BigTac Posted December 1, 2005 Posted December 1, 2005 http://www.joystiq.com/entry/1234000517070404/ Earlier this year, the United Nations released Food Force, a game about delivering supplies to citizens in war zones while trying to avoid hostile forces. The title, available free to download, met with some surprising success. Now, it seems, we may get another UN-based game with which to play. Angelina Jolie, with beau Brad Pitt, have allegedly met with some Nintendo executives to propose a game about UN goodwill. Entertainment Wise is reporting that Jolie “is hoping that the new game will help raise money for poor countries while teaching people about refugees.†GamePolitics has tried to follow up on the story, contacting various sources inside Nintendo, but could not find anyone to verify the story - so for now, this is only a rumor. This sounds interesting if true, but of all companies what makes AJ talk with Nintendo. If this is true Nintendo better take advantage of this great opportunity and do it. Great publicity and exclusive for Revolution. I will try to confirm if possible.
Konfucius Posted December 1, 2005 Posted December 1, 2005 When I read the title I actually hoped she would be casted for a Metroid film or something like this - well I guess she didn't have to meet with execs then. If this is true it's certainly very good publicity and advertisment for Nintendo ... interesting Hollywood, Broadway, now Hollywood Stars; coincidence? - for sure.
david.dakota Posted December 1, 2005 Posted December 1, 2005 It would not surprise me if they're meeting loads of execs over the next few months. But Nintendo could take great advantage of this - a reasonably inexpensive game couldbe made and supported by Jolie and Pitt (who seems to tag along with anything Miss Tomb Raider does).
