A résumé for ex-Eurocom animator seems to have let out a bit more information that EA may have desired, naming “Goldeneye 2010” as one of his pieces of past work. Apparently, Craig Peck (the man behind the résumé) worked as an animator on “Activision’s James Bond series for the Nintendo Wii”, and much of his job involved “key frame animation, the preparation and clean-up of motion capture data, prop animation, in-game cut-scene animation, scene layout, and camera animation.”. Of course, no word on whether this means anything or not yet, but as the news comes in we’ll be sure to stay on top of it!
Generally, Japanese stock market index Nikkei doesn’t bring too much in terms of major gaming announcements, but today it brings two. First, we learned of a new DSi model, and now a report from the index tells that Capcom is going to bring their high-end engine, MT Framework, over to Wii. The engine has powered such games as Resident Evil 5 and Lost Planet 2, and it looks as though the company is interested in using the move to not only increase production efficiency, but to include Wii versions of more of their multiplatform games.
As of now, there is no news on what games would be using the engine on Wii, but if you had to speculate, where would your predictions lay?
Acclaimed Japanese newspaper Nikkei published an article in today’s paper regarding a new DSi model. In terms of functionality, it will be exactly the same as what is available on the market now. However, the size of the screen will be augmented to 4″. The price won’t be changing either – In Japan, the “new” DSi will cost 18900 yen. There’s no word yet if this model will release in other territories, although it is currently under discussion.
