Site Issues....Yet Again...NEW SITE!

I first want to thank all of you who have put up with our site issues as of late. It has been both annoying and time consuming with minimal results. I have no idea what happened to our banner and our side buttons that link you to the podcasts and forums. Believe me I have tried everything and blogger hasn't been all that helpful.

With that being said, I would like to present to you what Kmaxx and I have been working on so diligently....

Gamers I give to you.......

Keep in mind gamers that this is a beta version of the new site and will likely change in the near future. No this is not an April Fools joke. This has been in the works for literally months now and I can't think of a better time to announce this.

I thank you all again for your continued patience and please enjoy the new site. It's the same GameOn, just in a newer, sleeker skin. Enjoy!

King of Clubs Trailer

Below if the official press release of this newly announced humorous game, King of Clubs. I'm still not sure what to make of the game.

The sun blazes down relentlessly here in the Nevada desert. Route 66 is nearby but not that many cars pass this way. You could say it’s rather deserted…but all that is set to change because Big Bubba, the state’s leading entrepreneur is about to transform this less than lively location into a thriving tourist attraction!

He may not have big bucks to invest but he’s got plenty of imagination and drive. This summer, this hot and dusty corner of the USA will become Nevada’s No.1 holiday hot spot!

But y’know, you can’t be too careful. Big Bubba has had one hell of an idea for drawing those tourists and their greenbacks into his new business venture, so he’d be crazy to risk some other wheeler-dealer copying his brainchild. Therefore for now, he’s going to be uncharacteristically tight-lipped about the exact nature of Nevada’s biggest and brightest tourist attraction!

This is the setting for King of Clubs - a fun and engaging trick-based action puzzle game. The game’s distinctive vintage Americana graphics and soundtrack, along with its appealingly humorous multiplayer mode should make it one of this summer’s surprise hits. The game has 96 levels, including 10 multi-level challenges, plus bonus areas, and offers hours of game play and a host of gadgets.

Big Bubba will of course, in the fullness of time, reveal more about Nevada’s hottest tourist attraction and this Summer’s most unusual game – he recommends that you watch out for more information on his latest business venture.

King of Clubs is due to be published for the Wii™,, PlayStation®2 and PC on 20th July 2007 by Oxygen Games™. PSP® (Playstation®portable) system

and Nintendo DS™ system versions will follow and will retail at £24.99 for all formats.

Matt C Update, Sega and Nintendo Olympics Online?

IGN'snon-charismatic Matt C had the following to say about today's newly announced joint venture between Nintendo and Sega....Be sure to read the middle part of the statement.

I think some of you were expecting a Mario and Sonic platformer of some sort, but really, this title makes much more sense to me. It is, when you break it down, Wii Sports + Olympics + Mario + Sonic + online. What the hell is not to like about that? This game could very well be the next biggest thing since Wii Sports. Do not downplay its existence. If it is done right, it could be one of Wii's best-sellers of the year.

Online play huh? Thanks Matt.

Super Paper Mario= Crazy Delicious!

We all knew that the inevitable triumphant return of every one's favorite plumber Mario was no doubt going to be phenomenal. A lot of the gaming community has focused their attention on Mario's return to 3-dimensions while watching the unbelievable trailer for the much anticipated Super Mario Galaxy. I can't say that I blame them too. However gamers, we mustn't forget that we are getting a brand new Mario title in a matter of weeks.

Enter Super Paper Mario; a title in my opinion has been much overlooked up until recently. The lucky guys over at Computer and Video games have recently sat down and played the new Mario title and were absolutely blown away at the games mechanics.

The article also goes on to state that the game is "Simply brilliant - and one of the best games we've ever played". Strong words from the website, but did we really expect anything less?

Look for the king of the videogame world to take back his thrown come next month. Game On.

SEGA AND NINTENDO JOIN FORCES FOR MARIO & SONIC AT THE OLYMPIC GAMES

The headline says it all gamers. Read the official announcement below and get ready for an awesome game come holiday time! Also, click here for the official site!

TOKYO (March 28, 2007) - SEGA® Corporation and Nintendo Co. Ltd. today made a historical announcement that two of the biggest icons in the entertainment industry, Mario™ and Sonic™, are joining forces to star in Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games. Developed for the Wii™ video game system and the Nintendo DS™ system, this momentous agreement marks the first time these two renowned stars have appeared together in a game.

Published by SEGA across Europe and North America, and published by Nintendo in the Japanese market, Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games will be available for Holiday 2007 and is licensed through a worldwide partnership with International Sports Multimedia (ISM), the exclusive interactive entertainment software licensee of the International Olympic Committee (IOC).

In Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games, players will compete in events that take place in environments based on the official venues of the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games. Using a supporting cast of characters from the amazing worlds of both Mario and Sonic, gamers will be able to compete as or against a range of lovable personalities including Mario, Sonic, Luigi™, Knuckles™, Yoshi®, Tails™ and more. Innovative usage of the Wii and DS control systems to maneuver a favorite character will allow players to race the likes of Mario and Sonic down the 100m track, engage in exhilarating rallies in table tennis and churn water in a swimming heat, all while competing for the much sought after gold medal.

"We are thrilled to partner with Nintendo and ISM on this groundbreaking title," said Hisao Oguchi, President and Chief Operating Officer, SEGA Corporation. "For the first time, two of the world's greatest games' characters come together to compete in the world's greatest sporting event and we couldn't be more excited."

"Mario and Sonic have been respectful rivals since the early days of video games," says Shigeru Miyamoto, Senior Managing Director and General Manager, Entertainment Analysis and Development Division, Nintendo Co., Ltd.. "In fact, for a long time they have been discussing the possibility of one day competing against each other. Now that they have been given the perfect opportunity to meet at the Olympic Games, we may finally learn who is actually faster, Mario or Sonic?"

"The Olympic Games represent the true spirit of competition and passion," said Raymond Goldsmith, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of ISM. "Bringing together intensely competitive and fun characters like Mario and Sonic in an Olympic setting helps showcase the sports of the Olympic Games in a new and compelling way for all generations."

With the recent praise given to Nintendo's 5th console Wii by Simpson's writer J. Stewart Burns, one would only assume that everyone's favorite animated family would be hitting the Wii.

A Slew Of Wii Rumors

Here is something to help you get through these slow news days. Fellow blogger Falafelkid has recently posted a slew of rumors that he so nicely translated from the Spanish Website Revogamers. Everything from the successor to the DS, to new VC games are discussed. Enjoy the read below.

GameBoy successor cancelled

Nintendo had been working on the ´Gameboy Advance Next´ which was to become a third pillar (alongside the Wii as a home console and the DS as a portable). The handheld was to feature hardware comparable in power to that of the GameCube.

It was to offer online gaming and downloadable titles, do away with physical media altogether and be compatible with the Virtual Console. Apparently, concerns over media storage and too high a price point caused the project to be scrapped.

DS successor in the works

Nintendo is working on ´Project 3´ which is to become the successor of the DS. It will be a handheld console without buttons. Instead, it is just one big touchscreen, comparable to Apple´s ´iPhone´.

New Miyamoto IP

Miyamoto is working on a new IP on a similar scale to Zelda. It is codenamed ´The Rise of Darkness´.

It is said to be an online-only title, perhaps an MMO. Miyamoto wants every day to be different in the game. An older rumour on the same site pointed to a game that mixed elements of the real world with science fiction and spritual elements, loosely inspired by Buddhism. Gameplay-wise it was described as mixture between Zelda and Shenmue.

Nintendo developing MMO

More talk about an online game, codenamed ´Project Live´. This sounds very much like an MMO. It is said to be a big city, in which you can kidnap players from another team and leave clues for them to find you. No word on whether this is connected to Miyamoto´s new IP.

Miis used in future games

´Animal Crossing´ on Wii will be based on Miis, ´Mario Party 8´ and even the Wii version of ´Mario Kart´ might feature them, as well.

More channels coming

The next Wii system update will feature both a ´Movie Channel´ and a ´Talk Channel´. No further information is given other than the names. Also, there will be some improvements to the ´Mii Channel´, as far as I can make out.

Brain training may become dedicated channel

Some talk about a game that is based on the Latin phrase ´Mens sana in corpore sano´ (Latin for: ´a healthy mind in a healthy body´). This sounds very much like Braining Training or Big Brain Academy. Apparently, this could become a channel of its own.

Wii mic takes shape

The Wii microphone will plug into the controller, just like the Nunchuk extension.

N64 blockbuster titles coming to VC

´GoldenEye 007´ and ´Donkey Kong 64´ will make their appearance on the Virtual Console this year. Apparently, the contracts between Nintendo and developer Rare work in Nintendo´s favour. It looks as if no other Rare games will become available, though.

Also, ´Star Fox 64´ (aka Lylat Wars), Ganbare Goemon (aka Legend of the Mystical Ninja) and ´Mischief Makers´ will make it to the Virtual Console soon.

Support Too Much of the Wrong Kind?

When reader SHVITZEL talks, Gameonrevolution listens! If you are an avid Gameonrevolution visitor, you probably know Shvitzel from our forums. If not, you don't know what you are missing. Below is his dissection of the kind of support that the Wii has seen thus far its short life cycle. Enjoy the read and thanks to SHVITZEL again for the editorial. Game ON.

Support is an interesting concept and one of much discussion around here. People often look at third parties and try to determine whether or not the Wii is getting enough support or the right kind. Well, here are my two cents on the topic of:
Third Party Support

Support can be defined by many qualities, but one thing remains constant when defining the word: support: to maintain or advocate; to uphold by aid; to maintain by supplying with things necessary for existence Support is many things, but essentially, it is maintaining something, holding something up, whether that be when things aren’t going so well, or when help is needed most....oh, say, like right after and during a home console launch. And currently, Nintendo is definitely getting support from all over, especially third parties. In fact, that was and remains a topic of much discussion here on Nsider. Back prior to the Wii’s launch, we were all discussing third parties and whether or not they were supporting the Wii enough.

We all looked to Ubisoft as the main supporter of the Wii, with what we believed were seven launch titles. This was an astounding number, and simply blew other developers out of the water when it came to number of Wii launch titles. And that wasn’t even counting the other titles Ubisoft had confirmed were coming to the Wii, in which sheer quantity again blew the other developers out of the water. Ubisoft was trying to support the Wii by giving us lots of games, but it is my belief that they gave the wrong kind of support. In fact, it seems like they did everything wrong.

Here are the seven launch titles (launch window) games that Ubisoft released for the Wii. I think we may begin to see a common theme with many of them....

Far Cry Vengeance–While technically offering a few updates and new content, the game was essentially a port with downgraded visuals. The game received very poor reviews all around.

GT Pro Series–While heralded for the new controller add-on, the game was a port from the GCN version and suffered weakened, although different, graphics.

Monster 4x4 World Circuit–Again, another port! This was ported from the Xbox.

Open Season–Look no farther than the name. Of course it was a port!

Rayman Raving Rabbids–This was one of Ubisoft’s original Wii titles! Sadly, the game was well received by some, not so much by others. The consensus was, however, that the game was not what it was claimed to be earlier in the year.

Red Steel–More original content! However, much like Rayman, the game was praised by some, not so much by others. The game suffered from glitchy controls and could have been a lot better in many aspects.

Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell: Double Agent–Port!

Wii Sims Online?

In a recent edition of IGN's popular N-Query, Matt Casamassina had the following to say when asked if Sims for the Nintendo Wii would be online:

I recently interviewed EA about the game - I'll post the transcript soon - and the developer wouldn't come right out and say it, but made very clear to me that it is exploring an online component for MySims. The signage you saw only strengthens my belief that the game will have it. Oh, and on a side note, I've chatted with some third parties now who already have online components in their forthcoming Wii projects. It's coming, guys - Pokemon Battle Revolution kicks it off in the near future, but in the next six months you're going to start seeing a wave of third party games that take Wii online, too. Developers have had the online SDK for months now and the next wave of titles will incorporate it.

Well it seems as though Nintendo is finally taking notice and implementing some online components in their future endeavors. We all knew that it was coming with the release of Nintendo's own Pokemon franchise this June; it's just great to hear that 3rd parties are now lining up to get in on Nintendo "Wii-Fi."

More as it develops.

Phantom Hour Glass to be Online?

Fans who want their beloved Zelda series to join the ranks of many other classic Nintendo franchises that have made their way online, will have something to be happy about when the next incarnation of the series debuts later this year on the Nintendo DS.

In an interview with Game Informer magazine, Zelda co-creater Eiji Aonuma was asked if The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass will have online multiplayer battles. Without elaborating, he simply said, "Yes," and let out a maniacal laugh (ok the laugh I made up, but still interesting none the less)

What do you guys think; Should Zelda be online, or should it be strictly a 1 player title?

Kingdom Hearts Wii?

There has been rumors running rampant about a Kingdom Hearts on Nintendo Wii for seemingly an eternity. With all the love that Square has been giving us, why not see a Kingdom Hearts on a Nintendo console?

Reader John has just sent me this scan that he found in his recent issue of EGM. Immediately my mind began conjuring up ideas that could take place if they had actually produced a title of this magnitude on Wii. It would be spectacular to say the least and would solidify Nintendo as a major player in this next gen race (if they haven't already done so themselves)

I then thought to myself, which issue is this story coming out of? If it happens to be the "April" issue of the publication, I think we may have an early April fools joke on our hands. I will have to do some more research but HUGE PROPS to John for the story and the scan.

Promising Words Regarding Wii's Horsepower

"Wii has a lot of Horsepower" states Geoff Thomas of Radical Entertainment. The creators of Scarface had the following to say regarding the Wii:

“The Wii has a lot of horsepower under the hood and we’re making full use of it. We’ve overhauled our graphics engine to get the most out of the console by updating the shaders responsible for rendering the environment, vehicle, and characters. In many ways Scarface looks sharper on the Wii than it does on the PS2 and Xbox.”

Finally a developer exploiting the true potential of every one's favorite innovation. More to come so stay tuned! Game ON.

Space Station Tycoon

The following can be found on IGN. Here is an excerpt from their newest preview of the recently announced Space Station Tycoon:

February 27, 2007 - Namco Bandai Games revealed to IGN Wii on Tuesday that is planning to bring Space Station Tycoon, the latest in its series of Tycoon simulation titles, to Nintendo's new console. The game is developed by Wahoo Studios, whose last project was the well-received Outpost Kaloki X for Xbox Live Arcade, and Space Station Tycoon shares much in common with its predecessor. Players use the Wii remote to manage galactic space stations, all the while increasing their income. The game comes to life with a unique storyline that revolves around witty banter and humorous plot progression. Space Station Tycoon is set for a summer 2007 release on Wii.

Click here for the rest.

My Thoughts:
Add yet another game to Wii's library. This title looks rather interesting and I cannot wait to here more about the title. It is great to see Namco Bandai throw their hat into the ever growing 3rd party developer list that the Wii has.

I also have a feeling that this isn't the last announcement that we will here this week. Keep it locked to Gameonrevolution.

More Titles on The Way For Wii

These are due for release in second quarter 2007, DDI will follow these 6 with another 6 later in the year.

Billy the Wizard
It’s no fairytale when there’s an evil force around. Use your magical spells to attack evil dragons that have taken over the skies above ‘The Wizards Castle’. Or take part in the sorcerer’s ultimate challenge as you race alongside other wizards in the enchanting Broomstick Grand Prix.

Myth Makers Super Kart GP

Anubis II
The evil spirit has risen again and taken physical form. A ‘Pharaohs Curse’ has been placed over the fastest, strongest and most poisonous of Egypt’s inhabitants. The Gods have called on the only warrior that could rid the sands of these evil monsters and return peace to Egypt… The mighty Anubis.

Ninjabread Man

My Thoughts:
It's such a wonderful thing to see a ton of 3rd party support this early on in the Wii's lifecycle. It seems like every 3rd party, one way or another, has thrown their support Wii's way and it's only going to get better gamers. Since the Wii has already sold upwards of 5 million systems, it wont be long until we see everyone jumping on the Wii bandwagon. Stay tuned Nintendo fans. The grass is getting greener.

Shvitzel's Forever Blue Preview

Looks like Shvitzel has come through yet again with an amazing preview. Enjoy this lengthy, but incredible preview.

Nintendo has successfully launched the Wii now and sales show no sign of stopping anytime soon. And yet, we’ve now entered that drought of games that always occurs right after a system’s launch and usually begins in January for any console. However, the silver lining on this dark cloud is what will be coming by the end of 2007. We’ve got a big titles coming like Battalion Wars II, Super Mario Galaxy, Brawl, but the focus of this discussion will be a less known title, one that has been around since we first saw footage from Wii games. Today, we’ll be discussing:

Forever Blue

The game is published by Nintendo but developed by a small company in Japan called Arika. Arika was founded by former Capcom employees and brought a few Street Fighter games and Mega Man games to consoles. Oh, they also made some games called Everblue for the PS2, but more on that later.

Footage of Forever Blue was first seen in the big E3 video comprised of Wii games last year and again at the Nintendo conferences held around the world in September. This footage was significantly improved and offered some new sights, but still, the footage was limited to about eight seconds.

The game, to the public’s knowledge, takes place in the ocean or in the sea where you, a scuba diver, can interact with the animal life and investigate it. Footage of the game has shown our friendly character swimming amongst whale sharks and manta rays around beautiful coral backgrounds. There was also a small clip of footage with a first person perspective showing a fish around coral. The Wiimote is supposed to be used in a variety of ways to perform diving maneuvers, but no controls have been confirmed at this time.

Nintendo has said that the ocean and weather in the game will change depending on the time of day and season. This probably means that at different points of the day and during different seasons, you’ll be able to see different fish and marine life. You could compare this to being like the fishing in Animal Crossing. Also, the game will be featuring Wi-Fi so you and friends can meet up and dive together!

As I said earlier, Arika developed some games for the Playstation2: Everblue and Everblue 2. Do the names sound familiar? Yeah, I thought so. IGN reported on this in early January and they believe that due to the history of Arika and the title of the game, Forever Blue will be either a direct sequel or a Wiimake of the game. The titles received minimal reviews from IGN, who said that the experience was very fun, "a sometimes beautiful scuba diving experience, but lacked character and story development." Perhaps this is Arika’s chance to redeem themselves while giving the Wii an exciting and innovative, although un-conventional title. But then again, isn’t that what the Wii is all about?

The game is due to hit in Japan in 2007 and it is presumed it will hit in the U.S. by 2007's end as well.

Now, I’m going to sit down with Kaiser_Glider to have a little discussion about this game. We each ask a question and then respond to the other’s response. It’s a little something new we’re trying in previews, so we’ll see how it goes. Let us know if you like the debate! So, I ask the first question:

Shvitzel: How do you think this will affect sales on the Wii? Will it draw in more nongamers? Attract traditional gamers?

Kaiser: I really don't see this title garnering much attention really, not from gamers, and not from non gamers. The problem with these kind of games is the lack of marketing and the fact that only people who are willing to search al of the information regarding the title will know it.

Shvitzel: That's an excellent point. This game has gone under the radar for this long and there is no evidence of that changing anytime soon. However, I feel that this has the potential to be a sleeper hit, something we saw a lot on the GCN. That might inspire people to pick it up a few years after it launch. Also, once we get more footage of it and Nintendo starts to comment more on it, the response to it might change.

Kaiser: Oh most definitely, if Nintendo decides to hype this game up then the response and the attention will go up; there is nothing wrong with sleeper hits, but I can't help but think that the lack of sales that these games have will affect the company, not developing a sequel, prequel or whatever, afterall without solid sales there is no future.

Shvitzel: I think that there always is the chance for the game to show up again. Everblue didn't sell well and it would appear that Arika is already trying again.

Kaiser: Yeah, and chances are this Forever Blue will be kind of a remake, or so it seems. The game has a lot of potential, IGN confirmed online play when the title was first announced and also it seems the graphics look amazing; this would make a title a little better known, but it doesn't seem that way.

Second question:

Kaiser: What makes this game interesting to you? Is is the fact that it's a different kind of game, is it the thought of exploring the vast ocean with friends, or what would you say has gotten your attention?

Shvitzel: I don't know what about it is so appealing but from the moment I first saw the video of it, I was so intrigued. I guess it is just because the title appears to be so un-conventional. It is different. It isn't what we've played time and time again. Wi-Fi sounds good and I'm sure it will be fun, but it's just the premise that has me so interested. I'm eagerly awaiting more news because everything I've heard this far has been only kept me interested.

Kaiser: The game really seems fun, in a not so conventional sort of way, similar to what the Touch Generations on the DS is doing, titles that are "out of the norm" per say, but turn out to be pretty fun. What has gotten me excited about Forever Blue is the fact of exploring the ocean, be it with a friend or alone, and maybe, just maybe take snapshots and send them to friends on my Wii Address Book, just like I told Kezay. As I said before the game has a lot of potential.

Shvitzel: I think they should be called Point Generations! It's un-conventional, but looks fun. That's just what Nintendo seems to have a lot of the time. Hopefully, titles like this will continue to pop up. Who knows what the next one will be....

So, what do you all think of this title? Interested, or would you rather have another more traditional title? Why are you interested if you are? Also, what are your responses to Kaiser and my conversation? Does this title have the power to attract nongamers or traditional gamers?

It seems like Nintendo was looking for a hit, and I think they found it. What about you?

Cryptic Words From Matt C

A portion of Matt Casamassina’s latest blog post states some really interesting vague facts about upcoming unannounced projects that are making their way to Wii. Although nothing specific was discussed, he had some very positive things to say. Check it out:

There are some potentially crazy-awesome games coming down the pipeline for Wii, by the way. You guys have no idea. I know that’s vague — has to be, but I’ve seen some stuff that you simply have no idea even exists and frankly, if you did, you’d flip out. Comments like these have a way of backfiring on me and i’m sure some people will be annoyed that I’ve even brought up, since I’m unable to give even a hint about the projects in question. Others will undoubtedly say that I’m merely making crap up because there’s no way anybody can disprove statements that are intentionally so unrevealing. But whatev. I know that if I was in your position, I’d be happy just to know that some very cool, unexpected stuff is brewing somewhere way behind-the-scenes. I swear, when this stuff finally shows up, I’ll let you know that I blogged about it way back when. In the meantime, this is probably good material for the IGN Wii message boards......

...Next week should be fun. We've got some companies stopping by to show us some Wii games. We'll be announcing a new project or two during the week. Nothing earth-shattering-major, so don't hype yourselves up, but kind of neat all the same. And if we can ever actually play them, games like SSX will be reviewed. By the way, EA never announced its new Wii project, did it? That must be forthcoming, too

Keep it here and I promise we will keep you informed. Game ON.
