Rumor: Warner Bros. leaked plans, reveals Scribblenauts 2 and Batman title
Posted on 15 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in DS, Rumors, Wii | 2 Comments
While this should most definitely be considered a rumor for now, Warner Bros. may have made a big mistake. If the latest speculation is to be believed, however, the company has leaked some of their 2010 plans. Scribblenauts 2 (Wii/DS), Batman: The Brave and the Bold (Wii/DS), Touchmaster 4 (DS), and Game Party 4 (Wii) are just a few of the titles that have popped up on a list. None of this information is actually confirmed at this time, but if this is true, Warner Bros. will have a number of big releases next year.
Thanks to Robert for the news tip!

Aonuma says Zelda Wii to have different structure, hopes to surprise fans, may be at E3 2010
Posted on 15 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 9 Comments
“It is something we used to talk about with Mr Miyamoto, and he and I agree that if we are following the same structure again and again, we might not be able to give long time Zelda fans a fresh surprise. So we have been trying something new in terms of the structure of the Wii version of the new Zelda game this time. I am really hopeful that people will be surprised with the changes we have implemented for this Wii version. I hope that we can show you something at the E3 show next year and it is something we are hopeful will be surprising.” – Zelda producer Eiji Aonuma
Well, this news may be just what the doctor ordered! I feel like many Zelda fans aren’t satisfied how the series never really changes, but Zelda Wii looks like it’ll be mixing things up a bit. I really can’t wait to see what the game looks like now!

Famitsu has an interesting piece of news besides Phoenix Wright WiiWare. According to the magazine, some sort of No More Heroes game is in development for the PS3/360.

Cammie Dunaway news wrapup – Wii HD rumors shot down, third-party sales talk, and much more
Posted on 15 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in DS, News, Wii | 2 Comments
Cammie Dunaway on the stalling sales of Wii…
“Let’s talk about the U.S., and let’s break it down into the separate platforms. So, speaking first about the Wii–what’s important to understand is that in 2008, we sold 10 million units of the Wii, which was a record for any console ever in history. And so it’s a high mark.
What’s also important to understand is that the pacing of our software this year was quite different than it was in 2008. In 2008, our big titles were released early in the year. And this year’s huge title, released a few weeks ago in October, Wii Fit Plus, is doing quite well. And then arguably, the largest title of the year, New Super Mario Bros. for the Wii, only releases Sunday [November 15]. So we believe that going into the holiday season, consumers will continue to look for the products they see as representing the best value and the most fun…”
