Pier Solar HD going through the submission process
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 1 Comment
Pier Solar HD is coming closer to release. The game was recently approved by Valve for release on Steam, but the team “failed some internal requirements on the certification” with Microsoft, which ultimately impacts the Wii U launch. Developer Watermelon says this shouldn’t take too long and a final release date should come sooner rather than later.
We’re starting the submission process for PSHD. Valve already approved it for release on Steam so that’s done and done. We may contact some of you who subscribed to beta test to test the game on Steam using a beta key. Stay tuned. Microsoft already evaluated Pier Solar as well but we failed some internal requirements on the certification and we’re correcting them for the next submission. This also impacts Wii U and PlayStation(s) submissions since we want to send it as clean as possible so that we don’t get another failed certification. Luckily, the process doesn’t take as long as we thought, so the perspectives to getting a release date gets better. As soon as we’re certified on all platforms we’ll announce the date and put it on the street. We’re also submitting PSHD for PEGI, which is slightly more complex than ESRB, but required for a release in Europe. We’re expecting a rating of PEGI 7. One last thing, we’re working to get a publisher to release PSHD in Japan. Due CERO regulations it’s only possible to release a game if a studio has an established working office in Japan and we don’t have it. So once we get it we’re secure to release in Japan, this, hopefully could also lead to having a publisher for 360. Fingers crossed.

WaterMelon once again says Pier Solar HD could hit 3DS, Wii U tidbits
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS eShop, News | 0 comments
WaterMelon has reiterated that Pier Solar HD is a possibility for 3DS.
Company president Tulio Adriano Cardoso Gonçalves told RedBull UK:
“We’d like to have supported more platforms at the launch, but we had to draw a line at certain point so that we didn’t lose our focus. Still, there’s a lot of demand for handhelds such as 3DS and PS Vita, so we’ll assess those after the game is launched on the main platforms.”
A few tidbits about the Wii U version of Pier Solar HD have been divulged as well. As far as how the GamePad is being taken advantage of, Gonçalves said:
“On the Wii U you can either use the GamePad as a mirror screen for off-TV play, or as a fully-interactive second screen that will allow you to perform many operations related to your inventory, spells and other new functions new to Pier Solar HD.”
