Australian studio Evil Aliens has been working on a new title “Orbitor” for well over a year. It’s described as “a visually stunning action adventure game which takes place in space themed environments ranging from nebulas to complex orbital systems.”

In 2014, Nnooo intends to publish Orbitor in the US, Europe, Australia, and New Zealand. There are plans to bring the title to consoles, so hopefully we’ll be seeing this one on the Wii U.

Other pertinent information about the title:

Within each space system players must control a space probe named ORBITOR to lock it onto objects, orbit them to gather speed, destroy them and collect the energy life forms they release.
The probe is an autonomous and self repairing Artificial Intelligence returning to its place of origin complete with upgraded abilities and a new mission – to stop its creator.

Nintendo and Panasonic join forces to improve game interaction

Nintendo and Panasonic have joined forces to make easier-to-use game machines, Nihon Keizai Shimbun writes in a new report.

According to the newspaper, Nintendo made an investment in software created to recognize characters entered on the DS touchscreen through a Panasonic subsidiary called PUX Corporation primarily involved with facial recognition software for digital cameras and voice recognition. Nintendo recently purchased 27% of the PUX shares that Panasonic originally held 78% of for roughly 35 million yen, and Nintendo will be sending outside support through its own development department.

PUX has pursued new technology developed for the user interface to enhance the operation of systems, such as new consoles. Noteworthy about the news is that Nintendo seems to want to take advantage of this new technology and add it to the company’s future development.
