Sure as hell Nintendo could do with this as so many people own a DS and Wii, there must be quite a few who own both. Yet they have done less with this oppurtunity than in the gamecube era which is fairly frustrating. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That is just plain POOR Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted April 30, 2008 I loved SimCity 3000 on the PC and had 4, but my PC couldn't handle it at a decent rate, so I didn't bother with it. So it would be great to return to the series on Wii. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 30, 2008 Great news! Was disappointed with the last DS game, due to the controls, but hopefully the Wii remote will work well. Would be awesome, if your Mii's were seen walking about your city when you zoom in on it, and I hope they stay with realistic graphics, and not adopt My Sims style effects. Dunno what "Creator" means. Sure SimCity has always been a creation game... Maybe the casual's don't know that, thus this new title will inform them that it's a "Creator" game, once they look at the box. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They concentrated on that back at Gamecubes time and Satori iwata said "people do not want on-line gaming".. now they are concentrating more and more on on-line..It's way better this way.. besides the only good thing that came from connectivity was pac-man vs. Great news!

Posted April 30, 2008 Societies was one of the worst games I've ever played. It ruined the series for me. I loved 3000 and then loved 4 even more. If this is anything like Societies, then avoid it like the plague. If it's something else, I'll look forward to it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted May 28, 2008 Another Sims game that isn't made by Maxis? EA can piss off after how bad Societies was. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 28, 2008 Societies was made by Tilted Mill, some of the blokes who did Caesar III. This is Japanese-developed, to my belief, and thus deserves an equation without Societes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 28, 2008 Argh!!!!! I don't care about "sweet" buildings and "wacky" disasters. I WANT A REAL SIMCITY GAME AGAIN! Jeez. C'mannn giant mecha's! It'll be like having a Power Rangers Zord battle happen in your city! It also kinda harks back to the Bowser attack that was available in SimCity on the Snes.

Posted May 29, 2008 This could be promising as I love the series. As long as it doesn't get dumbed down to fit the 'expanded' market and they avoid anything to do with the godawful MySims (advisors only , I could probably tolerate) then I am sold on it.

Posted May 29, 2008 IGN's Infomation Sim City Creator keeps the basic look and concept of the Sim City series in place, but adds in some nifty Wiimote control options. You use the controller as a pointer to point and draw roads and train tracks, allowing you to more directly experience the feel of planning out a city. Even ignoring the controls, EA is packing the title with new features. You can build a variety of facilities in your city, including such requirements as residential and shopping areas, stadiums, and police stations. When erecting these buildings, you're free to select a theme, changing the overall look of the construction. Options include India, China, and European, resulting in buildings that look like they were pulled from those regions. More elaborate styles include "near future," offering a futuristic concept, "crystal," where everything appears to be made out of crystals, and "sweets." We'll let you figure out that last one for yourself. As you build you're town, you have the option of getting a sweeping overview like only a rich, corrupt mayor could: via helicopter. Taking a helicopter tour of your city allows you to get a look at your work in progress, and maybe even make some new discoveries. In typical Sim City fashion, there's more to the game than just building your city. You'll also have to deal with disasters. Examples include meteor impacts, dinosaur attacks, alien invaders, and giant robot attack (remember, the game is debuting in a Japanese magazine). Those who take to the art of city planning will have a new way of showing off their creations: Wi-Fi Connect! Using Nintendo's online service, you can make public the cities that you've created in the mission mode and get feedback and rankings from other players.
