Nintendo Download: New Downloadable Games Will Blow Your Mind, Not Your Budget
Posted on 15 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in DS, News, Wii | 2 Comments
Just because Nintendo offers a rich selection of downloadable games doesn’t mean you have to be rich to enjoy them. Available for just 500 Nintendo DSi Points™ apiece, Looksley’s Line Up™ and Frogger Returns for the Nintendo DSiWare™ service offer immersive virtual world fun and arcade-inspired thrills, respectively, at a budget-friendly price. Check out the complete lineup of incredible titles for the hand-held Nintendo DSi™ system, and while you’re at it, be sure to download the hilarious new Photo Dojo™ game, available for zero Nintendo DSi Points through June 10 (the game will require 200 Nintendo DSi Points for download as of June 11).
BIT.TRIP RUNNER marks a fresh installment in one of the WiiWare™ service’s most acclaimed game series, while the Super NES™ classic Kirby Super Star™ arrives on the Virtual Console™ service, each available to download for only 800 Wii Points™. Also, fans of Band Hero for the Wii™ system can be among the first to play the new Band Hero 1 Track Pack, featuring music from Miley Cyrus (“7 Things”), Selena Gomez (“Falling Down”) and Demi Lovato (“Here We Go Again”). This pack will be exclusive to Wii for one week starting May 18, 2010.
Interview with Renegade Kid
Posted on 15 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, DS, Features, Wii | 7 Comments
Renegade Kid has created some of the most impressive games for the DS since the company was established in 2007. And just a few days ago, their third title for the handheld – Dementium II – made its way onto stores shelves. Renegade Kid owner and director Jools Watsham recently took some time to answer a few questions for us about his latest game and discussed other topics, which included the possibility of developing for Wii and his thoughts about the 3DS.
Nintendo Everything: Your most recent game, Dementium II, was just released last week and it looks like hands-down the scariest game on the DS system. What was the greatest challenge for actually bringing a tense, scary feel to players on a handheld system?
Jools Watsham: I think the most important thing, and one of the most difficult, is to create an authentically creepy atmosphere. We also pushed ourselves to produce a ton more variety in environments and enemies, which took a tremendous amount of work.
NE: Another thing that’s terrifying about Dementium II is the boxart – Who came up with such an awesome illustration?
JW: I agree, I think it is fantastic. This is very unglamorous, but SouthPeak hired a talented design company who came up with it. I expect SouthPeak’s PR Queen, Aubrey Norris, had something to do with it. 🙂 The image was sent to me one day and I was just blown away. I immediately thought it looked incredible, and I felt honored to have such a wonderfully disturbing image for our game.

Zero Suit Samus could make it into Other M
Posted on 15 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 17 Comments
This information comes with a Nintendo Power interview with Yoshio Sakamoto. Sakamoto was asked if players will be able to play as Zero Suit Samus in Metroid: Other M…
“It’s a little hard to say right now, but if it’s something people want, then there may be the possibility for that.”
Metroid: Other M only has a few months of development time left, so there might not be enough time to include Zero Suit Samus. I’m curious about what you guys think, though. Would you like to see Zero Suit Samus playable?
