Assassin’s Creed III creative director talks GamePad functionality
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 0 comments
Assassin’s Creed III is significant for a number of reasons. It’s by far the biggest entry in the series, and it’ll be making its first appearance on a Nintendo home console.
Creative director Alex Hutchison discussed how the Wii U GamePad will enhance gameplay in an interview with ONM.
Hutchison first talked about the benefits of having a large map available at all times:
“Assassin’s Creed 3 is obviously an open world game and we’re dealing with huge expanses. It’s by far the biggest Assassin’s Creed we’ve built to date so having a map – a larger map – at your disposal at all times is a big win. It allows you to plan your navigation, see when enemies are nearby so the bigger the map, the better in our universe.”
And about fight scenes…
“During combat on the Wii U, you have always have access to all your other tools and weapons on the controller itself. So at any point you can very easily switch between your tomahawk and knife or hidden blades and sword without going into a menu.
“We have a new move called the running assassination. You can imagine charging into combat, taking out your first enemy, immediately killing a second with your tomahawk and knife, using a pistol to shoot a third and then switching using the controller to a smoke bomb to affect your escape.”

Can you believe that Pikmin 3 made its debut over ten years ago? It’s even tougher to believe that more than eight years have passed since its sequel was made for the GameCube.
Yesterday we heard from Shigeru Miyamoto that Nintendo’s experiments on a variety of platforms – including the 3DS – contributed to Pikmin 3’s lengthy development. Miyamoto has additionally said that the team was considering what an actual Pikmin title should be like.
Miyamoto stated:

Go! Go! Kokopolo could be getting a sequel on the 3DS eShop. The game’s creator, Keith Webb, seems to have significant interest in making a followup.
Webb is currently gauging interest for a possible sequel. The new title would feature new bosses, levels, and more.
It also sounds like the game would be available for a lower price than its predecessor. Go! Go! Kokopolo can be purchased through DSiWare for 800 points ($8).
Gaijin Games talks Runner 2, Wii U game ideas
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 0 comments
Bit.Trip Presents Runner 2 was finally confirmed for Wii U last week following several teases and hints. As a result, Gaijin Games’ Alex Neuse is now able to discuss the version for Nintendo’s new console.
Neuse first commented on how the controller can be used in the game:
“For Runner2, we’re thinking about how we can use the controller as an alternate world. For instance, what if CommanderVideo got warped down to the controller and had to do stuff different to what’s going on in the main game. It’s turning into a new canvas to paint on.”
Runner 2 probably won’t be the only Wii U title from Gaijin Games. Neuse has a number of ideas for the console/controller, some of which were shared in an interview with ONM:
“I’m imagining a game in which two players play co-op, with one using the Wii U controller and the other using a standard Wii Remote. What if the person with the Wii U controller could help the other person with the Wii U controller could help the other player out using, say, surveillance cameras, a bit like Theora Jones with Edison Carter [from Max Headroom].”

Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 0 comments
Kirby’s Dream Collection Special Edition isn’t just a simple game package. In addition to the six games mentioned earlier today, Nintendo is including other content.
Players will find an on-disc calender featuring a look back at the series. A special booklet and soundtrack will be included as extra goodies.
We’re waiting on pricing information at the moment, but it could be around $30. Super Mario All-Stars Limited Edition launched at that very price back in 2010.
