While we’re all busy speculating about new DS redesign rumors, the next Wii system, Wii HD, may already be in development. According to John Davison, a well-known industry insider, Wii HD would hit the market in 2011. With Wii HD, Nintendo would be putting “a greater emphasis on digitally distributed and backwardly compatible content” in addition to a graphical overhaul. Davison suggests that R&D costs at Nintendo have been rising, thus that issue would be something Nintendo would fix with Wii HD.

Tired of Crawling Through Dungeons? Why Not Learn to Make Your Own?

IRVINE, Calif. – September 30, 2008 Normally a safe and quiet town, South Arc has come under attack by monsters infesting the nearby forest. As the town’s most ambitious young orphan, and the only person without a real job, you are charged with the responsibility of ridding South Arc of its monster infestation. You’ve just made friends with a magic talking shovel that can help you build a dungeon that will lure monsters inside. Once inside, you can use your strength and magic to exterminate the beasts – hopefully finding some rare items on the way out. But wait… how’s one young boy supposed to defend the whole town from an army of monsters?

The first step in mastering your skills and protecting South Arc from hordes of monsters is to understand the resources at your disposal. The citizens of South Arc are more than willing to help you with your quest. Most of the villagers own shops and, despite your working to save their lives from monsters, are totally willing to charge you a small fee for their services. These shops, along with some friends and local landmarks, will be the key to your success. Come, learn about the special town of South Arc.

“Nope. No TGS showing. We haven’t decided yet whether it’s going to ship in Japan… that determination won’t be made for several more weeks so showing it at a Japan consumer show doesn’t make a lot of sense. Don’t worry… you won’t be able to miss it when it resurfaces.” – Christian Svensson, Corporate Officer/VP of Strategic Planning & Business Development

As we already know, Spyborgs is going through a big overhaul and it looks like Capcom has completed some major changes. Capcom has been pretty selective of where its latest titles it will release, but I suppose that it’s just a matter of whether or not the company believes the specific game is suited for certain territories.
