A trailer for Wallace and Gromit’s Grand Adventures has been posted on the official website with a few details, but no confirmed platforms. According to GameDaily, however, the game is well on its way to a Wii release. The Wallace and Gromit website has no indication of the game heading to the Wii, but I’m sure this will be confirmed/denied shortly. In the meantime, you can check out the trailer here.

The lack of a Wii HDD seems to be affecting a lot of people these days – Hardcore gamers, developers, and even casual gamers have begun to realize that 512 megabytes of flash memory simply is not enough storage for a convienent download experience. This applies to Vlad Ceraldi, the CEO of Hothead Games as well. Speaking with Kotaku, Mr. Ceraldi expressed that, although he would be very inclided to bring Penny Arcade Adventures to WiiWare, the idea won’t be considered until Nintendo delivers a storage situation on Wii. “I’d love to be on the platform. It’s purely an issue of size limit. Our game is just too big. If they increase that limit or add a harddrive, anything like that we would revisit [WiiWare].”

“Red Steel 2 has been in development for many months now, and this new device [Wii MotionPlus] will help us be even more precise in what we do with the product. The Red Steel brand is strong – I think we released it on year one, and that people understood that it was a first try on new technology, technology that wasn’t completely finished. And our game tried to grab the best out of it, and was a bit rushed to be sure to offer something in year one to Wii consumers. But Red Steel is still selling well – at a lower price of course, but still it’s in the top 30 or 40 in every country on Wii. So Red Steel is a brand, and as with every brand we have, we now have to reach the top quality possible. What was missing was the preciseness of the sabre – and with this new device I think it will change the experience.” – Alain Corre, executive director for Ubisoft
