EA is taking their Wii Sports games in another direction, and it starts with NHL Slapshot, which will have the likeness of Wayne Gretzky on the cover.
There was not much more mentioned for NHL Slapshot, except that there will be a Hockey Stick Wii Remote/Nunchuck shell released with the game, and that it will not be simulation based, allowing players to work their way through the hockey ranks, starting at PeeWee.
NHL Slapshot is due in stores in September.
