Rumor: Capcom reveals new Resident Evil game for Wii at Captivate 2010
Posted on 14 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Rumors, Wii | 7 Comments
In 2009, a forum member on Vandal Online claimed to have information about the next Resident Evil title for Wii. When the message was posted, the game supposedly had been in development for more than a year. According to the “insider”, it would be a spin-off, but it would feature a mix of third-person exploration/tension elements and on-rails shooting segments.
Fast-forward a few months later (Thursday) and another member says that the game was at Captivate this past week. Obviously, none of this means anything until we receive a confirmation. There is a small amount of credibility to the rumor, however, as the information comes from the same person who leaked details about Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles. It should also be noted that Capcom recently said that the company has unannounced games in the works for the Wii/DS and that fans should look out for Captivate for announcements. Oh, and there’s apparently a big announcement coming this month. But, still, I repeat what I said earlier – Take this as a huge grain of salt until next week.
This is how Cloud Mario will work

Earlier today, Nintendo unveiled Cloud Mario, a brand new power-up that will be available in certain Super Mario Galaxy 2 levels. Strangely, no details were provided as to how it will work. Japanese retailer Neowing, however, states that players will be able to build clouds up and use them as platforms. I suppose that makes sense based on the concept art we’ve seen. We’re still waiting to hear about the actual control implementation for Cloud Mario, but I’m sure Nintendo will share additional information in the coming weeks.

Red Steel 2 sold 50,000 copies in North America last month
Posted on 14 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 5 Comments
“Considering that the NPD sales only accounted for 12 days on the store shelves and that NPD doesn’t include all retailers we are looking forward to a complete month of sales data to see where we stand.” – Ubisoft spokesperson
These sales are only based on twelve days of data, as the game was released on March 23 in North America. Still, the sales are disappointing, and we know the game hasn’t performed well in the UK either. Red Steel 2 should be selling much more based on the title’s quality and commercials on television. Ubisoft seems to believe the game will sell better next month, though.

We already had an idea that this is what the two-player mode would be like in Super Mario Galaxy 2, but now it has confirmed via the Japanese site. Quite an improvement over the original!
