GTTV to have debut trailer for a new game from a classic franchise
Posted on 14 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 4 Comments
Check out this blurb from Spike, which reveals the contents of the next GameTrailers TV…
“GTTV goes behind-the-scenes on Marvel’s next big comic book game, Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions! Not only do we uncover new details and footage for the game, but we also score an exclusive interview with Stan Lee to talk about the first Marvel MMO! That’s not all, because we debut the opening cinema for Greed Day Rock Band and premiere the first trailer for an upcoming game from a classic franchise you’ll have to see to believe!”
This is the only information that was provided, though Geoff Keighley may tease the game a bit next week. As always, we’ll let you know if this turns out to be Nintendo-related. Nintendo fans should probably tune in for next week’s episode regardless though, as Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions and Green Day: Rock Band will be featured.

Cuthbert on X-Scape, possibility of creating another Star Fox
Posted on 14 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in DS, General Nintendo, News | 4 Comments
First, Q-Games’ Dylan Cuthbert discussed X-Scape…
“X was a very special game for me. It was the first game I made for Nintendo. Star Fox is very much a Miyamoto group game. X’s themes are a little more adult, a little more science fiction based. It’s a bit of a self challenge, to go back to something you made 20 years ago and going through all the old ideas and trying to remake them with the experience I have now. As a challenge that was more fun for us than doing another Star Fox. It let’s us explore more themes because it’s not a major franchise title.”
Mr. Cuthbert was also asked about the possibility of creating another Star Fox title…
“We’re willing to do any game for Nintendo. It’s up to them.”
X-Scape looks like a really neat game. I’ve actually been looking forward to the title quite a bit since I saw the first trailer. And about Star Fox…I’ve said it before and I’ve said it again – I’d love to see it happen. Now we just need Nintendo to ask Mr. Cuthbert if he’ll do it for them!
