Forums - Nintendo - Kizuna a SOTC copy!

Nintendo is NOT DEVELOPING THE GAME!

For god's sake, they're called 3RD PARTIES and Nintendo has no control over what they do.



"I mean, c'mon, Viva Pinata, a game with massive marketing, didn't sell worth a damn to the "sophisticated" 360 audience, despite near-universal praise--is that a sign that 360 owners are a bunch of casual ignoramuses that can't get their heads around a 'gardening' sim? Of course not. So let's please stop trying to micro-analyze one game out of hundreds and using it as the poster child for why good, non-1st party, games can't sell on Wii. (Everyone frequenting this site knows this is nonsense, and yet some of you just can't let it go because it's the only scab you have left to pick at after all your other "Wii will phail1!!1" straw men arguments have been put to the torch.)" - exindguy on Boom Blocks

Hopefully this doesn't run at 5 FPS like SotC did.



Tag - "No trolling on my watch!"

I really wish people would call it Ougon no Kizuna. This is like calling "God of War", "War".

They're not very much identical at all.

The only similarities it draws to SotC is that is also has large bosses (one with fur), and you also have to hit their weak points for massive damage. It begins and ends there.

 

thats pretty much everything in shadow of the colossus.

also big monster fur used in the boss points the idea was taken from it.

 

 

But that's not everything in Kizuna.

 

SotC lives and dies on one fundemental idea. You can't just say "anyone that uses this idea from now on is ripping Team ICO off." Inspired by, yes. Copycatting, no.

 

Oh, and only one of the two bosses we know about so far has fur.



 

is that tiny blurb the whole article? man I can only trust such a well written piece of news.

I see my prediction of Wii getting the most JRPG was true (again). And the very good ones from 3rd parties are coming too.
I know it because damage controls has started in other Wii JRPG threads and this one too.
