Sega just blew the doors off its full 40-song list of rhythm n' music tracks for
Samba de Amigo. A hefty portion are performed by a cover band, but some new original recordings come through, like War's "Low Rider," Dee Lite's "Groove Is In The Heart," and Rihanna's "Pon de Replay." Some original recordings also return from the Dreamcast's
Samba de Amigo (2000): "Take On Me" via Reel Big Fish, "Volare," by the Gypsy Kings, and the titular "Samba de Amigo" from Bellini. September 23rd is the latest
Samba de Amigo's release date, and it'll be the first Wii title to offer downloadable content. The first downloadable pack (available on the game's launch day) will feature: "Mambo Mambo" by Lou Bega, "I Want Candy" by Bow Wow Wow, and "Are You Going To Be My Girl" by Jet (?!). Download pricing not announced yet.
These new sugar-high screens are in from Leipzig's GamesCon 2008.
