Street Fighter IV on Wii is up to the fans
Posted on 16 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 2 Comments
“The more people that ask about it, the more likely we are to move in that direction. The very existence of Street Fighter IV was based on people asking about it for so long. If we get a lot of requests it will be something we will think about. It might be difficult to reproduce the graphics exactly as they are, but the gameplay should be completely intact. It’s something we can think about.” – Yoshinori Ono, Street Fighter IV producer
Capcom has been a very big third-party developer on the Wii. Having another high-quality title on the system would be great for the fans. The question is, do the fans want the game on Wii?

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.
Penny Arcade Adventures could come to Wii, but storage solution is needed
Posted on 16 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 0 comments
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].”
