Nintendo Power has released even more information on LIT and the mysterious Cursed Mountain title.

LIT

-Developer of Contra 4 and Shantae (Way Forward)
-’Built around the concept that light is life and darkness is death.’
-Play as ‘Jake,’ a high school student whose school is overrun by shadowy creatures that are too dark to see, but can be sensed crawling and scratching everywhere!
-Jake and his girlfriend, the only survivors, are in contact only by cell phone.
-Thirty levels and five ‘puzzle oriented’ bosses (all former school staff, now horrible monsters)
-Use control stick for movement
-Carve paths via light sources to escape
-Wii remote is flashlight
-Switch from top down view to 3d behind back perspective.
-Turn on lamps, break windows and more to light the way and survive.
-Use tools such as flares, TV remotes, slingshot, computer monitors and more to escape!

Cursed Mountain

-Use Tibetan Prayer movements to exorcise demons.
-Enter the ‘Bardo’ or Tibetan Spiritual Realm to see otherwise invisible ghosts.
-Combat mechanics are why developer Deep Silver chose Wii.
-Wanted a survival horror that wouldn’t let you clutch the controller close, saying that the open armed movements make you feel ‘very vulnerable,’ which adds to the experience.
-The mountain itself offers exciting challenges, including a balance act that requires you to tilt the remote for balance as you cross a narrow passage.

The latest Nintendo Power issue seems to be making its rounds to mailboxes, and reader Biggity was willing to hook us up with a few details. First, as IGN noted last night, WiiWare title LIT is in this month’s issue. According to the magazine, the game should be completed by year’s end. In next month’s edition, Nintendo plans on having an Ocarina of Time 10th Anniversary blowout. Eiji Aonuma will be interviewed, and as always, I’m sure he Mr. Aonuma will be asked about the next Zelda.

“The thing that I did when I took over last year was to boast the appeal of games themselves…The main premise of the PS3 is video games. That’s the absolutely most important thing that we cannot lose sight of. We cannot allow Nintendo run off alone.” – Kaz Hirai

Obviously Mr. Hirai would say something like this. Sony isn’t going to go around endorsing Nintendo or anything to that extent. Sony still probably believes they can make a big impact this generation.
