Posted on 14 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 1 Comment
It looks like THQ has some pretty ambitious plans for the de Blob. As we learned a few days ago, the company will be launching a new game in fiscal 2011. But THQ will also be working with SyFy to expand the franchise and produce a cartoon, which will be featured on television and online. THQ has said that they may be open to TV adaptations of their other intellectual properties as well.

TEAM UP WITH A MATE TO GO WAKEBOARD WILD AS AVANQUEST LAUNCHES A FULL WATER SPORTS EXPERIENCE IN TIME FOR SUMMER
Avanquest Software Publishing, a leading consumer software and games publisher, is soon to release Water Sports for the Nintendo Wii. Gamers can jump on their Wii Balance Boards and experience the unique feeling of kite surfing, wake boarding, windsurfing and water craft racing as they take to the waves in exotic locations around the world.
In a unique wake boarding multiplayer mode, the game allows one player to drive a water craft while the other is towed on the board behind. Relying on the driver to set up runs, the boarder must concentrate on executing big tricks and rack up high scores as they are launched off ramps and onto rails.
Nintendo Download: New Game Downloads for Wii and Nintendo DSi Pack a Presidential Punch
Posted on 14 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in DS, News, Wii | 1 Comment
In honor of Presidents Day, let’s take a moment to reflect on the qualities that make a great leader, plus some exceptional games you can use to nurture them. Problem-solving skills are a must, both in the Oval Office and in the new Phoenix Wright™ Ace Attorney: JUSTICE FOR ALL game for the WiiWare service. A way with words is essential, too, as you’ll discover in Scrabble™ Classic for the Nintendo DSiWare service. Real Soccer 2010 proves the value of teamwork, while Spotto! ™ highlights the importance of facing fearsome threats head-on. And while we’re not sure how effective a hedgehog would be as commander-in-chief, the SEGA classic Sonic & Knuckles™ – now available to Wii™ owners via the Virtual Console™ – demonstrates real bipartisan appeal.
