“For starters though, we’ve got official confirmation that Tetris Party will be coming to WiiWare next Monday, October 20th for North America. Set your watches, and get your cash ready, as WiiWare is again going to hit with yet another killer title.” – IGN article
I don’t know about you guys, but I’ll be purchasing this game. Tetris Party definitely seems like one of the top-tier WiiWare titles to pick up!
Capcom: More zombies and changes in final Dead Rising build, TGS only had a tech demo
Posted on 16 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 4 Comments
“I’m not sure where ‘this is the final build’ stuff is coming from, because that is simply not true. The TGS “build” was mostly just a tech demo and is not the actual or final game, guys…I believe the situation is this: 1) the final game is almost done. 2) the final game is NOT the tech demo shown at Leipzig or TGS. The tech demo is a tech demo, and is not the final game. No press or media have yet seen the version of the game that Nikai was talking about when he said it was basically done. Someone at Capcom said there would be a new version of the game at TGS because that was the plan, but for reasons I dunno the details on, it didn’t happen. As for why we would show the same thing over again, it mostly boils down to different producers having different attitudes, and Nikai definitely has his own way of doing things. This is not a hair-splitting technicality, as I know a number of things have changed. I haven’t played the final build, so I dunno if it’s going to be 3000% different, but I have seen screenshots, and yes, there are more zombies on the screen and a few other notable changes. I can’t promise the moon without having actually played it, but I’m not trying to double-talk you here. The TGS build is not the final game, and there do appear to be some positive changes going forward.” – Seth Killian, Capcom Community Sr. Manager
What do you guys think? Impressions of the game have been more than critical, but as was mentioned, that was the final build. Will changes that have supposedly been made increase the title’s quality?

No More Heroes 2 will still have humor, an improved open world
Posted on 16 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 0 comments
“I think it’s time for No More Heroes to become serious. But it’s going to have humour, don’t worry. It won’t be too serious…I wasn’t that satisfied with the open world. I wanted to make a lot more stuff, more detail. So this time in No More Heroes 2, I want to take my revenge. And actually, the theme of No More Heroes 2 is revenge, so…” – Suda51
It’s good to know that No More Heroes 2 will take a more serious approach, though Suda seems to understand that there needs to be a balance between being serious and having some humor in the game. The first No More Heroes title was hilarious, so let’s hope that the sequel will provide a similar quality of humor.
Wii Music sells 50,000 units on first day in Japan
Posted on 16 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 4 Comments
The big question when Wii Music was announced was whether or not the title would see the same success that Wii Sports and Wii Fit have experienced. After all, Wii Music follows in the steps of the other two titles in that they’re simple and casual fun that anyone can pick up and play. First day sales of Wii Music from Japan are in, and the numbers should be fairly encouraging for Nintendo. According to Enterbrain, the game has sold about 50,000 copies in its first day. That’s not too shabby at all, and there’s a chance that Wii Music may top the charts in Japan next week.
