A few new details have hit the newswire regarding Little King’s Story for Wii. The game will not have any online features, which seems to even include WiiConnect24 support. Granted, not every game, especially Little King’s Story, truly needs online functions. Also, a surprise announcement of sorts will be revealed at the Tokyo Game Show this October regarding local multiplayer. Any type of specifics were not mentioned although the event is less than two months away.

Girl saves her family from car crash through GTA knowledge
Posted on 15 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 1 Comment
Whenever one steps into the driver’s seat, there’s always the possibility of a car accident whether the event is caused by a passenger or a maniac on the road. Although, who would ever believe that Grand Theft Auto would actually save a family that was involved in car trouble?
The Norris family was en-route to meet up with relatives when Robert Norris Jr., the father of the family, was feeling a bit lightheaded and swerved off the road. After a few flips and tumbles, the car eventually ended up right by a ditch. Fortunately, it was one of the Norris daughters, Audrey Plique, who saved the family.
Plique knew that if she didn’t get the rest of her family out of the car, her loved ones might end up seriously injured – at the least. She helped everyone exit the car and lead them to safe ground.
Karen Norris, Audrey’s mother, commented on the situation. “She just knew, from playing ‘Grand Theft Auto.’ She saw on there that when a car rolls over, it can blow up. She knew that could happen to us.”
