Apparently, the masses have spoken: A dozen waggle-and-yank fishing games available for Wii is not enough. Teaming with outdoor sports icon Rapala for the umpteenth time, third time for Wii specifically, Activision delivered "We Fish" for Wii on Sept. 29 (for $39.99, according to Amazon).

The new title comes bundled with a snap-in rod and reel peripheral to accommodate Wii Remote Controller (Wii-mote) and a sidearm winder for a Nunchuck attachment.

The custom peripheral appears identical to the plastic contraption bundled in with "Rapala Fishing Frenzy," published by Activision just one year ago, itself a follow-up for the "Rapala Tournament Fishing," published by Activision a couple of years before that.

"We Fish" plays fast and loose with the sport of sitting in a boat for hours on end by featuring a "comical approach" to fishing with five different game modes, co-op tournaments, four player splitscreen and multiplayer modes, eight locations, Mii integration, and 50 "wacky" fish species.

"We've partnered with Rapala to develop a new type of fishing game that focuses on arcade style family fun for the Wii," said David Oxford, Activision Publishing, seemingly oblivious to the 10 other family fun fishing games readily available for Wii in the "2 for $10" bargain bins. "Combining responsive controls with an action-packed, humorous direction, we have created a fishing game that's unlike anything out there."
