Q&A:
RTS for Wii? Developers afraid of genre on console.
Disaster has European release date, American date should be coming up according to them. Keep waiting. New screens are not impressive.
Sonic unleashed has not appeared as Wii, other versions choppy.
Rune Factory Wii Q1 09? Looks better than Harvest Moon Wii.
Lost in Blue Wii looks painful.
Preview build of Animal Crossing may come really close to release date.
Most anticipated Wiiware: Animales de la muerte, world of goo, strong bad, Hudson games, lost winds 2.
Factor 5? Heard nothing new since E3.Might be afraid of Matt.
FPS looking forward to beside Conduit: Call of Duty
RE2 Wiimake bogus so far.
Want Wii to go same route as DS in genre and game variety and depth
GOTY for Wii so far: Smash bros brawl
Custom Robo on Wii? Little hope.
Excited for Tales for Symphonia: Dawn…
Force Unleashed looking good
Talk about summaries of podcasts (haha), comment on people that hate it
Mushroom Men controls have not changed, waggle is not quite right.
Most Anticipated DS game for 2009: Moon, Castlevania: OoE, Rune Factory
Strongbad interview
Actually with Strongbad, entertaining
2nd Episode, similar to 1st
If you are into Strongbad, listen to this interview, 60% of the way through.
Story: King of Town is taken down by Strongbad.
Conduit interview with chief creative officer, senior designer, and lead artist
Development stage: pre-alpha stage, 6 months ahead of refinement.
Publisher talk? Announcement may be coming in the next month. Be excited, they say.
May have a sequel in the works.
Feedback is helping in development process.
Interactive interface, controls are customizable.
Run speed tweakable, have been working on it since E3.
LAN play possible, not official.
3 preliminary online modes, they want more.
Short term goal of 16 people online/lan. Game held up well.
Want game to run at solid 30 fps all the time.
Stands out from other FPSs by control. Feels like new way of interfacing with FPS.
They are set on making a good experience, that does FPS on Wii right.
AI has stepped up even from PAX.
Motion +, Wii Speak: they get development kits in Sept, and will play around possibilities. Wii Speak is more possible at this point, but they will know when they get their hands on it.
Scope mode has been added.
Dynamic lighting is in.
Co-op mode is being explored. Split-screen is difficult with the graphics, resolution. Probably not going to happen.
Developer blog on IGN coming soon.
