XSEED and Marvelous to co-publish No More Heroes: Desperate Struggle in North America
Posted on 16 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 1 Comment
Publisher XSEED may be taking the cake for one of the better publishers for Nintendo platforms over the next year and a half. International publishing for No More Heroes 2 has been arranged. And, unlike the first No More Heroes title, it has been confirmed that Ubisoft will not be publishing No More Heroes: Desperate Struggle in North America. Rather, Marvelous and XSEED will co-publish the game. As far as Europe goes, Rising Star will be handling the game.

Capcom not ready to commit to a NA release for Monster Hunter 3 just yet
Posted on 16 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 16 Comments
“We’ve made no announcements at this time [Monster Hunter 3 in North America]. The major MH announcement made for the West at TGS was that Freedom Unite was coming to the US next year.” – Christian Svensson, Corporate Officer/VP of Strategic Planning & Business Development
I just can’t imagine Capcom neglecting to bring Monster Hunter 3 to North America. Even though the following isn’t as big in NA as it is in Japan, a number of other Monster Hunter titles have reached its shores; so I don’t see why Capcom would neglect a release of the game in the states.

Back on Thursday, Marvelous Entertainment (Arc Rise Fantasia, Muramasa) revealed a WiiWare title they are developing: Discipline. There are only a few details that are known about the title, but the very strange trailer should give you a good idea about the game’s vibe.

Posted on 16 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 0 comments
Hoffman Estates, IL – October 10, 2008 – High Voltage Software, Inc., one of the world’s largest independent developers, today announced High Voltage Hot Rod Show, an intense new racing title scheduled for release on the WiiWare downloadable service later this Fall.
High Voltage Hot Rod Show requires players to master more than the basic racing skills to compete. A unique stunt system gives players multiple ways to build boost, which drastically increases a Hot Rod’s speed. If you get too greedy, you might crash and burn! The game utilizes the company’s proprietary Quantum 3 Game Engine technology, which provides graphical performance and game play not possible on other Wii titles.
