Imagine confirms N•Revolution closure

UK magazine publisher suspends its Nintendo title following shifts in target demographics

6529_N.Revolution.jpg


Bournemouth based UK magazine publisher Imagine has confirmed to MCV that it has suspended its Nintendo-focused title N•Revolution, as was rumoured last week.

“The decision to suspend N•Revolution has been taken because it has become increasingly obvious that Nintendo’s strategy for Wii and DS is no longer in line with Imagine Publishing's target readership, and has moved increasingly away from the hardcore gaming community that is our specialty,” managing director Damian Butt explained.

“With many new launches and especially acquisitions coming to fruition, we believe the resources and manpower are better spent in other markets where advertising revenue and PR support are stronger and sustained.

“Imagine will continue to drive purchases of Nintendo software with games™, Retro Gamer and our new multiformat videogames website, NowGamer.com, and we hope to work closely with Nintendo in the future on those magazines.”

Miyamoto über die nächste Controller-Generation

Miyamoto hat ein Interview mit EDGE Online geführt und über die nächste Interface-Generation gesprochen. Wir haben für euch die wichtigsten Fakten herausgepickt und zusammengefasst.

"Nintendo sieht momentan es als Hauptaufgabe das Interface weiterzuentwickeln. Es ist auch wichtig für den kreativen Prozess von neuen Spielen. Wenn man immer wieder den gleichen Controller nutzt verliert man einen wichtigen Kreativen Aspekt in der Weiterentwicklung von Spielen. Natürlich wird man das nächste Interface komplett überarbeiten, doch will man nicht die Leute vergraulen die sich jetzt an die Wii-Remote gewöhnt haben. Aber Nintendo will zukünftig den Controller noch intuitiver und viel einfacher machen. Man möchte noch mehr Leute erreichen, die sich noch nie mit VIdeospielen befasst haben. So Miyamoto."

Quartermann: Is QJ The New Rez?

489.jpg


Earlier this week, we saw the announcement of a new project from Q Entertainment mastermind Tesuya Mizuguchi, a Wii game tentatively titled QJ. At the time, all we knew about the game is that (unsurprisingly for the techno-savvy game creator) it will involve music. But if the latest rumor from Quartermann in the January issue of EGM is to be believed, this game may just be the continuation of Rez that virtually everyone who touched that game has been praying for ever since.

According to Quartermann, Mizuguchi's next project is still in an early theoretical design stage -- thus why Atari didn't show any footage or teasers when they announced it -- but it will offer a similar blend of hardcore shoot-em-up action and bass-heavy techno beats that was introduced in 2002's Rez. Q won't be allowed to use the name "Rez" because it's reportedly still owned by Sega, but the gameplay should be more or less intact.

We can't be sure about this one until Atari decides to reveal more about what QJ is, but with Rez included as part of the also-announced Q3 compilation pack, it makes sense that they would want to continue exploring that concept in his next game. We're anxious to hear more and will update you with anything official as soon as we have it.
