Ansimuz Games bringing Elliot Quest to Wii U early next year
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 2 Comments
Ansimuz Games has almost finished work on its Zelda II-inspired Elliot Quest, a new indie adventure RPG with five dungeons, 16 bosses, and plenty of treasure. Players will explore the Urele island in search of an ancient demon.
Here’s an official story overview:
After Elliot’s wife disappears, he falls sick and attempts to take his own life-only to discovers that he can’t die. Plagued by nightmares and growing weaker by the day, Elliot seeks out a local Sage, who tells him that he’s the victim of a rare curse. A demon called a Satar is slowly consuming Elliot’s vitality. If Elliot can’t find a cure to the curse before it’s too late, he will become a Satar. His only hope is to ask for the help of one of the island’s Guardians, who have kept the Satar from taking over Urele. Elliot can’t die—but he’s still running out of time.
Elliot Quest offers character customization through a leveling up system, a variety of magic attacks, chain attacks to make enemies drop more items, a trio of unique endings based on your decisions, and more.
Elliot Quest will be released for Wii U via the eShop in early 2015. You’ll find a trailer above. An early alpha demo for browsers is located here.

Retro City Rampage to be updated with “DX” content on WiiWare next week
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii Shop Channel | 0 comments
The WiiWare version of Retro City Rampage will soon be updated with “DX” content. All missions have been tweaked, which extends to vehicles, weapons, challenges, visual effects, visual enhancements, checkpoints, difficulty, and challenges. Enhancements have been made to the core gameplay as well as smaller elements such as parking garages and waypoints.
Once the “DX” content is released, Retro City Rampage on WiiWare will be in line with the other versions of the game – mostly anyway. Only HD video filters and zoom modes will be missing. The Wii Remote, Classic Controller and GameCube Controller will all be supported, and there’s an optional “shake” gesture exclusive to the Wii Remote.
Retro City Rampage has also been rated in Australia in New Zealand, so the game should be out in these territories soon. Meanwhile, look forward to the “DX” update in other regions on November 13.
