Tales of Vesperia not coming to Wii

Posted on 15 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 2 Comments

Late last week, voice actor Rikiya Koyama indicated on his blog that a Wii version of Tales of Vesperia would be happening. Hopes of seeing that happen will have to be put aside for now, however. Koyama confirmed today that he made a mistake. He mixed up Vesperia with Tales of Graces, which is coming out for Wii next month in Japan. It’s still possible that we’ll see Tales of Vesperia Wii down the road, but don’t expect it for the foreseeable future.

Perhaps the strangest Wii game/peripheral yet

Posted on 15 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 9 Comments

Have you ever played a game by moving a puppet all around? Well, that’s exactly what you do in Wiiwaa. Zoink Games, a Swedish developer, has gone out of their way to create an entirely new add-on just for their new game. After shoving the Wiimote inside the puppet, players will be able to control the character onscreen to jump, move, shake, and execute other actions. This really is one of the strangest ways I’ve seen to control a Wii game thus far.
