Quick Update: We were told some time back that every one’s favorite hedgehog, Sonic, would be shipping in March. That date has held for quite some time….until today. Sega released a new game ship schedule where Sonic has changed from March to Spring 2007″.
Here are some new details of the upcoming Nintendo Wii game No More Heroes Wii :
-The version of the game running right now is about 35% of the final build
-Weapon and vehicle design is being handled by Shigeto Koyama
-Character design by Yusuke Kozaki
-Wiimote control is important. You keep the Wiimote either high, low, or centered to put the main character into certain fighting stances. Standard attacks are performed with the A button.
-The Wiimote vibrates in conjunction with the Beam Katana
-Finishing moves are performed by matching on screen gestures
-The main city in the game is called Santa Destroy
-You move about the game either by foot, or on your motorcycle, all of your own accord
-You take mission objectives (murder targets) in order to collect money, or gain new weapons
-You begin each day in a motel where you can change clothing and equipment. There are said to be over 100 t-shirts to collect.
Interesting stuff indeed. We will keep you updated.
Here are some brand new shots of the graphically impressive Pokemon battle for the Nintendo Wii.
That’s the question that uber popular search engine Yahoo asked gamers who purchased Nintendo’s 5th console Wii. Here is the full article below: (Huge props to Mowser for the find!)
Picture this. You’re lining up the perfect shot in Wii Bowling, remote in hand. You set up the shot, swing the remote with all the strength you can muster, and… follow through a little more than you intended.
Somehow the remote leaves your sweaty-palmed grip and bang, smash, there goes your TV, window, photo of your granny, anything that happens to be in the path of the newly liberated remote.
Hold on, though. If you’re wearing the (supplied) wrist strap, no harm done, right? So you’d think. As you can see, some Wii owners are finding the strap decidedly lacking. (Check out nascent site wiihaveaproblem.com for more strap malfunctions.) The problem isn’t with the amply broad strap itself, but the considerably narrower section that connects the strap with the remote, which is prone to fray in some circumstances. The result is smashed remotes, smashed televisions, smashed windows, and unhappy (or, at least, somewhat red-faced) customers.
