david.dakota Posted January 23, 2009 Posted January 23, 2009 Wow. 7575 signatories so far. Hopefully, publishers will take note.
mcj metroid Posted January 25, 2009 Posted January 25, 2009 They are. Quite honestly I always believed that the reason GameCube was always seen as the underdog was due to its install base, I always thought that was THE justification we had relied on Nintendo and its in house games. But since the Wii's success I'm starting to doubt, there must be some superior reason for the market leader not being supported as it should, maybe the industry really is just money hats. Why would you choose to spend huge amounts on money on consoles that at start don't even have the same sales potential? Why do they keep pumping shitty shovelware despite having been proved that most don't actually sell that well? i was thinking this too.. Nintendo are still awkward when it comes to things.. I wonder do all titles have to get tested in NOA and Japan even if it never gets released in japan anymore.. it used to happen and it was stupid and time consuming. Little things.. We all know nintendo were cunts at one time under yamachi what makes us think they have changed?
Noku Posted January 26, 2009 Author Posted January 26, 2009 Come on gang! To 20.000 and beyond! Almost hitting 11.000 now You have all asked your peers to sign, haven't you???
Ganepark32 Posted January 26, 2009 Posted January 26, 2009 I know of one site which hasn't even posted about it and probably don't know about it. Will get in touch with the guys who run it as I've done a few reviews for them and get it sorted.
david.dakota Posted January 26, 2009 Posted January 26, 2009 How would this compare to other 'bring a game to us' petitions?
D_prOdigy Posted January 26, 2009 Posted January 26, 2009 I didn't look for much, but I find the primary "Bring Monster Hunter 3 to the West" petition, which is just over 1,000 sigs (albeit, there hasn't yet been a clean, organised campaign for that cause). Intruigingly, I also came across a "Bring Monster Hunter 3 to PS3" petition. It stood at 41 sigs.
Shino Posted January 26, 2009 Posted January 26, 2009 Intruigingly, I also came across a "Bring Monster Hunter 3 to PS3" petition. It stood at 41 sigs. Haha. ....
david.dakota Posted January 26, 2009 Posted January 26, 2009 Intruigingly, I also came across a "Bring Monster Hunter 3 to PS3" petition. It stood at 41 sigs. Its so impressive how they got the entire Playstation install base to sign that petition. Out of interest, where is (Wii) MH3 petition?
Noku Posted January 26, 2009 Author Posted January 26, 2009 How would this compare to other 'bring a game to us' petitions? Going strong (Okami on Wii petition I found got 43 sigs), but nothing compared to this one, which looks to be doing it without any site support whatsoever. Hurray for franchising?
D_prOdigy Posted January 26, 2009 Posted January 26, 2009 Out of interest, where is (Wii) MH3 petition? I just typed in Monster Hunter 3 on the site and it was the first one to crop up. but nothing compared to this one, which looks to be doing it without any site support whatsoever. Hurray for franchising? Wow. I didn't expect such a petition to be so big yet remain unheard of. The thing is though, if Capcom have half a brain cell between them, they'll already know the potential for the RE franchise on Wii. I've said it before, but I bet they're really kicking themselves that they skipped Wii with RE5. They'll make up for it; just how exactly remains to be seen...
D_prOdigy Posted February 1, 2009 Posted February 1, 2009 Well it looks like something worked. http://n-europe.com/news.php?nid=12833
Ganepark32 Posted February 1, 2009 Posted February 1, 2009 Ah, it's nice to see that the internet can be put to good use for things like this. Lets hope that discussions pick up after they've finished what they are doing at the moment and that it gets the publisher it deserves.
Zechs Merquise Posted February 2, 2009 Posted February 2, 2009 Its so impressive how they got the entire Playstation install base to sign that petition. Out of interest, where is (Wii) MH3 petition? hahaha! I was going to say that! The RE5 for Wii was a BIG petition, sadly no one listened
david.dakota Posted February 2, 2009 Posted February 2, 2009 The RE5 for Wii was a BIG petition, sadly no one listened There seems to be quite a back lash over the RE5 demo, if thats reflected at retail, it may further push Capcom to re-imagine it for a Wii title. They've got a damned impressive engine in the room marked 'Monster Hunter 3'. Get rid of the token ethnic co-op character, and as far as i'm concerned, its a winner.
Cube Posted February 2, 2009 Posted February 2, 2009 There seems to be quite a back lash over the RE5 demo, if thats reflected at retail, it may further push Capcom to re-imagine it for a Wii title. Re-imagining? They just have to make lower poly character models and it should easily work on the Wii.
mcj metroid Posted February 4, 2009 Posted February 4, 2009 Re-imagining? They just have to make lower poly character models and it should easily work on the Wii. yes but wii-specific controls that take advantage would be nice too.. All wel and good saying lower graphics but the control system is a lot different after all.
Fierce_LiNk Posted February 5, 2009 Posted February 5, 2009 yes but wii-specific controls that take advantage would be nice too.. All wel and good saying lower graphics but the control system is a lot different after all. Funny enough, after reading through some of the impressions in the Resi5 (heh, Re5i) thread in other consoles, it seems like people really had to fiddle with the controller setups in order to get the best ouf the game. That, and the co-op/Shivagirl un-love. So, what would be wrong with just going for the obvious and using the same style controls as the Wii edition of Resi4? The controls were tight, effective and worked like a dream. Make a few adjustments here and there, but it wouldn' have to be a huuuuge step, imo. Saying that though, I think I would prefer an entire new Resi game, one that goes back to its roots, with zombies, alternate stories/character lines, eerie locations. The series is slowly becoming something else altogether. Maybe we're losing that loooving feeling.

The series is slowly becoming something else altogether. Maybe we're losing that loooving feeling. I'm with you on that one. I don't even want a RE 2 remake (It would be nice) But I would rather have a new RE game playing on ma Wii with the same control aspect of RE4.
david.dakota Posted March 28, 2009 Posted March 28, 2009 According to Matt over at IGN.com, n-Space recently assembled a new team to revise the Winter demo shown just a few weeks back. Winter 2.0, as it has been dubbed, has been given a little spit and polish with some improved effects added and new textures to remedy the 'washed out' look of building exteriors in the original build. The title has also seen WiiMotionPlus included. Better still, during his discussions, n-Space revealed that there has been some publisher interest. Winter seems to have been repriortised over at n-Space. Hopefully, this renewed activity will lead to Winter being released I, for one, felt the title showed promise.
mcj metroid Posted March 28, 2009 Posted March 28, 2009 i know ye want original games on the wii.. but well winter? what makes you all think it will be good? geist was.. ok at best.
Noku Posted March 28, 2009 Author Posted March 28, 2009 Praise the lords! For me, the Silent-Hilly feel of the game. Plus "you can grab and open anything you see." Interactivity has always been a field that many games should do better in, so it was nice to encounter such a feature. On top of that, that creep coming 'round the corner was just downright creepy.
david.dakota Posted March 28, 2009 Posted March 28, 2009 i know ye want original games on the wii.. but well winter? what makes you all think it will be good? geist was.. ok at best. For me the premise looks great. I'm loving the ideas in there, and think it shows great promise for sure. So yeah, i want Winter on Wii. Does that mean i'll buy it if its a crock of shite? No, not at all- but i'd rather see what the team can do with it, than never see it at all.
