Telltale dev: iPhone more powerful than Wii, DS and Wii are limited
Posted on 15 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in DS, News, Wii | 12 Comments
A developer over at the Telltale forums has caused a bit of controversy with some of his comments. A member who had recently downloaded the first chapter of Tales of Monkey Island, noting his dissatisfaction with the game, posted some big complaints relating to frame rate issues. A Telltale developer responded in the topic, but riled up a few Wii owners in the process by saying that “An iPhone is much more powerful than a Wii.”
“The voices and textures are the way they are because we’re limited to 40 megs for WiiWare titles. The PC versions of our games are usually 150+ megs, and most modern games range anywhere from 1-10 gigabytes or more. Talk to Nintendo about this one.
Frame rate issues will probably get sorted out eventually, but keep in mind that the Wii is just not a powerful console. An iPhone is much more powerful than a Wii, even.”
Later, in a response to a user saying that he used “strong words,” the developer said:
“And I stand by them. The Wii and DS are extremely underpowered and their popularity doesn’t remove the hardware limitations.”

Leaked concept art of Epic Mickey
Posted on 15 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 3 Comments
A few months back, we heard that Warren Spector was busy at work on a game named “Epic Mickey.” We still don’t know much about the project, but now some leaked concept art has surfaced. Also, artist Tony Pulham noted on his resume that it is a Wii game (although that’s still not confirmed) and, better yet, said that it’s still in development. “Epic Mickey” certainly looks like an ambitious title, so we would hope that it isn’t canned. While we wait – and hope – for additional information, you can check out some of the leaked concept art above.
