Hover: Revolt of Gamers will be given the proper attention on Wii U
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 10 Comments
Hover: Revolt of Gamers is a project that we’ve been talking about for awhile now. The original Kickstarter launched last August, and earlier this year, it hit Steam Early Access. Hover’s developers are still hard at work on the project, which includes console ports.
We do know that the game will eventually land on the Wii U eShop. That being said, it’ll be out after the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One versions. That’s because, according to Midgar Studio’s Jérémy Zeler-Maury, Hover will need to be remade from scratch on Wii U “in terms of graphics” as some rendering techniques used apparently don’t run too well on Nintendo’s console. Zeler-Maury also promises that it won’t be a “cheap port”.
Below are his comments in full:
“The WiiU version of Hover is the most complicated thing and will be done after the console releases on PS4 and XB1. It will require us to recreate the game from scratch in terms of graphics. We’re using Physically Based Rendering and other rendering technologies that don’t really run well on WiiU. Also, we promised during the Kickstarter campaign that we would tune the gameplay properly, we don’t want to do a cheap port, so it will take some time.”
Amazon listing the Pokemon 3DS Virtual Console games for $10 each
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS eShop, News | 48 Comments
Game Boy titles on the 3DS Virtual Console tend to be priced at $2.99 or $3.99. There are also Game Boy Color releases that cost $5.99 or $6.99. But for the new Pokemon games on 3DS Virtual Console, it looks like there will be a bit of a price increase.
Amazon is listing Pokemon Red, Blue, and Yellow for $9.99 each. Pricing hasn’t been officially announced just yet, though this is the only information we have to go on at present.
It could be another situation similar to Earthbound and Earthbound Beginnings. Both of those games went above the traditional Virtual Console pricing schemes.
