SEGA’s unannounced Leipzig game is a Wii title
Posted on 16 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 0 comments
SEGA officially revealed its Leipzig lineup through a press release last week, but one particular enigma that was included pertains to a “world exclusive.” In the same press release, SEGA said that gamers can expect the unannounced game to be present at this year’s Leipzig. However, some of the specifics are beginning to narrow, as information shows that the new title is a Wii game.
Does anyone have a guess as to what the game could be? I’m still going for that new Sonic-controlled balance board game…(Just kidding!)

Tony Hawk’s Motion rated by the OFLC
Posted on 16 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in DS, News | 0 comments
There have been rumors for months that the next Tony Hawk Game would use an accelerometer or some sort of motion control. Well, this looks to be like a pretty clear indication that we can expect something in that manner. I kind of hope that the name is changed, though!

One WiiWare Game and Two Virtual Console Games Added to Wii Shop Channel
Fans of ’80s platforming action have something to shout about this week—namely, the Virtual Console™ debut of a true classic: Mega Man™. Whether you’re experiencing this vintage robot adventure for the first time or reliving the fun of your NES® heyday, you’ll find all of the game’s side-scrolling thrills intact. Meanwhile, players with a passion for sinking the perfect shot can rule the table with a new WiiWare™ pool title or conquer the links in a challenging, globetrotting golf game.
Nintendo adds new and classic games to the Wii™ Shop Channel at 9 a.m. Pacific time every Monday. Wii™ owners with a high-speed Internet connection can redeem Wii Points™ to download the games. Wii Points can be purchased in the Wii Shop Channel or at retail outlets. This week’s new games are:
Capcom up for more Viewtiful Joe if potential is recognized
Posted on 16 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 2 Comments
“There’s no ‘percentage chance’ that I could give you [Viewtiful Joe this generation] that would at all be accurate. If it strikes someone of influence (a producer of note, Inafune, Takeuchi, perhaps even me) that it’s something that has potential (both gameplay and sales) then it could happen. If not, it won’t. I can’t predict who might or might not see that potential.” – Christian Svensson, Capcom’s Corporate Officer/VP of Strategic Planning & Business Development
The first Viewtiful Joe game was produced by the folks at Capcom, but the other titles in the series were created by Clover Studios (which has partially become Platinum Games.) Atsushi Inaba oversaw the development of all the Viewtiful Joe titles and is currently working for Platinum Games, so I suppose someone else would need to take the helm of development in the future.
The Conduit devs striving for LAN play, inspired by Halo and Golden Eye
Posted on 16 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 0 comments
The Conduit is shaping up to be the total third-party Wii package. The graphics, gameplay, and controls are all nailed down. Oh, and don’t forget online play. High Voltage Software is doing its best to deliver the best online experience, but is also interested in adding LAN play in the game. Speaking with 4 color rebellion, High Voltage Software’s Eric Nofsinger explained, “Our plan is to deliver a solid multiplayer experience both online and LAN.” You might also be interested in knowing that The Conduit was influenced by the likes of Halo and Golden Eye – two very huge and revered games!
