Oh, so this is Nintendo EAD after all?

Really doesn't feel like something of theirs. Needs a bit more personality, i guess?


What games have they done before?

Er, everything.

Nintendo EAD is what you're actually thinking of when people say "developed by Nintendo." There are 6 or 7 teams spread between two studios, EAD 1 through EAD 5, then two EAD Tokyo teams. EAD 3, for instance, always does Zelda games. EAD 5 was formed for Wii Fit and is a temporary team for its sequels, may be moving on to QoL or something. EAD Tokyo has handled the "main" 3D Mario games post-Sunshine (Galaxy and the 3D ____ games)

Oh... So how does it not look like a Nintendo game? It definitely has the charm. To me personally at least.

I imagine the problem is we haven't seen single player, so there is a lack of "reason".  

Looks fun but why are they doing this, why should I care etc.

It also needs 2v2 local multiplayer! 4 Wii Remotes/Pro Controllers/Classic Controllers, with someone using the GamePad for something else!

I'd also love it if you get to chat with your team on the online for a couple of minutes to make a strategy!


That would actually be hard to do given how the game controls.  While optional, the ideal control method is a hybrid between gyro controls and the analog sticks.  You also use the touch screen for some stuff as well.

edit: 2 Gamepad controls or finding some kind of work-around is possible.  I'm just saying it obviously wont be the easiest thing to implement.

Don't the pro controllers have gyros in them? I think they do.

Hmmm, if they do that makes it a little easier but still ignores the touch screen problem.

Nope, I was wrong. They don't have any motion sensors in the pros... or at least I can't find anything about it online.

Great to hear it'll have single player as well!



I'm on Twitter @DanneSandin!

Furthermore, I think VGChartz should add a "Like"-button.

Actually there is no problem. The person with the gamepad can still use the map on the screen and split screen On the TV. According to the developers, You can use gyroscope to aim or the right stick so the person with the pro controller can use the right stick to aim. In regards to the map and touch screen, the map can be displayed on tv with no problem. The touch screen is used to jump to a teammates postion. If i am not mistaken, they showed no use of the Dpad. They can probably use the Dpad to teleport. Up goes to ther further up player. Left to further left player. right to further right player. Simple.
