Rebellion CEO praises Nintendo, has no idea what NX is
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch, Wii U | 11 Comments
Last week, Videogamer spoke with Rebellion CEO Jason Kingsley to talk Nintendo, including the NX.
Regarding the company in general, Kingsley had only good things to say about the Big N. He told the site:
“Nintendo are brilliant. They’re a fabulous company and I love them. I always feel they’re quite eccentric. They come up with some incredible hardware. Even the Virtual Boy back in the day was really intriguing, and then the clamshell design of their handhelds. To be honest, I just don’t know [whether Rebellion will support NX]. The only way I can answer the question is, when we know what the machine is we’ll see and we’ll have a look. I’ve always loved Nintendo, I love their games and love their hardware.”
As for NX, Kingsley has no idea about what the system actually is at this point. He therefore can’t commit to or rule out support until more information has surfaced, though the door is being left open.

Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS eShop, News | 0 comments
Following its series of puzzle games for Wii U and 3DS, Lightwood Games has announced “Dan McFox: Head Hunter” for Nintendo’s handheld. It’s planned for release sometime in 2016.
Dan McFox: Head Hunter is mainly about looking for people based on descriptions provided to the player – sort of like the Guess Who? board game. You can tackle various assignments and earn up to three stars based on your performance in “Mission Mode”, or catch as many suspects as you can in “Round Up” mode (supports leaderboards). There’s also StreetPass support so that you can take on challenges from others.
You can get a good look at Dan McFox: Head Hunter in Lightwood Games’ video below.
