If you like rhythm games which have about twelve songs with ‘mambo’ in the title, then chances are you’re probably looking forward to Sega’s Wii remake of its DreamCast classic Samba de Amigo. Recent previews have suggested that the controls DO indeed work, and now it looks like it’s going to be even more faithful to the original with the release of these maraca shells from Amazon.com.

Here’s hoping there’s another set of shells for those wanting to play with two remotes, as that’s almost certainly likely to provide a more authentic Samba experience. And you’ve no chance of accidentally whacking yourself in the nose with the nunchuk wire when you strike a pose, too.
