Meat Boy too meaty for Wii

Too much meat for Nintendo's console

I'm too big!

Super Meat Boy is a wonderful, but incredibly hard, platformer so far only available on Xbox Live Arcade. The game is also supposed to be released on Wiiware, but the developer Team Meat is having some problems with that version since Nintendo won't allow games to be bigger than 40 MB. The XBLA-version happens to be 80.

"Attention internets, the wii version is NOT coming out in Nov its impossible. we havent even gotten the size down under 50mb yet (goal=39mb)," the developer writes on Twitter, adding that we "should have official updates in a few weeks".

The PC-version is still up for release this month, if you have more than 80 MB free on your hard drive.
