Are you one of the many that refused to believe this morning's news that JV Games is bringing a Beer Pong game to the Wii? My friend, you may want to watch this trailer.

"While Nintendo hasn't finalized the price yet, it's going to be around 9 bucks," the studio wrote on the game's official site "That's the price of a couple of those girly coffees."

The first in the Frat Party Games series, Beer Pong is expected to be downloadable via WiiWare this June.

This does look pretty amazing, but I think I'm going to pass until I can buy the 3-pack with Wii Quarters and Wii FlipCup.

They really didn't need a trailer for this. It's not difficult to envision, and actually displaying how shallow and pointless it is can really only hurt them.

I bet that this will fail epically. Half the fun of beer pong is the physicality of it, and I doubt a Wiimote can actually recreate the reality of tossing a ping pong ball into cups of beer. It's just too subtle.

It's just too easy to say, "Dude - why not just play the real thing?" to this game.

People who play beer pong would likely avoid this game, for fear it would mess with their delicate touch when playing the real thing.

I almost misspelled it as "bear pong", and now I realize that "bear pong", whatever it is, is probably the greatest game never to exist.

Why is there no option on Fileshack to leave a comment about the files?
DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT!

I'm sure we all would love to chat about a certain game demo or patch or trailer,
not JUST about news.

And also, why didnt Fileshack point out that 3DVantage trial edition lets users run it ONCE only?!

So I download a 500 mb program and I can only run it once? What a freaking joke!
GRR.
And I'm not trolling or trying to cause trouble, I am genuinely annoyed and disappointed.
