The look didn’t change. It’s still a gorgeous looking Wii game, but now it’s in English! I hear there’s a possibility of online play and new characters for the North American release, but nothing concrete yet.
In the meantime, enjoy these:
Tatsunoko vs Capcom: Ultimate All-Stars is coming exclusively to the Nintendo Wii in Winter 2009/2010.
Two pieces of good news today.
First, 3D Realms isn’t dead. The Duke Nukem developer lost funding and had to let go the development team behind Duke Nukem Forever which explains all the work being posted by employees. 3D Realms is now a much smaller studio and hopes to continue licensing and co-creating games based on Duke Nukem. Hopefully, some brave studio will pick up the pieces and continue creating bad ass games with Duke!
Next piece of good news comes courtesy of Nintendo Power and Capcom. Tatsunoko vs Capcom is braving the licensing storm and making its way to the west. Capcom confirmed “Mystery Game #1” via their blog today. There are rumors that this Wii fighter will be boasting new features such as online play and of course Capcom is tight lipped about it.
Not a lot of brand new, super fantastic reveals, but a fair bit of impressions and info popped up. If you noticed, there are a lot of fighting game related tidbits below and that’s somewhat on purpose. There was just a lot of talk, info and media of the upcoming fighting games.
As always, more stuff will be tacked on as I find them.
The latest Tatsunoko vs Capcom trailer brings back so many memories. From the announcer’s “Deadly Rave” to the over-the-top action. All sorely missed and watching the trailer doesn’t exactly satiate the desire to play the game.
Do I see Megaman?! Yes, I do!
Yeah, Nintendo had a press conference today where they announced the Nintendo DSi amongst other things. And here are the other things!
Let’s start off witht his game montage. See if you can pick out the interesting bits.
This week’s Famitsu magazine was quite informative. An anticipated fighter gets a release date,
Tatsunoko vs Capcom – December 11th – Nintendo Wii
Really?! For the Wii? I presume it will support Classic Controllers, but what about GameCube controllers? And what about the PS3 and Xbox 360 versions? I know the Wii is selling like rice over there, but c’mon!
White Knight Chronicles: Pulse of the Ancients – December 25th – PlayStation 3
Finally! WKC has a release date. Even if it’s just for Japan.
Level 5’s White Knight Chronicles was first seen over two years ago and it was quite impressive then. However, I don’t know much about it. In fact, all I know is that boasts huge armored mechs, it’s a JRPG and it’s coming exclusively for the PS3. It’s not my fault either, it’s just that Level 5 and Sony have been very hush hush about this title.
Monster Hunter 3 Playable At TGS
The Monster Hunter series is huge in Japan. It sells PSPs like how Wii Sports sold/sells Wii’s in America. Me? I never played a single game from this Japanese loved franchise. I guess fans will be glad to know that the third Wii exclusive installment of Monster Hunter will be playable at the Tokyo Game Show later next month.
Damn the licensing issues which will hinder a North American release. Especially after they’ve brought it to the EVO2K8 fighting game tournament. Anyways, 1UP wrote up some impressions and recorded some great footage.
