“I think Peter Molyneux takes a lot of risks. He’s got this vicarious thing about dealing with little worlds full of little people which very much matches my sensibilities in a way.”
“I’ve always enjoyed [Sid Meier’s] games. His games are just playable, they’re just like a comfortable chair you sit in. I grew up playing board games, and Sid did as well. Sid in some ways is recapitulating our youth, the kind of games we would play back then.”
– Will Wright
Despite some player apprehension regarding the choice of Peter Molyneux, I think Wright has made three very good choices on an idealogical level. These three developers don’t always deliver on their promises and don’t always live up to what Wright has said about them, but when they do they truly make some fantastic games. They’re the type of people that the gaming industry should be all about!
Update: Regarding Europe:

Mutant Mudds Deluxe is now in Nintendo’s hands. Renegade Kid co-founder Jools Watsham confirmed via Twitter that the Wii U eShop game has been submitted to Nintendo of America.
Watsham said:
Mutant Mudds Deluxe has been submitted to NOA! We always try to make it as bug-free as possible, but it could come back. Fingers crossed. 🙂

When might we be seeing Mutant Mudds Deluxe? If all goes well, it looks like it’ll pop up on the eShop in June.
A June release is looking good! 🙂

Interesting… is this kind of like Nintendo’s replacement for Nintendo Show 3D?
We should be seeing Batgirl in the Wii U version of Injustice: Gods Among Us as a DLC download this summer.
A pair of Wii U games are now available at slightly cheaper prices through the eShop.
Assassin’s Creed III can be purchased for $39.99. Meanwhile, Fist of the North Star: Ken’s Rage 2 has been dropped to $49.99. Each was originally priced at $59.99.
