Mention of both sequels was discovered on one of Microsoft's press sites, where someone accidently uploaded all of the categories for this week's MGD08 announcements including categories for Viva Piñata: Trouble in Paradise and Scene It? 2. And being the good reporters that we are, we went out and confirmed that both of these two unannounced titles are in fact listed on Microsoft's press site, though all game media has since been pulled. But not before the crew over at NeoGAF grabbed screenshot love from the Viva Piñata: Trouble in Paradise folder. So, not only do we get leaked word that Viva Piñata and Scene It? sequels are headed our way, but we also get a first look at Trouble in Paradise! Enjoy the screens!

Yeah its great news. Most of us who played VP loved it. Maybe you should give it a try, or are you just too hardcore for that.

Never meant to imply that... I just never realized it had gotten such a good reception to have a sequel be quite exciting.

I sure hope that they include a lot of different game modes in Viva 2 ...
One of the pictures really make me think about co-op play... ( red circle over a shovel and other "grey" circle over a water bocket )
cant wait to see MS show us all the things that they didn't annouce before.

Scene It 2?.....Great news......I've played the first one to death......Hopefully it'll be released in two forms, a pack with the controllers again, and a standalone game. Don't want to have to buy the controllers a second time.

discoghost, I couldn't agree more, I bought the first under the assumption DLC would be a regular feature...

Actually just looked at the screenshots and its clear its a sequel to the original. Why are there 2 cursors in the screenshots? True coop gardening? Bizarre! Also what's up with the graveyard, Pinatas can't die... can they :'(

Hell yeah, im 23 years old and can lie when i comes to viva pinata. I think the first one was a hit, just not marketed right.

God, can't wait for VP2. There's at least three new pinatas shown here, some sort of multiplayer component, seemingly a better use of the bad guys (Prof. Pester, for example) and even additional weather effects.
I hope it's not super far off.

I'm hoping the VP sequel has an easier interface and less busy work. I played it briefly, enjoyed it but never played it again.

I hope in VP2 that the garden size is much much larger. I found I ran out of room in the first VP.
