Climax’s “stunning and refreshing take on the horror genre” may very well be a Silent Hill game for Wii. However, instead of introducing an entirely new title in the series, the game may actually be a remake of Silent Hill 1. VG247 reports that motion controls will be used for torch functions. Konami, who is involved in the project, has declined to comment.

Posted on 15 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 3 Comments
Nintendo will be releasing the Classic Controller Pro in Japan this summer in Japan, but there are no plans to bring the product to Europe. The controller differs slightly than a regular Classic Controller in shape and has a few more shoulder buttons. Though a European release has been ruled out for now, it’s unclear if the Classic Controller Pro will reach North America.

The Bigs 2 on the way
Posted on 15 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 0 comments
You may remember that The Bigs was released for the Wii about two years ago. The game wasn’t spectacular, but it wasn’t terrible either. It must have been at least moderately successful though, as a new The Bigs title is on the way. The instruction manual for Major League Baseball 2K9 states that the game is coming this summer. No word yet on which platforms that game will be released for.
