Rumour Mill: Space Channel 5 or Samba De Amigo Wii bound?

According to RumorReporter, yet another classic Sega title could be coming to the Nintendo Wii.

Unfortunately the site doesn’t specify Space Channel 5 or Samaba De Amigo, but I think it’s a strong possibilty it’s one of the two.

Lots of things have been confirmed as of late. More recently, my mentioning of 20GB PS3s no longer being sold. But come this Friday, I’ve got intriguing news on a couple SEGA-related developments… for Wii. Think NiGHTS was the only retro-game by SEGA coming back to life? Think again. Come Friday and find out what could be one of the biggest no-brainers in retuning franchises to Wii.  

Let’s just say that DK: Bongo Blast probably won’t be the only Wii game you’ll be shaking beats to this year.

So we know that it’s a ‘retro’ title making a comeback, and we know that it’s some sort of rhythm game- like Donkey Konga/Bongo Blast.  What are two of Segas most popular rhythm games? -Space Channel 5 and Samaba De Amigo of course!

I’m leaning more towards it being Samba De Amigo myself, but Space Channel 5 is a strong possibilty too.  Although FlamewarAdvance, has some other theories;

As for this returning franchise … well, I’m stumped frankly. If it weren’t for the “shaking beats” bit, I’d put some solid cash down on either Panzer Dragoon or Toe Jam and Earl. Also, Bruce says it’s a “retro” franchise, but then again, he also refers to NiGHTS as retro. What do you guys think?

Personally I doubt it’s either of those two games. However, Toe Jam and Earl certainly fits the ‘beats’ idea of the rumour.  But the rest of you Sega Nerds may have a different idea, if so please put your suggestions forward.
