BurgerTime World Tour to be taken down from WiiWare
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii Shop Channel | 2 Comments
MonkeyPaw Games is removing BurgerTime World Tour from all digital store fronts – including WiiWare. Licensing agreements have expired, so MonkeyPaw is being forced to take the game down.
BurgerTime World Tour will now be available for the sale price of $4.99 until April 30. Once this day passes, the title will be gone for good.
Those who purchase BurgerTime World Tour prior to its removal will be able to access the game in the future.

Ken Lobb talks about initial fan resistance in making Metroid Prime first-person
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in GameCube, General Nintendo, News | 5 Comments
Ken Lobb, now the creative director at Microsoft Studios, once played a prominent role at Nintendo and worked on several games. This includes Metroid Prime – a title that, at the time, stirred up some controversy for turning the franchise into a first-person adventure.
Lobb spoke about the initial fan resistance surrounding Metroid Prime as part of an interview with EDGE this month. He said:
The fight, in the pre-internet world, was that we were getting a lot of pressure from fans. Nowadays, you’d be buried under Twitter, NeoGAF — both of which I love, by the way — but those voices are even louder today than they were back then. It comes back to a lesson I learned a long time ago: always listen to your customer, but also understand that if you do focus testing what you’re going to hear is, “I want that thing you did last time, because that was awesome.” Every once in a while, you have to learn to not listen to that and go, “Actually, Metroid in firstperson we think could make more sense.” Great creatives are going to disrupt their earlier designs and make things that are new, or build completely new games or new genres.
