It’s time to put that Veterinary College grad degree of yours once again to the test as you take on Majesco Entertainment‘s Wii spin-off to the popular Zoo Hospital originally released on the Nintendo DS. Developed by Torus Games, this veterinarian sim takes all the aspects of the handheld version and blows it up to mammoth proportions on the Wii console.

Zoo Hospital for the Wii allows players to take on even more ailing animals – dolphins, gorillas, macaws and more – as you treat their various sicknesses. Successful operations will eventually lead to more animals, enclosures, medical mini-games, and plaques as you slowly raise your Zoo Rating.

The game even supports multiplayer functions, which can allow up friends to treat animals together in co-op mode. Zoo Hospital is expected to be released by the fourth quarter of this year in Europe, so aspiring vets should definitely  keep their eyes out for this title.
