FORTHCOMING SINGING GAME PACKED WITH FEATURES
2nd October 2009
Karlstad, Sweden: Nordic Games Publishing AB is pleased to announce more details of the forthcoming singing game, We Sing, soon to be released exclusively for the Nintendo Wii.
We Sing can be played in three different and distinct ways – Solo, allowing singers to test their skills; Party – for maximum fun and up to four players, simultaneously; and Karaoke – the original and purist form of singing games.
The last time we showed you something in 720p, we featured screenshots of Resident Evil 4: Wii edition. This time, however, we have some images to share for a true Wii title – Dead Space Extraction. For those who are unaware, the shots were taken using Dolphin, a PC emulator for Wii. Although we do not promote the use of emulators here, we can’t deny that Extraction truly looks beautiful in 720p.
Let the battle begin.

“It’s something that we’re looking into at the moment and there are a few factors to consider. Firstly, Monster Hunter isn’t as popular in the West, so it might put people off. Secondly, Japan doesn’t have Friend Codes, so Capcom run all the servers and the monthly fee is essentially to pay for those costs.” – Chris Kramer, Capcom USA’s Senior Director of Communications and Community
To be honest, I’m not a fan of online fees at all. With that said, I’m sure that many gamers aren’t. If there are no additional charges for Monster Hunter 3, that’d be a huge plus in my book.
