Just in time for the holidays, Capcom has announced that Neopets Puzzle Adventure is now shipping to retail for the Nintendo Wii™.This popular title rated E for Everyone is now available on the Nintendo Wii and DS, as well as the PC.

Created for fans and casual gamers alike, Neopets Puzzle Adventure lets players create and develop one of 12 Neopets characters by completing quests, playing mini-games, and battling others. Players embark on an epic story and travel through three Lands of Neopia with more than 150 quests, while collecting “PetPets” for special abilities.

Call of Duty flops on Nintendo platforms
Posted on 16 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in DS, News, Wii | 17 Comments
Call of Duty: World at War performed fairly well in terms of critical reviews on both the Wii and DS, yet both versions have pretty much sold a dismal amount compared to the 360 and PS3. The 360 version of the game has sold 1.41 units while the PS3 sold roughly 600,000 copies. Disappointingly, only 200,000 units of the game were sold between the Wii and DS. This is slightly surprising since, after all, Activision has been supporting the Wii version in terms of advertising. Commercials of the game seem to appear on television regularly. And let’s not forget that the game has received positive reviews. So the only question is, why haven’t people bought the game?
Take-Two: Too early to discuss new GTA, Chinatown Wars is a test for more mature Nintendo content
Posted on 16 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News | 1 Comment
“[As for] GTA in 2010 — it’s just way too early to talk about [with it still] at full price at retail,” said Take-Two CEO Ben Feder in response. “We’re not saying no, it’s just way to early to be talking 2010, especially ‘GTA’ in 2010.”
“…We’re going to do a lot of learning with ‘GTA: Chinatown Wars’ on the DS in terms of bringing that kind of content to a Nintendo platform. Our partnership with Nintendo is as strong as it’s ever been. We’re really excited about it. We talk to them all the time. They provide great feedback for us. We’re highly focused on it.”

My World, My Way: Changing The World (In a Few Easy Steps)
Posted on 16 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in DS, News | 0 comments
It’s called “My World, My Way” for a reason
December 17, 2008
My World, My Way is far from your typical RPG. Sure, you’ll come across monsters to fight, characters to talk to and interact with, and spells and items to acquire and master, but what other RPG let’s you wrap the world around your finger? Princess Elise doesn’t want to put up with lengthy, boring quests, or get stuck in challenging fights. And she doesn’t have to, because she’s got the power of the pout, irresistible charm, and a borderline reckless disregard for anything that seeks to get in her way.Why hear all this from me when she can tell you about it herself…
Changing the world… Literally
“People tell me the world is a ‘diverse’ place. I don’t know what that means, but apparently, it’s supposed to intimidate me. Well I won’t stand for that! If I don’t feel like boring old plains, I’ll turn them into a forest! And maybe I’ll make the trees dance, while I’m at it. Sometimes, monsters only appear in certain areas. No problem. I’ll just make the type of place I need!”
DK Games Announces Equilibrio for WiiWare

Gripping, Gyrating Ball Puzzler That Tests the Old Grey Matter played with either the WiiTM RemoteTM or Wii Balance BoardTM Available Soon
PARIS, FRANCE – December 18th, 2008 – DK Games an independent premier video game developer, announced today the upcoming release of Equilibrio a new mesmerizing and gripping, gyrating ball puzzle solving and manipulation game for those that like something a little different. Equilibrio will be released on WiiWare™, Nintendo´s new downloadable game service for the Wii console, first in Europe, then later in the Americas.
Set in a colorful world the challenge may look simple but Equilibrio tests not only your reflexes but the old gray matter and is in perfect synergy with Wii. The basic concept of getting your ball to the exit pod to finish the level is turned upside down, literally, as you use your Wii Remote™ or Wii Balance Board™ to rotate the play area varying degrees in either direction. Players carefully, skillfully move the spinning ball through corridors, along ledges to complete levels that are fraught with dangers. Move the ball too fast and it can shatter, leaving you to pick up the pieces and restart the level. Go too slow and the ‘equilibrio’ of the ball will not be powerful enough to spring to the desired spot!
