Torrance, CA (September 2th, 2009) – Aksys Games, a publisher of interactive entertainment software, is proud to announce the next evolution in CommanderVideo’s journey, BIT.TRIP VOID! Developed exclusively for WiiWare™ by the crazy brains at Gaijin Games, BIT.TRIP VOID is the next entry in the critically acclaimed retro-arcade BIT.TRIP series which follows CommanderVideo on his epic journey from the ethereal to the corporeal, and beyond…
THE VOID AWAITS…
BIT.TRIP VOID is a synesthetic exploration of rhythm and music as they pertain to our everyday lives and moods. In a control scheme brand new to the series, yet wholly familiar to gamers, the player is given complete freedom to move about the screen wherever they desire, interacting with the music in brand new ways. The classic gameplay aesthetic remains, as color—and the absence of color—are explored to the fullest.
“We make our business decisions independent of actions taken by other companies. We see our main competition as the entire spectrum of entertainment options that people have available. Wii Fit has been a top-selling game ever since it launched and we hope people will respond with similar enthusiasm for Wii Fit Plus…It also adds an array of new features, including the ability to customize workouts, and count calories. Overall, there are 15 entirely new fitness activities, such as skateboarding and a Segway course.” – NOA’s vice president of corporate affairs, Denise Kaigler
Personally, I think $90 is a bit too much for Nintendo to ask for from the Wii Fit Plus bundle. The title itself will be a great deal for those who already have the Balance Board, but the new bundle price is certainly a heavy investment.
– They could use Wii arcade board (used in TvC) for future arcades, but for Tatsunoko is a one off
– Wii chosen as the new platform for the SD stream of Capcom fighting games, and for new players to get into the genre
– NWC online multiplayer will have no territory restrictions
– 3-4 new characters, won’t reveal which ones yet
– game balance being improved for this version
– Tatsunoko chosen for sentimental, well known characters. Many team members grew up with them.
– A lot of feedback asking for online mode after Japanese launch. They decided to include it the next opportunity, and there we have it. Also, in EU and America people live far from each other, so it was a must.
– A lot of OST licenses where pretty difficult to get, more in western version. He had to decide for every character if it was worth the fight, or if it was better to keep resources for other things and go ahead. So revised OST for the West.
– Dash!! Kappei difficult to get due to the co-production between Tatsunoko and TV company.
– Not a huge effort to get those great graphics/effects on the Wii, they say they just took advantage of the full potential of the machine, specially the GPU.
– PS360 version? it would be more intelligent to make a new game for them, giving resources, effort and time that port would require.
