This developer video from EA showcasing “Tiger Woods 11” on Wii gives first insight into the new features the game will have this year. Among them is a first person viewpoint of swinging your clubs which looks pretty cool to us! This is only an option, so don’t worry you are not forced to use i if you don’t want to, however it certainly looks like this years game will be the most realistic golf game to date.
What do you think of the new first person controls? Let us know in the comments below.
Either the person playing this is just very good at it or the game is very easy! Anyway this is the first look at WiiWare title “Darts Rage“.
The darts mini-game on “Super Monkey Ball” was one of my favorites where you held the wiimote as a dart and threw it. Not sure the controls on this game look so innovative judging by this video but let’s hope they are and it’s as fun to play as the monkey version.
Not much was known about Artoon-developed “FlingSmash” until the recent Nintendo summit, despite being announced over a year ago. This Wii MotionPlus controlled game invites you to collect power-ups, break blocks and build up your score in side-scrolling levels by controlling a little yellow character.
The game is being published by Nintendo and though there is no solid release date, it is expected in the second half of this year.
The next in the Bit.Trip series is “Bit.Trip Runner” and here’s some new footage to see how well the game is coming along at Gaijin Studios.
We’re fans of the old-school retro look to these games and this one doesn’t dissappoint either. Gameplay-wise this is more like “Cananbalt” on the iPhone compared to the last couple of shooters that we’ve had before.
Fancy knowing what weapons you will be wielding in “Red Steel 2“? Good as it just so happens that this video shows exactly that. Beware of spoilers though, as it also shows unlockable weapons from later in this Wii MotionPlus game.
While we’re talking RS2, Ubisoft have stated that the game has gone gold and point out some key features of the game after the jump.
Nintendo have released a new HD trailer for “Metroid: Other M” following on from last weeks media summits where attendees were impressed by what they saw.
This Metroid title, co-developed by Nintendo and Team Ninja, focuses more on the story and life of Samus with the Galactic Federation than other Metroid’s have in the past and the clip above shows what we can expect of some of the cinematic FMV sequences of the game.
“Metroid: Other M” is out 27th June in North America and slated for a vague Quarter 3 in Europe.
Aussie Nintendo managed to swipe footage of their playtime with “Super Mario Galaxy 2” last week and were nice enough to share it with us. The video shows many of the demo levels that were available at the Nintendo media summit, including levels not seen in the videos from last week.
Check it out above.
Check out the awesome tech for this DSiWare game called “Rittai Kakushi E Attakoreda“, heading for release in Japan (not word of it leaving Japan either, unfortunately). It uses the DSi camera to shift a 3D viewpoint when the console is moved and looks very cool.
Let’s hope other developers start using similar techniques as this could lead to some interesting game concepts.
Developer Virtual Toys have announced that their upcoming DSiWare tennis game “VT Tennis” is out on Monday in the US (also coming to iPhone and PSP Mini’s).
Head inside for video footage and press release. The game will set you back a puny 500 Nintendo Points.
Here’s the official trailer of newly titled “Sin & Punishment: Star Successor” from the Nintendo media summits held this week.
We can’t wait to get our hands on Treasure’s latest shooter. It looks like fun no?
As you know the DS is home to a massive line-up of awesome games from all genres. We reckon if it’s lacking in one area, that has to be scrolling ’schmups’ just like ‘Metal Torrent‘ here.
We loved ‘Nanostray‘ but this is looking every bit as good, if not better and reminds us a bit of cult classic ‘Ikaruga‘. Check out the eye-popping action above as this looks hardcore to the extreme!
Continuing their Art Style series, Nintendo have shown off a few more titles that fall under that category, one of them being ‘Art Style: Rotozoa‘ above. This looks like the perfect antidote to the hectic looking ‘Art Style: Light Trax‘ we posted earlier.
