This must be one of the most impressive looking WiiWare titles so far. Announced today by developers Shin’en is “Jett Rocket” which they describe as an “epic futuristic full 3D Action-Adventure“. Ok… sounds good to us, especially if the gameplay is as good as its looks!
No word on a release date yet but head inside for more details and screenshots or see the games website here.
Capcom have blown the lid off ‘Monster Hunter 3‘ announcing about the game - “Free Online Play, Release Date, Wii-Speak Support, Playable Demo, and Exclusive Pre-order Incentives”.
The highly acclaimed title will be shipping April 20th 2010 in the US. The Classic Controller Pro bundle will set you back $59.99 while the standalone game will be $49.99.

Hooray! We finally get to see some new ‘Metroid: Other M‘ media. Got some screens here with video footage to follow. The game is out on June 27th in North America.
Head in side for the rest. Also the official Metroid website has been updated here.
Yesterday we got the first glimpse of “Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands” on Wii and today, well, we have more!
Head inside to have a peek…
Ubisoft have finally released more details and screenshots for their upcoming Wii adventure “Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands“. This is said to be the proper sequel to the Gamecube title “Prince Of Persia: Sands of Time“, which many gamers say is the best in the series (and we have to agree!). That alone should be reason enough to get excited and the game is looking good so far.
“Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands” is scheduled to ship May 18th 2010. Head inside for another screen and press release from Ubisoft.
It was confirmed by Sega today the their upcoming challenger to Mario Karts crown, ‘Sega’s All Star Racing‘ will include the ability to be able to race as your Mii. This of course is already a feature in the plumbers racer but it’s nice to see Sega put in the same effort for their star studded kart-a-thon.
Sega’s All Star Racing is out February for Wii an DS.
If you’re looking forward to Bionic Games’s Wii exclusive ‘Spyborgs‘, the game that has seen a major graphical overhaul since last year, you will not have to wait much longer. The game has been scheduled for September 29th release in North America, priced $49.99.
Unfortunately Capcom have not come clean about a release in Europe/Australia yet but hopefully it won’t be the usual 6 month delay for you guys.
There’s video here and screens there.
Feast your eyes on these tasty looking screens from Capcom’s ‘Monster Hunter 3′, showing a snowy area of the game in all its glory.
We are hard pressed to think of any other Wii game looking this good, maybe with the exception of Super Mario Galaxy. It seems the developers have squeezed a lot of power from the Wii and we’re keeping our fingers crossed that it lives up to the scale of the very popular PSP ‘Monster Hunter 2nd G’ in other departments.
Head inside for more screens.
Famitsu officially revealed the game we already knew about this week - ‘The Calling’, a new survival horror game for Wii sharing much in common with ‘Ju-on’, also on Wii.
Screens and press release inside, video here, that’s all!
As we saw at E3 last month, Red Steel 2 is looking amazing. All seemed to agree that it was one of the best looking Wii games at the show. However all is not as rosy as it seems. There are concerns that the sword fighting elements of the gameplay are still not particularly good, even with Wii MotionPlus support and also that the game feels a bit shallow and repetitive.
Of course there is plenty of development time left as the game is not scheduled for release until this winter so let’s keep our fingers (and toes!) crossed that Ubisoft deliver a game that plays as well as it looks.
More screens after the break.
‘Tatsunoko vs. Capcom: Ultimate All Stars‘ has been availale in Japan for a while now but due to some licensing issues for the games characters it has meant a delay for the western release. Now those problems have been sorted we will be able to scrap with our favourite characters quite soon. Well soon-ish as the game is expected in the rest of the world this winter or early 2010.
Expect a wide selection from Japanese animation studios Tatsunoko and Capcoms back catalogues as well as support for the classic controller, gamecube pads and a specially designed arcade stick to control the game.
More screens after the break.
Publisher XSeed have come to the rescue once again as they have picked up the rights to bring ‘Sky Crawlers: Innocent Aces‘ over from Japan for release stateside. The game was developed by the Ace Combat team and is also a flight combat sim.
Sky Crawlers is said to have an “innovative control scheme and gorgeous visuals”. The game was built from the ground up for Wii and awarded a Famitsu Gold Award when released in Japan.
Expect the game later this year but in the mean time check out some more screens and official press release after the break. Bravo!
