Retro City Rampage has “done incredibly well” on 3DS
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS eShop, News | 0 comments
Vblank Entertainment seems to be pleased with Retro City Rampage’s performance on 3DS. Creator Brian Provinciano tweeted today that the game has “done incredibly well” on Nintendo’s portable.
@JonGryphon 3DS version's done incredibly well.
— Brian Provinciano (@BriProv) July 2, 2014
The comment above originated from a larger discussion about reviews:
Big reviews *DO* influence future reviews and public perception. The perception tints the glasses everyone else enters the game with.
— Brian Provinciano (@BriProv) July 2, 2014
If a game has a positive perception, new players continue to give it the benefit of the doubt if certain aspects don't grip them initially.
— Brian Provinciano (@BriProv) July 2, 2014
If a game has a negative perception, if new players do try it, they'll be quick to write it off.
— Brian Provinciano (@BriProv) July 2, 2014
Retro City Rampage made almost all of its revenue the second year. I do feel strongly that IGN's review significantly damaged the launch.
— Brian Provinciano (@BriProv) July 2, 2014
Word of mouth, and a hundred thousand players playing it on PS+ probably helped public perception overshadow IGN's influence a lot.
— Brian Provinciano (@BriProv) July 2, 2014
RCR:DX later launched to almost unanimous 9/10s. IGN never reviewed it, & in their RCR:DX coverage linked to their 5.3/10 orig RCR review.

Namitentou’s Christopher Arnold on Ping 1.5+
Posted on 10 years ago by Jarop(@gamrah) in 3DS eShop, News | 0 comments
Ping 1.5+ developer Christopher Arnold sat down with WiiWareWave to discuss their new title Ping 1.5+ which they hope to have on the Wii U eShop before the end of July. Here’s an extract of the interview:
Why did you choose to develop games for the Wii U?
[Chris]: I’ve always been a Nintendo fan. I also knew they were looking for help from the indie part of the industury to help boost Wii U sales. It seemed like an easier target than SONY or Microsoft. Also, I knew about every single indie game that came onto Wii U and I wasn’t much of an indie gamer, that means games that came out on it got pretty good exposure just by simply being on there. It could be the difference between being unknown and known?
Check out the full interview here

Yacht Club talks about its relationship with Nintendo
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS eShop, General Nintendo, News, Wii U eShop | 2 Comments
Shovel Knight has been highly trumpeted by Nintendo since the game’s early days of development, up through release. Heck, the title is even playable at the Nintendo World store right now.
All in all, Yacht Club Games’ Nick Wozniak says Nintendo has “been really accommodating to our weird requests, and getting stuff done to see if they can promote us better.”
You can find Wozniak’s full comments about working with the Big N below.
