Dear Reader:
Nintendo Power July issue
CodenameRevolution has info from the latest Nintendo Power. Check out some of the bigger stories below direct from their article, then click the link to read the rest. Thanks MeteoraTC!
The 17-Page Blowout on Wii information starts off with screenshots and little previews of numerous games. Super Mario Galaxy, Metroid Prime 3: Corruption, Project H.A.M.M.E.R, Smash Bros, Warioware: Smooth Moves, Excite Truck, Zelda: TP, Disaster: Day of Crisis and has small info on WiiConnect24 which mentioned load times and daily updates etc.
Very small feature on Medal of Honor: Airborne. There is one small screenshot but it looks really good and the game may have some great lighting. The game is slated for a Fall 2006 release. The game is about members of the 82nd and 101st Airborn divisions in Operation Husky in Sicily, Italy
Nintendo Power interviews Tomb Raider creator Toby Gard. When asked about Wii he replied “To be honest with you, I don’t know an awful lot about (Wii). I haven’t got any of the inside scoops yet. (Laughs) It would certainly be interesting to see what we could do with the mostion sensor on the controller. And I think that always the strength with Nintendo is their interface, how they always innovate on the interface with the game. But of course, it’s something I’m interested in investigating. I’m a huge fan of Nintendo. It’s always been sort of a dream of mine to work with Nintendo.”
Nintendo Power was asked about NiGHTS and they had the following to say: “Actually, if there’s any existing franchise that seems tailer-made for Wii, it’s NiGHTS. Rumors from Japan suggest that such a game is in development, but Sega of America denies its existence. We’ll keep buggin’ em.”
