Protöthea is a shoot 'em up video game developed by Argentinian[3] studio Digital Builders originally released for Windows PCs in 2005.

A redesigned version for WiiWare was released in North America on June 2, 2008 [4] and in Europe on October 23, 2009.

[6] Players are tasked with destroying an asteroid, Maqno 01, and eliminate an enemy faction named The Core who wish to mine it and others like it in order to build an army of war machines.

Control has also been designed to take advantage of the Wii Remote, with the pointer function used to aim the targeting cursor, and the Nunchuck used to move the player's ship.

They were also disappointed by the lack of polish in the presentation, and felt that Ubisoft's decision to bring the game to WiiWare in the first place was "random".
