No online multiplayer for Little King’s Story,
Posted on 16 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 0 comments
A few new details have hit the newswire regarding Little King’s Story for Wii. The game will not have any online features, which seems to even include WiiConnect24 support. Granted, not every game, especially Little King’s Story, truly needs online functions. Also, a surprise announcement of sorts will be revealed at the Tokyo Game Show this October regarding local multiplayer. Any type of specifics were not mentioned although the event is less than two months away.

– Orchestra mode accompanies the main mode (kind of like a mini-game)
– ‘Ring the hand bell along with the pattern’ mini-game (like Simon Says)

I’m not sure I’ve heard anyone say that we’re pleased with its sales [Zack and Wiki] and alas, I can’t really comment on the prospects of a sequel. I think there was a lot learned from the title though. – Christian Svensson, Corporate Officer/VP of Strategic Planning & Business Development

Licensing issues preventing DuckTales, TaleSpin, other Capcom titles on the VC
Posted on 16 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 2 Comments
Wondering if the Virtual Console will ever house classic Capcom titles such as DuckTales? Sadly, the chances are pretty slim. Capcom’s Corporate Officer/VP of Strategic Planning & Business Development Christian Svensson has given the news that licensing issues are preventing the releases of Capcom-developed games such as DuckTales, TaleSpin, Darkwing Duck. “Licensing issues abound. I think you’d be hard pressed to see them show up, but you never know.”
