“We’ll see what we can do about Fragile, we’d love an opportunity to work on it but of course the final decision doesn’t rest with us. Afraid can’t share any details, but we’ll keep trying.” – Ken, XSEED Games
Right now I’m pretty concerned about the fate of Fragile in North America. I would love to see XSEED publish the game…Or anyone for that matter!
Reef Entertainment, the publisher responsible for Free Running, is proud to announce that Rogue Trooper®: Quartz Zone Massacre will be launched across Europe on Friday 27th February 2009.
Rogue Trooper®, a genetically engineered super-soldier from the pages of iconic UK sci-fi comic 2000 AD, represents Reef’s first foray onto the Nintendo Wii platform and promises to be one of the Wii’s most exciting and engaging 3rd person shooter titles yet.
Peter Rezon, managing director of Reef said, “We have high hopes for Rogue Trooper®. The tactical use of stealth as well as the all-out action fit perfectly with the Nintendo Wii interface, providing exciting and immersive gameplay. Rogue has a cult following from when he first appeared in 2000 AD and we have returned to the original storyline for the Wii version of the game to remind people how Rogue came about, but it is the strong characters and storyline which will have great appeal for gamers of all types. We believe this will become one of the very best shooter titles ever available on Nintendo Wii.”

Nintendo has finally got in touch with the developer of Bob’s Game about receiving a dev kit to finish his project. But unfortunately for him, Nintendo stated in a letter that they are unable to offer Authorized Developer status to him at this time. In the letter, Nintendo mentions that the company “looks for relevant game development experience” in addition to looking “for secure business facilities, sufficient equipment and staffing, financial stability and other attributes that would distinguish the developer.”
Full letter after the break:

The website for the Metroid Prime remake (New Play Control! Metroid Prime) opened its doors today, yet an image on the main site has been the focus of Metroid news today. On the page, a little snippet can be seen towards the bottom and reads “Another Side Story” with Japanese text underneath. At this time, it’s completely unclear what this side story is. It could be something specifically relating to the Japanese Metroid website, or perhaps something else entirely. However, it would be kind of ridiculous to jump to the conclusion that this is a new game. You never know though, right? Guessing aside, the confusion should be cleared up shortly as the image also says that the side story is “coming soon.” Even if this side story is unrelated to a new title, it should be interesting to fans nonetheless.
