Earlier this month, we brought you word that the world of competitive eating would be coming to a console near you. We joked that the Wii would be the ideal console for such a series of games, and as it turns out Major League Eating agreed.

Mastiff Software will be launching a professional eating game on the WiiWare service when it launches on May 12th.

God help us, this means we have to get a Wii.
