Home Design Game? Sign Me Up!

Finally, something to do when America's Next Top Model is over! Casual game developer Big Blue Bubble recently announced plans to bring their PC title Home Sweet Home to the burgeoning Nintendo WiiWare service. Known for such iconic titles as Mage Knight: Destiny's Soldier and Atomic Betty, it'd suffice to say we're not expecting Home Sweet Home to escape the baby-game market.

In fairness, as there was clearly a market for The Sims, Big Blue Bubble most likely believes they can win over the hearts (and wallets) of 10-15 year old girls everywhere (oh, and men with home design aspirations, natch.) The thrilling excerpt from their press release below should help to alleviate any fears that this game isn't straight up work:

"Home Sweet Home is a home design game where you will listen and learn about your clients' tastes, create fabulous designs for them, and then direct your build team to assemble it all in front of your eyes."

Oooh! I can hardly contain myself when I hear things like, "learn about your clients' tastes." All we know so far is that this game is coming out on WiiWare sometime in the future (though it's already been released for PC), as Big blue Bubble had a big fat, "No comment." for us when pressed for a release date. Consider our breath officially held.
