Sam Raimi worked on a trio of Spider-Man movies before Sony moved on with The Amazing Spider-Man. However, there were originally talks of a fourth film happening. That prompted Eurocom to work on a prototype for a game based on Spider-Man 4, which ultimately never saw the day of light.
Gaming Alexandria and Hard4Games have now shared some of the first footage specifically from the Wii version. Since development was never finished, the prototype only contains two incomplete stages, lacks detail, and has debug features. Still, it’s an interesting look at what could have been.
Here’s the full video as posted by Hard4Games:

Shovel Knight has been on just about every platform you can imagine. That includes Switch, a system that Nintendo came out with long after the game’s release. Despite that, it’s been doing pretty well on the platform.
During an interview with Destructoid, Yacht Club Games’ Sean Velasco and David D’Angelo mentioned that Switch accounts for “25% of total sales on all platforms,” which the team feels is “wild”. Shovel Knight: Treasure Trove is said to be selling “decently” on all platforms overall.

GameDaily recently caught up with former Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime. Reggie retired from the company earlier this year after more than fifteen years with the company.
Reggie had some interesting things to say during the interview, and spoke about his decision to retire, his relationship with the late Nintendo president and CEO Satoru Iwata, and how the company wanted to shake up the industry with Wii and DS rather than going with “more horsepower and more accurate visual representation.”
We’ve rounded up these comments from GameDaily’s interview below. You can find the full discussion here.
