Von der Grafik her erinnert es mich an Jaffes PSN Game was im Vorfeld ohne Ende gehyped wurde - nur das es lustiger aussieht :-D
 
Full Ack - echt krass wenn man bedenkt das so en WiiWare Game für Euro 16:8, 490P, Online, guten Soundtrack etc. bietet und 90% der Retail Wii Kacke das für 60 Euro net hinkriegen.

WiiWare wird erst richtig deutlich machen wie wenig sich manche Entwickler mit der Hardware auseinander setzen.
Das kannst du laut sagen, hier können sich die Entwickler zum Glück endlich mal austoben, herumprobieren und sich mit der Hardware auseinandersetzen. :goodwork:


Bzw., habe mir mal die Liste der WiiWare - Spiele angesehen, mausert sich langsam, sollte auch bald einen Wii haben. :D
 
Ihr sagt es! Irgendwie kommt es mir vor, als ob diese kleinen Entwickler wie zB High Voltage sich auf der WiiWare viel besser austoben können und einfach mal rumprobieren dürfen! Die Riesenmajorstudios wie EA oder Ubisoft verschwenden dafür denke ich nicht "nötige" Ressourcen...

Nintendo hat ja mal gesagt, das sie es auf dem Wii auch kleinen Entwicklern möglich machen wollen, ihre Spiele groß rauszubringen:

BINGO, ihr habts geschafft :goodwork:

Bin mal wieder echt Stolz auf BIG N :)
 
Aus dem Nintendo Geschäftsbericht:

WiiWare is a service for Wii users to download and purchase new Wii titles and it will pave a road to new possibilities for game software developers.
I myself as a former video game developer, have been involved in game developments since the dawn of home TV games. In the early days of the Japanese NES, a couple developers could create a software in a few months. Nowadays, such development styles will hardly work.
With my developer background, I have been very concerned that even if games such as Tetris, which lacks graphical gorgeousness but has a loyal following, there appear to be little chance for them to succeed in the current video game market today. The current system in the market is limiting the ability of small development teams with limited financial resources to dare create something boldly new.
WiiWare is the environment which allows compact-sized video game software (to be downloaded) electronically, without inventory risks, so that game developers are given the opportunity to create something brand new with only great ideas and without having to worrying about other resources..
In Japan, this service has already started. In the U.S. and in Europe, the same service starts on May 12 and 20, respectively.

Also, as you can see here, there are not just the so-called game publishers who have been marketing and selling the software under their brand names, but there are also a number of smaller-sized and new developers now working on WiiWare software.

WiiWare software developments have already started in the U.S. and Europe too. I would like to note the fact that a number of small-sized developers are proactively entering into this business by sensing the business potential of WiiWare.
Companies with less than 20 employees comprise 56% of the total number of companies which have so far decided to make WiiWare software. When we look at the percentage of the companies with 50 employees or less, they constitute three quarters of all.
This must be the sign that these companies think that WiiWare is a worthwhile business for them to aggressively pursue.

Video zu World of Goo

I'd like to show you one example. This is a WiiWare software called "World of Goo", which is currently being developed by a company called 2D Boy.
What you are seeing now may be self-explanatory but this is a sort of puzzle game which makes use of physical calculations. You will use the pointer function of Wii Remote to control and guide the grid-like character to the goal pipe.
I was given an opportunity to look at this game this week and understood that this game contains a lot of gimmicks and tweaks. Internally at Nintendo, a lot of positive talks about this can be heard today.
Initially, two developers started this development project, and most recently, one developer has been added to the team, which brings the total development members to three. Nowadays, it is very hard for a small-sized development team like them to work on a software for home console game machine. We are hopeful that WiiWare can explore a new path for this kind of brand new products and we would, of course, like to aggressively support WiiWare.


Nintendo scheint sich sehr um die kleineren Entwickler zu bemühen, imo auch besser so, die großen kommen so oder so [Geld ftw. ;)].

Magnetica und das Ping Pong Game kommen also zu uns und dieses Black Jack - Game scheint noch ein Spiel von High Voltage zu sein. :)
 
Sieht ganz nett aus - zumindest schonmal interessanter als Star Soldier....wann solls erscheinen ?
 
Hab mir mal die PC Demo von Protöthea heruntergeladen. Ist wirklich nicht schlecht, nur bin ich kein grosser Fan von 360° Shmups, also bleibt für mich Star Soldier erstmal der Shoot'em Up Favorit.
 
Naja, erstmal dürften 1500 reichen, denn so viel kostet es ja. Des weiteren wirst du nicht gezwungen, dass du dir den Inhalt erwirbst.

Jo, erstmal schauen ob das Hauptprogramm gut ist - dann kann man sich immer noch die Erweiterungen herunterladen :-)

Hoffe aber das es auch mal Free-Stuff zum laden geben wird :-)
