Video: A look into Bottlerocket’s Watchmen games that never happened, planned for Wii
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Videos, Wii | 0 comments
About a decade ago, Bottlerocket Entertainment was pursuing a new Watchmen game in collaboration with Warner Bros. It was planned to take inspiration from the comics that follows the Watchmen team as they impacted historical events. The team also tinkered around a Rorschach-focused title that would have offered third-person action gameplay in an open world.
We’ve heard that Bottlerocket Entertainment was actively targeting Wii as a probable multiplatform title. However, it wasn’t meant to be. With Bottlerocket needing a source of income and Warner Bros. still working on the contract, Brash Entertainment stepped in. Brash heard about Bottlerocket’s troubles, and put out a proposal for the developer to work on a new game based on The Flash. Bottlerocket accepted, meaning they would no longer be able to work on Watchmen.

Miyamoto on Nintendo’s thinking that led to the creation of motion controls with Wii

In the new documentary series Unlocked: The World of Games, Revealed, Shigeru Miyamoto was interviewed and asked about a wide array of topics. Among these was the creation of the Wii Remote.
Miyamoto talked about what prompted Nintendo to pursue motion gaming. With controllers and games becoming more complex at the time, some people were falling away from the industry. Nintendo wanted to find a way to bring them back into the fold and make things simpler. That’s where the conversation started, according to Miyamoto.
His full response:

Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, Switch, Videos | 4 Comments
Square Enix showed a bit of brand new Dragon Quest XI footage during its Jump Festa stage show just a few minutes ago. Check out the gameplay below.
Square Enix showed the 3DS and PlayStation 4 versions of Dragon Quest XI during its presentation. The 3DS release seems to be its own thing, but it gets hazy when it comes to Switch. The thought currently is that the Switch edition will match up similarly to the PlayStation 4 title, though we’ll have to wait and see.
