Its a new engine for Wii, which makes it easier to develop games for Wii.

It's the engine that they use to make games for Mac, but it is now available to use on Wii.

This would have been REAL handy for porting over S&M season 1. I hope they use it for season 2.

Anybody else want a Marathon retro collection now?

Wait, but Apple doesn't have near as many games for its OS as windows. So how would this help?

Miyamoto used a Mac to show off the latest builds of Super Mario Galaxy at press events, all he had to do was download from Nintendo, Japan. Publishers might not sell games on Mac, but they sure as heck make games on Mac.

If you look on the gallery on the official Unity website nearly all of the games look like utter crap.

Easy. It's an engine to build games for the Wii that runs on Mac OS. You buy the engine, you build the game with the engine running on your Mac, you test it with your Wii Developer's Kit, get Nintendo's approval, make a bunch of copies and sell the game.

I assume it's the first Wii engine software that runs on a Mac and that's what the big deal is about.

The engine has nothing to do with Apple the engine only runs on a Mac it's not designed by Apple, the engine looks crap anyway.
