Sunsoft to Distribute Digital Manga on WiiWare

This is turning out to be an awesome day for WiiWare news. Sunsoft has announced that they are developing a digital comic viewer for the Wii. This platform will allow gamers to buy manga directly from the WiiWare service.

The company has also announced a digital publishing outlet, Sunsoft Books, to distribute original content to the platform. The first series to launch will be a new title from Leiji Matsumoto, creator of such awesome series as Galaxy Express 999 and Captain Harlock.

The comic viewer and digital delivery service will launch this summer. No word yet on pricing or if we’ll see this outside of Japan.
