Enjoy, since this is the day we (sheep)celebrate! Nintendo delivered! Big! Woooh! *Thanks to NeoGAF. *

DS Demo Channel (Everybody's Nintendo Channel) announced

Nintendo announced that a DS download service is coming that will allow gamers to download DS demo's from your Wii and send them to your DS. It also lets users download and view video's for (upcoming) Wii games.

Fire Emblem DS announced









Apparently a remake of the very first Japan only NES Fire Emblem.

Online co-op in Super Smash Bros. Brawl confirmed

This doesn't need explenation, I would guess it's about the offline Adventure Mode you can go through with a friend in co-op but instead you can do it online. IGN confirmed it in their blogupdates on the event ("online co-op of some form").

Sonic in Super Smash Bros. Brawl confirmed

New trailer showed, plus a additional Sonic trailer on the Dojo site on which you can see his moves, hear ingame Sonic music from Sonic Adventure 2 Battle and see the start of his Final Smash (Super Sonic!).



"Super Smash Bros. Brawl - Finish the fight!" ;)

Both new trailers and character profile including more screens is located here.

WiiWare blowout

WiiWare uncovered, 7 new games announced, releasedate in Japan and pricing off 1 high profile WiiWare titel.

Quote: Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: The Young King and the Promised Land
Developer: Square-Enix
Website:http://www.square-enix.co.jp/littleking/



Square Enix brings a 2nd Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles exclusive to WiiWare. New genre, new name/logo, new devteam.
In FF CC:The Young King and the Promised Land you play as a young king that has to rebuild his country after it was destroyed in the previous Crystal Chronicle game.

(click on the thumbnails for original size)




[ 5 ][ 6 ]

Pricing: Only 1500 WiiPoints ($15) to download in Japan. Looks like a full blown game (simulation RPG) with great graphics (for Wii).

Official trailer Looks awesome, 1 minute actual gameplay

Pokémon Farm
Developer: Nintendo

In Pokémon Farm you can import your Pokémon from Diamond & Pearl and transfirm them to this Wii Ware titel so that you can put them on your Pokemon-farm. On this farm you can raise your Pokemon and take care of them.

[ Video ] (looks basic and kinda boring so don't expect much..)

Dr. Mario
Developer: Nintendo

Dr. Mario is a puzzelgame like the other Dr. Mario's, but this time it's online.

Star Soldier R
Developer: Hudson

Star Soldier R is the sequal off Star Soldier. A 3D verticale shooter filled with action, in which you have to destroy your enemies.



Bomberman
Developer: Hudson

Hudson also comes with Bomberman to Wii Ware (surprise!). Same goal as ever, destroy your enemies.

Joy Sound
Developer: Hudson

Joy Sound is a karaoke game and additional to the retail version, Joy Sound also comes to WiiWare. If you have a microphone (don't know if this is neccesarry), then you can download the game. You can download additional songs.

Mojipittan
Developer: Bandai Namco

Mojipittan is a puzzelgame that is very populair in Japan on the DS and PSP.

More screenshots off these WiiWare games can be found here.

Already known WiiWare games:

Gravitronix
Developer: Medaverse Studios

Plattchen - Twist 'n Paint
Developer: Bplus

Title TBA
Developer: System 3

Title 2 TBA
Developer: System 3

Title TBA
Developer: Pronto Games

Title TBA
Developer: GarageGamess

Multiple projects
Developer: Alten8

At the very least 15+ WiiWare titles and counting (we already know Nintendo for one is doing a lot more than Pokemon Farm and Dr. Mario, I mean.. come on).
As far as I know, each and every one of these titles is geared toward the launch of WiiWare that is coming to Japan in march 2008.

Monster Hunter 3 Wii announced

Monster Hunter is one of the more populair Sony franchises in Japan right now and was previously Sony exclusive. Monster Hunter 3 was announced exclusively 2 YEARS ago for the PS3, untill today. The PS3 version is removed from the officia site off Capcom (which probably means that it's cancelled altogether). On this moment Monster Hunter 3 is exclusive for Wii.

Yes everyone has seen all of this by now.And no Nintendo didn't do very good IMO.They added a character to Brawl, showed new Galaxy screens and showed off abunch of casual console sellers like Wii Fit and more Mario spinoffs.Oh and lets not forget the almight Monster Hunter 3.Seriously I'm ready for some big time games already Nintendo.The Wii hasn't been any better than the Gamecube was IMO.

Finally we've arrived at the time everyone had predicted 6 months ago. Dev's getting a better understanding of the wii, thus creating better and more applicable games. This is good news for wii owners as the market will continue growing in Japan and the rest of the world, especially here in NA. Microsoft is going to okay as it has it's hardcore gamers to depend on, however sony on the other hand will have to do alot of of work especially after losing about half their japanese market. Yes to them one game does make a difference. Wii60 never sounded so good.

Sadly thats all the majority of Nintendo's consumers are open to.That's why games like Killer 7 and Eternal Darkness flop in sales.And even Metroid underachieves in sales.

The pics for Disaster seem like one of the most "mature" titles Nintendo has ever made.Let's hope it turns out well.

I think he'd rather see Nintendo concentrate on making good new franchises and stop making 39 Mario games per console.Most Nintendo fans would like that.

Many people fail to realise that Nintendo makes new franchises all the time but the one they always remember is mario games because the other franchises don't stay in people's mind. Like pikmin, wiisports, excitruck, disaster, battalion wars, ect.

Nintendo are (or were before games like Pikmin and BW were already released) making new "franchises." They're trying their hand at sport games, for example. Would those games be any better without Mario and with a new set of characters? How about the Wii line of games? Would those be any better without Miis? The thing with Nintendo is they have a franchise for just about every genre of game out there. I don't see the need to make a new, say, platformer on top of their already established franchises.

Battalion Wars was too kiddie.It had potential to be a good action game but the style and presentation didn't take the nature of the genre serious at all.Pikmin is also kiddie.Wii Sports is bad IMO.I'd much rather play a real sports title over that or Mario sports games.Excite Truck was just a bad game, plain and simple.As for Disaster, I just hope this one turns out as good as it looks.

o.O Mario is not like 80 percent. I mean you got Kart, Stadium and probably a few others, but skimmed to all of it, and that is just incorrect, sir.

Many people fail to realise that Nintendo makes new franchises all the time but the one they always remember is mario games because the other franchises don't stay in people's mind. Like pikmin, wiisports, excitruck, disaster, battalion wars, ect.

Pikmin is still in my mind.

Yep, its the Milking process, Mario this, Mario That, mini games. I miss the Nintendo that madeSNES console, it was much much better.

Battalion Wars was too kiddie.It had potential to be a good action game but the style and presentation didn't take the nature of the genre serious at all.Pikmin is also kiddie.Wii Sports is bad IMO.I'd much rather play a real sports title over that or Mario sports games.Excite Truck was just a bad game, plain and simple.As for Disaster, I just hope this one turns out as good as it looks.

The point is they make new franchises, some sell well others don't. End of story. Being Kiddie has nothing to do with how well a game sells. Look at pokemon, it's a relatively new franchise compared to mario, it's kiddy, and sells millions.

Nintendo are (or were before games like Pikmin and BW were already released) making new "franchises." They're trying their hand at sport games, for example. Would those games be any better without Mario and with a new set of characters? How about the Wii line of games? Would those be any better without Miis? The thing with Nintendo is they have a franchise for just about every genre of game out there. I don't see the need to make a new, say, platformer on top of their already established franchises.

Every game Nintendo makes now seems like something from a children's book.N64 was a console with PERFECT balance.You had the best console FPS's around in Goldeneye 007, Perfect Dark, Turok, and stuff like that.Conker was great, Resident Evil 2, Mortal Kombat, and many others.Plus they had all their games like Mario Party and Pokemon to keep their family image.Now there's almost nothing but family games.

The pics for Disaster seem like one of the most "mature" titles Nintendo has ever made.Let's hope it turns out well.

It has to do with terrorists and natural disasters hitting the US. Very scary and interesting. End of the world type stuff. :)

Some games have that hidden element of gameplay that doesn't need blood and gore to be great. Advanced wars is a good example of this.

I believe you just gave nintendo an Idea for their next games. I wish they could focus on serious projects and stop milking a character dozens of times. Nintendo is the oldest gaming name currently and all they have as Iconic figures is Mario, Zelda, Samus.

Those are NOT made by Nintendo, and 2 of those franchises are on Wii already.

In reply to cobrax80, Pokemon sells to the same audience that buys nothing but games like Mario Party, Wii Play, and Mario sports titles.Nintendo is basicially making all their games torwards 1 demographic, they have enough for that demographic, they need to make games for different types of games aswell.

Lots of the games you mentioned are 2nd- and 3rd-party. I don't see what's wrong with Nintendo sticking with their family-oriented image of games while letting other parties handle the blood and guts. It's not like Sony and Microsoft develop dozens of games themselves to cater to everyone. Besides, I don't see what "kiddy" and "mature" have to do with whether or not Nintendo makes new franchises, or 80% of their games star Mario.

I can't wait for Disaster and SMG. Disaster looks to be one of the most interesting Wii titles.BioShockOwnz

if all goes well i think disaster may be one of 2008's best games.

it has an awesome idea behind it, a fantastic dev team, and nintendo helping with develpoment/costs is only a good thing. so much potential in this game, can't waitto seegameplay footage.

I know they weren't first party but Nintendo had RARE so they had a big time company making more mature themed games for them.It's their fault that they didn't have anything in place for hardcore gamers once RARE left.

They havent had enoug time yet?.....Samus,Zelda,Mario Existed in the NES era. It seems like theyre just focused on making more re-runs, instead of anew franchise.
