Famitsu has an interesting piece of news besides Phoenix Wright WiiWare. According to the magazine, some sort of No More Heroes game is in development for the PS3/360.

Cammie Dunaway news wrapup – Wii HD rumors shot down, third-party sales talk, and much more

Cammie Dunaway on the stalling sales of Wii…
“Let’s talk about the U.S., and let’s break it down into the separate platforms. So, speaking first about the Wii–what’s important to understand is that in 2008, we sold 10 million units of the Wii, which was a record for any console ever in history. And so it’s a high mark.
What’s also important to understand is that the pacing of our software this year was quite different than it was in 2008. In 2008, our big titles were released early in the year. And this year’s huge title, released a few weeks ago in October, Wii Fit Plus, is doing quite well. And then arguably, the largest title of the year, New Super Mario Bros. for the Wii, only releases Sunday [November 15]. So we believe that going into the holiday season, consumers will continue to look for the products they see as representing the best value and the most fun…”

Namco Bandai site provides more clues for new RPG
Posted on 14 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 0 comments
As we already know, Namco Bandai opened a new teaser site last week for a new RPG game. Over the weekend, some Japanese text popped up which stated, “that RPG will return.” The site has been updated once again today and provides a few more clues as to what this returning RPG is. Images of a lake, a volcanic area, a grassy area, and a sea with an old road can now all be seen. Additionally, there is some new Japanese text on the site such as “unknown world” and “solve a lost mystery.” Based on the design of the images, perhaps this is a new Tales title. We’ll find out for sure in three days.
Thanks to Thomas N for the news tip!
