“Yes, we are going to keep making Crystal Chronicles titles. If this one does well, we would like to make one in a similar style alongside new multiplayer FF:CC games as well.” – Toshiyuki Itahana
I’ve been disappointed with the reaction to The Crystal Bearers. To me, it seems as though the title is being largely ignored and unappreciated…Which shouldn’t be, considering it bears a strong resemblance to Zelda titles.

Reggie on Metroid: Other M possibly being M-rated, teases MotionPlus support for Galaxy 2
Posted on 15 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 18 Comments
Will Metroid: Other M be the first M-rated Metroid title? Probably not, but President and COO of Nintendo of America Reggie Fils-Aime wouldn’t rule it out. He said that the game won’t necessarily be given a mature rating and that fans shouldn’t look into the term “Project M” too much. Yet it’s still interesting that Reggie simply didn’t say “no” to the possibility of Other M being M-rated.
“Big Metroid surprise. We’ve been holding this one very close to the vest to make sure that the surprise would be there. Not only the game itself looks fabulous but also this collaboration with Team Ninja, which has been very fruitful, very great work together. Not necessarily [M-rated]. At this point, it is very early, we said it’s a title that’s going to come out in 2010. Really, Project M is our internal terminology for the collaboration for what’s being done. Don’t read into it as to what the ESRB will be.”
Reggie also spoke about Super Mario Galaxy 2. He promises that the game will have new hooks to it. Also surprising is that MotionPlus support was teased.
“There are new hooks to it. We’re not announcing exactly what those are. We showed a little taste of what happens with Yoshi, so that’s a new addition to the Galaxy experience. Will it work with MotionPlus or not? We’re going to keep you in suspense a little bit longer on that, but it is obviously going to advance the ball. We feel it has to in order to carry the Mario name.”
Nintendo to introduce “demo play” in new games
Posted on 15 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 13 Comments
A patent discovered in January with Shigeru Miyamoto as the creator hinted that Nintendo may be making their games easier for casual gamers. And this past week, it was teased that, starting with New Super Mario Bros. Wii, Nintendo will implement a system in which these players would find assistance in beating a level. Now Miyamoto has shed light on the first details of a new mode that Nintendo is introducing – demo play.
In New Super Mario Bros. Wii, players will have the ability to temporarily stop the game. The system will then take over and show how to beat that particular level. Once that is complete, gamers can press a button and continue.
“In New Super Mario Bros. Wii, if a player is experiencing an area of difficulty, this will allow them to clear troubled areas and take over when they’re ready. And yes, we’re looking into this for future games.” – Shigeru Miyamoto
