I certainly want a good racing game on my Wii, so with this and NfS Nitro announced, there are at least two to keep an eye on.



Currently Playing: Skies of Arcadia Legends (GC), Dragon Quest IV (DS)

Last Game beaten: The Rub Rabbits(DS)

What a stupid name to call a racing game.



^^agree

plus the futuristic racers



“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.

Looks like the first was a PC game released in 2005. That is about all I know.

I'm certain the game will be cheap-ass shovelware.
When a developer announces that "the game will take full advantage of Wii Remote", they are doing a game that's controls are just made for the sake of the controller. Now that they have the idea of the controller, they put their worst shovelware game out and think it will sell. Basically the game will be a port of the original with new control methods.

Well, it's their loss.

Nintendo games sell only on Nintendo system.

maybe this will be the next AAA game, what do you guys know?



I agree, looks like shovelware to me (and I mean actual shovelware, not what some seem to class as shovelware like Carnival games, which isn't shovelware)

The mention of "many more to come" is the giveaway in my opinion.... it means they probably have about 10 cheap games with very little content in the pipes already like the "popcorn" series of games.



Thanks Megaman79.. http://www.vgchartz.com/forum/thread.php?id=58562 :P

i remember when miyamoto ceased production of a game because he didnt like the idea of guns on cars... anyone else know about that? cos im sure it happened.

in other words the game wont work because miyamoto said so :P

Yeah I remember and I know you are wrong :P

Miyamoto cancelled that project at Retro Studio because when asked why there was guns on car nobody at Retro can give a proper answer.

In the end Nintendo cancelled all Retro projects and made them focus only on one title that become Metroid Prime.
