Just looked it up and that is a rating for a Wiiware game. I didn't see any screenshots or videos of it.So it is best to wait till GDC.

If its indeed a Nintendo title then this might be the first time in a few months that Nintendo has released a first party Wii Ware title.

And yes, that rumor about those Nintendo franchises returning SHOULD be taken with a GIANT grain of salt. The rumor just sounds like a fanboy's wet dream come true, and Nintendo isn't that eager to please (in the past maybe, but not today).

It's a legit game being made by Giles Goddard. Name ring a bell? The guy was a developer on Super Mario 64 and the studio, Vitei,  is the team behind 1080 and Doshin the Giant.

Stratos I know it is a legit game. I was more or less responding to Flames as if it was a Ice Climbers game.

Look the rumor I posted on the previous page stated that the Ice Climbers and a few others would be shown at GDC. I said that stuff about videos and screenshots because aside from the ESRB rating there wasn't any pictures of who the protaginists are so I'm not sure if this Rock N Roll Climbing will star the Ice Climbers!

What rumor? Oh, you mean as a rail shooter?
Carmine Red, Associate Editor

A glooming peace this morning with it brings;
The sun, for sorrow, will not show his head:
Go hence, to have more talk of these sad things;
Some shall be pardon'd, and some punished:
For never was a story of more woe
Than this of Sega and her Mashiro.

Yeah, that seems to be about it on the Wii horizon. Though I did find some compelling arguments from a technical standpoint that the Wii could graphically handle Bioshock sans the high rendered textures. The Wii's tested specs fit within the range of the minimum PC requirements for Bioshock.

I've played Bioshock on a PC meeting the minimum requirements, and trust me...you don't want to see what that looks or plays like.  We'd be better off seeing them make a whole new Bioshock or Bioshock-type game ground-up on Wii.

The rumor popped up because 2K Boston, 2K Australia and 2K Marin are looking for developers who have Wii,PS3,X360 experience.

It looks good enough, the trouble is that the framerate is in the single digits and you need some precision aiming in combat.

Yeah, the framerate is what I was really getting at.  You fire off a round of any weapon when the screen has 2 or more enemies, the screen pauses, and 2-3 seconds later you find out if you hit anything.  Yeah, that made massive firefights REAL fun...

A new Ubisoft rumor says that Beyond Good and Evil 2 might see release on Wii after all

Michel Ancel mentions that no console was mentioned when the game debuted and to not rule out the Wii just yet.

New Play Control: Beyond Good and Evil. That's what we are getting instead.

They better not cheap out and throw us a NPC.
BG&E & Psychonauts should get a Wiimake if anything and after the success that would be seen, it would be stupid to not bring the sequel to the Wii. *coughcoughRE5coughcough*

NPC games are fine as long as they supplement new games, but if that's all we get then that is absolutely not fine.

Quote from:  Matt Cassamassina - IGN
During the show, there were all sorts of companies showing off Wii MotionPlus, from AiLive to countless developers, all fascinated by the device. No major revelations about the technology itself, but one interesting tidbit did come up a couple times. Namely, that MotionPlus might ship infused inside of a jacket and cannot be removed. A perma-Wii remote condom, if you will. Bad news if you hate the Wii rubber because, if true, you will have to use one if you want to play games with MotionPlus, plain and simple. Although I have never been a fan of the controller jackets, I can see the logic. Novice gamers, flailing around wildly as they try to play tennis, have already demonstrated that they can't be trusted in close proximity to TVs and walls. If Nintendo adds in yet another detachable component into the equation, these same players might accidentally blow themselves up.

Sounds like  good idea to me. no need to redistribute 50 million more extended Wiimote condoms for free.
might as well pack it in & attach it for good.

Wouldn't it be possible to cut the device out of its condom and still be able to use it?

Depends on how they attach the M+ to the condom.
What if the M+ is held on by the condom.
What if the M+ isn't encased in plastic and then the condom, but just the condom

But either way, it doesn't bother me at all if it is attached like that.
the only real issue would be future peripherals wouldn't be able to use M+

I think it's wrong for Lotion Puss to be embedded in condoms.

I wonder if M+ will be compatible with Nyko's unauthorized controller and/or accessories. If not, I wonder if they'll just make their own alternative.
