Wii Thread 4.0, WEEUWEEUWEEUWEE!

the miyamoto live blog is getting ready to start

Well, Punch Out, Excite Truck/Bots and Metroid Prime were all done by outside studios, and I think that made the games even better. So its not so far fetched, and I think this is great news.

New Super Mario Bros. Screens from IGN (Sonichuman probably already posted these) seem to confirm that Yoshi is in the game, you can carry others when flying in the propeller suit, and there’s some kind of penguin suit in the game. Also, I saw another screen elsewhere that confirms that the Koopa Kids are in the game.

According to the Miyamoto Live Blog: new Zelda for Wii is being worked on. He’ll probably announce it next year. Might use WM+ depending on how well it does, but he wants to bring in swordplay and archery.

that’s all new stuff…really so far from it the live blog. It was interesting but not really full of as much info as liked. Miyamoto also confirmed no online for New Super Mario Bros. because the hardware was already getting bogged down as it was. errrr…I must be missing something here…

oh well…back to posting stuff!

Swordfighting and golf are two of the best WM+ applications I can currently think of. I look forward to a sword fighting game with good WM+ applications. Truthfully the most annoying thing about Twilight Princes was getting Link to attack when and in the way you wanted him to. Maybe now it’ll be more intuitive.

BTW: Has there ever, or will there ever be a dual Wii mote game? I’m sure a healthy % of Wii owners have at least two of them anyway, and there could be some badass applications if applied properly. Could you imagine a Mech warrior game with dual WM+?

Something also of note about the live blog is that Miyamoto stated that they were pretty far along in galaxy 2. Apparently they want to hold it back regardless because of New Super Mario Bros. and release Galaxy 2 next year. Kinda saddened by that but I understand it fully from a business point of view.

If you want to go to the info straight about zelda then here:

not much though…but I’m sure most of us will be fine with the stuff that’s coming out now anyway

That’s exactly what I was hoping to hear, about the Motion Plus swordfighting. This is more exciting than Street Fighter IV being made and released in the last year+

Ok I’m going out on a limb, Zelda Wii gets fully revealed sometime in 2010, probably at next year’s E3, and its release will not be until fall 2011, about 1.5 years after its reveal, thus 2.5 years from now. It seems to not be as far along in development as I thought, maybe perhaps about where Twilight Princess was when that game was revealed at E3 2004, before it had the subtitle Twilight Princess-- When it was just known as mature Zelda for GameCube.

Anyway games like Zelda Wii and Dragon Quest X will keep Wii going until 2011-2012, by 2012 it’ll be time for Wii2 / Wii HD / Super Wii / whatever Nintendo’s next-gen console is ultimately called.

Whoa. Who got axed? I’m guessing a Tat character due to American ownership? Who is getting added? Is anyone from DMC?

EDIT: Holy shit! I just watched that trailer for New Super Mario Bros Wii… That is instantly already the best Mario game ever. 4P simultaneous co-op? Classic style level design? Yoshi? A cool new iceball power up? Oh yes, instant best Mario ever.

Since the wii motion plus can detect rotational movements now in the next Zelda I want to be able to stab and twist Link’s sword whenever he impales an enemy. Make sure that wound can’t be closed, have it count as an instant kill. Make it happen Shiggy.

Daimao was basically a lighter skinned Mr. Popo style design which is probably why he appears to be the only one that got the cut. Daimao.

I’m not all that sad to see him go myself. If I had found that he actually was fun to play, I’d feel horrible using him against anybody except the computer.

Sin and Punishment is fire. I’ll be waiting on that. SMBWii is great as well. I’m loving the Penguin joint. Hopefully some connectivity with the DS version. Metroid: Other M is PURE SEX!!! I’m hyped as fucked for that. I’m just glad to see Samus’ classic gameplay taken into a bold new direction. And Miyamoto with the Zelda X MotionPlus has me way too excited. I really wanna see this bold new Link and everything else that comes with it.

positive but they reported on some things they didn’t like so much about it so far including a cam that’s too shaky and they said the game so far looks like it’s being rushed. Hopefully they can polish it before release.

I’m sceptic of that actually…I’m sure Galaxy 2 is going to be awesome but there sounds like a lot of good stuff across all the consoles is lined up for 2010. The game being noimnated though? No doubts on that.

For me, yes.

…unfortunately, it’ll lose to COD4 officially.

Mario Galaxy 2 Trailer

The news that Mario Galaxy 2 would only be 90% new worried me at first. But I remember feeling in the first game that I still wanted to explore some of those Galaxies, so new objectives will be cool with me.

You get hoes throwed at you. What other game gives you that shit on demand? Travis Touchdown for President in 2012!!!

You know, I have yet to play NMH1. Is that any good? I saw a vid of it, and it was just 15 straight minutes of spamming the attack button and slashing through mindless groups of baddies. It seemed boring, repetitive and uninspired.
