Metroid: Other M still on track for 2010, according to Nintendo
Posted on 14 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 5 Comments
“Nintendo’s Metroid Prime: Trilogy is the ultimate collector’s edition experience for fans of the Metroid Prime series, combining all three critically acclaimed games on one disc with Wii motion controls. Copies of the game are currently available at major retailers nationwide. The next highly anticipated offering in the Metroid franchise is Metroid: Other M, which will be available this year.” – Nintendo statement
Even though Nintendo is saying that Metroid: Other M, Super Mario Galaxy 2, and Zelda Wii will all be released this year, I just don’t see that happening. I think Galaxy 2 will be released sometime this year for sure since the game is almost finished with development. If I had to guess, I’d say Zelda Wii is the most likely title to be delayed out of the three.

Nintendo Voice Chat podcast summary
Posted on 14 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in DS, News, Wii | 7 Comments
Nintendo being lazy
– Peer not sure why so many people are getting upset
– Peer wishes you could play New Super Mario Bros. Wii online, sort of lazy/not caring, people are defending it
– Wario Land: Shake It! ran in 4:3 and people were defending that as well
– People are accepting flaws because they are Nintendo
– Sam understands fans who are defending Nintendo
– Nintendo didn’t really upgrade much with Animal Crossing
– The podcast members still feel that Mario Bros. Wii is an amazing game
– Nintendo spends a lot of time making sure a level in Mario is great and making sure you’re not waiting
– Wii is a disc-based system, never notice anything is loading
– Craig thinks Nintendo is starting to get in the habit of rehashing old stuff
– Nintendo has reinvented their franchise in the past, so Peer says you have to forgive the podcast crew for being a little disappointed
– Peer thinks Galaxy 2 will be a safe sequel, which is fine, but if it happens 3 more times, then you start getting disappointed
– Peer wasn’t disappointed that Mario Bros. Wii was like the DS game or anything like that, it’s more about the lack of progress
– The way Nintendo envisions themselves, they don’t go to the same lengths as others do to impress people
– Craig thinks Nintendo will remove GameCube support from the next Wii
– Have to give Wii credit since it has changed video games, Nintendo has innovated in that regard

Reggie: Zelda Wii will be released when it is perfect
Posted on 14 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 132 Comments
Last week, Nintendo president Satoru Iwata stated that the next Zelda title for Wii will be released this year. While that still may be the case, don’t expect the title to ship until it’s perfect. That’s what Reggie Fils-Aime, President and COO of Nintendo of America, had to say about Zelda Wii when he was asked about it on the latest episode of Nintendo Week. You can watch the entire interview on the Nintendo Channel, but we’ve posted Fils-Aime’s remarks concerning Zelda Wii below.
“Right now, it’s still in development, but the key message that Mr. Miyamoto and Mr. Aonuma is telling us is that it really has to be perfect when it launches. That really is what the Zelda fan is expecting. So for all those Zelda fans out there right now, what I would say is, enjoy Spirit Tracks and know that the Zelda title for Wii will come out when it’s perfect.”

Update: Strangely, the picture was replaced with the cover art for the upcoming issue. It’s possible that the image was not supposed to be seen yet, or it’s not an actual representation of the game. If need be, we may have to take down the shot included in this post.
In the upcoming issue of Nintendo Power, the magazine features an exclusive first look at NBA Jam for Wii, which was officially announced today. While much of the game is still shrouded in mystery, the eight-page article present in issue 251 will have some of the first gameplay details. The magazine should hit newsstands and mailboxes soon, but until then, you can take a look at the title’s logo and get a first look at how the game will look above.
