Posted January 12, 2007 Don't think it's been posted yet, but Midway seems to have confirmed the PAL release date: Friday 15 march. Besides that the game uses functions of the Wii-remote and it's supposed to be the first Wii title to go online... whoaat!! 11th January 2007, Hot on the heels of their recent press release confirming that MK Armageddon has in fact shipped more than 1 Million copies worldwide since its release last october Midway has confirmed the European release date as Friday 15th March 2007. Promising to use the intuitive contol system on Wii, MK Armageddon looks set to be a smash hit. It will be the first title to utilize Nintendos Online System and the first fully fledged fighter to be released on Wii in the Pal territory. A nice position for Midway to be in indeed. Hope it's all true Cover: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted January 12, 2007 I doubt MK will be the only launch title for Wii Online. There must be more, maybe Smash Bros...? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 12, 2007 Well... I thought the launch title for Wii online would be Super Smash Brothers Brawl..? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 12, 2007 is that out before MK? if not then MK will be the first one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 12, 2007 is that out before MK? if not then MK will be the first one. It's out probably in Q4, so no. And BWii and Mario Strikers are online games out before smash bros, anyway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 12, 2007 So the total online games confirmed are: Mortal Kombat: Argmageddon Elebits Mario Strikers Charged BWii: Batallion Wars 2 Super Smash Brothers Brawl Pokemon Battle Revolution Forever Blue Animal Crossing Not too bad. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 12, 2007 Elebits is only for getting levels though isn't it? There's no actual multiplayer online. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 12, 2007 Is it confirmed that this game has online multiplayer or could it be just something like sharing created fighters? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 12, 2007 If this has online and it plays well with the Wii controls it could find itself on my shopping list. Ive played a quir ween o' Mortal Kombats in my time - N64 one might be my favourite so far - but I only own the first Snes one... and its kinda sucky. The ultimate fighting games are Killer Instinct but I doubt that itll be coming to Wii. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 12, 2007 Street Fight 2 Turbo is my all time favorite fighting game. I was very skilled with this game when I played it frequently. Played nearly one thousand matches [against credible skilled opponents mostly mind you] and am yet to lose a match, but if I were to play now, i'd be killed and lose that perfect record...

Posted January 12, 2007 Where did you see this, Scorp? It will be great if it's true. I've not actually played a Mortal Kombat game since the 16 bit era. Are the 3D ones any good? I'd heard they weren't, which is why I have avoided them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 12, 2007 Remember that Tony Hawks DS came out, and had online play, before the first Nintendo game. Maybe the same thing is going to happen again... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd heard they weren't, which is why I have avoided them. .They are goodish but games like soul calibur trash them.the mortal kombat series is probably only beat em up series that has got with the times.the street fighter 3d games are godawful i enjoyed mortal kombat 4 on n64 but it seems that the new one is looking good not sure about this version though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 12, 2007 I hope the online is confirmed. Its time to get Wii onto the online arena where it belongs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 12, 2007 I;'m sure MK is online, as in online play. It just seems a very odd title to launch the online service with - its not a major crowd puller, not like Tony Hawk or Mario Kart Mortal Kombat: ArgmageddonElebits Mario Strikers Charged BWii: Batallion Wars 2 Super Smash Brothers Brawl Pokemon Battle Revolution Forever Blue Animal Crossing You've forgotten Final Fantasy: Crystal Bearers which i beleive is confirmed for online play. Thats a damn strong lineup for online play, especially as i'm sure there are more in the pipeline (I'm sure EA's SIMS Wii, Mario Kart). My choices are, of course, in Bold. Possible purchases in italics. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
