Spectrobes: Origins releasing for Wii later this year
Posted on 16 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 1 Comment
Disney’s Spectrobes has seen two iterations on the DS, but now the series is moving to the Wii.
Spectrobes: Origins is being described as the game’s “big system” debut and will arrive in the fall.
As is the case with most Wii games, Origins will take advantage of the Wii remote. Gamers can expect gameplay elements from the previous two Spectrobes games which include digging up fossils and battling in real-time. One big change, however, is that Genki is developing Origins – not Jupiter, who created the first two games on the DS. Genki is mostly known for racing designs.

Apologies about the quality of some of the images. I think you can see what’s going on though, and we all know that The Conduit looks like a pretty great game anyway.
Rabbids Go Home a new title for Wii
Posted on 16 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 0 comments
In October of 2008, a trademark for Rabbids Go Home popped up. The thing is, no one really knew what it was for sure. Now new information points to Rabbids Go Home as being a Wii title, and most likely another entry in the Rabbids series. The news comes from the résumé of programmer Julien Delezenne, who has apparently been working on the “Engine and Tools on the LyN technology” behind the game. The information has since been pulled though.
It may also be interesting to note that Delezenne also develops techonology for Beyond Good & Evil 2 for the 360 and PS3. Perhaps there is a connection behind the techonology of the two games?
