåsbord of DS games to choose from. As usual, the full release list for this week can be found after the break.

    Is Guitar Hero III dubbed in Japanese? These are the things that haunt me.

    So Wii Fit called a girl overweight eh?

    It said I was in the “Normal” range. BOO YAH!

    For a 6′5″ guy, I’m actually nearly underweight.

    But this girl shouldn’t really take it too seriously, because I’m not sure that Wii Fit can differentiate between fat and muscle mass, and the latter weighs more. Maybe she is just crazy strong!
