Wiimix

A group called “ROBOTOBOTS” has taken some of the best songs off of the Wii hardware (Shop, Forecast, and Mii channel music) and remixed them up for us. You can listen to and download the remixes here. Which one is your favourite?

Rumour: Rockstar Table Tennis to Wii

Monday, May 7th, 2007

Rockstar Table Tennis

Falafelkid, in his popular Nintendo gaming blog, has stated that Rockstar Table Tennis Rockstar’s first game on the Wii. This seems like a no-brainer to me considering how well-received the Tennis part of Wii Sports was. The Wii’s controls would fit perfectly with the game. Hopefully, this will open the door for other Rockstar games to come to the Wii.

Rumour: NOA Headquaters Moving?

Monday, May 7th, 2007

NOA HQ

Nintendo of America is currently stationed in Redmond, WA right next to… Microsoft HQ! So, there are rumours going around that the current setup is not amicable and that Nintendo is considering moving its headquarters to either San Francisco (home of E3) or New York (home of the Nintendo World Store). Apparently employees were internally told that they could vote for one of the two locations or be let go. They should get big trucks with the Nintendo logo on the side for when they move! That’d be so cool…

RE4 Wii Cheap

Monday, May 7th, 2007

RE4

The Resident Evil 4 remake that is coming soon for the Wii will be wonderfully value-priced at $29.99 US (or ~ $34.99 CDN). The remake version will feature all of the best aspects that the game had on other platforms: the GameCube graphics updated into 16×9 progressive scan ratio, all of the PS2 version extras, additional extra missions, and Wii controls. The game is supposed to run very well on the Wii, and is the definitive version of the game.

Goldeneye Still Has A Chance

007 Goldeneye

A representative of Rare recently stated in an interview that it is still possible that Goldeneye 007 could come to either the Virtual Console or XBLA (X-box Live Arcade), or both. The rights surrounding this game are incredibly complicated, but we can always hope that we’ll see the game again. If this game were to come to either download service, it would surely sell millions of “copies”.

Wiicrophones Coming

Monday, May 7th, 2007

It's a microphone, okay?

There are two upcoming games for the Wii that will utilize USB microphones. One is High School Musical from Disney Interactive, and the other is the Wii-exclusive Boogie from EA. I’d really like to see some wireless microphone usage in some first-party Wii games, but we’ll have to wait and see what the future holds.

Monday, May 7th, 2007

Sir Shigeru Miyamoto

A new interview with Shigeru Miyamoto, creator of most things associated with Nintendo, recently gave an interview to Entertainment Weekly in which he discusses many topics like the lukewarm sales of Twilight Princess in Japan, as well has his ability to make games along the lines of Halo, but his choice not to. It’s an interesting read.
