Got this video from GameTrailers Wii, one of my Miro subscriptions.
It’s still in development, but from the look of this early trailer, it looks to be like one of the more creative games we’ve seen in previous years. Will it be joining the ranks of Little Big Planet and World of Goo? It’s quite too early to tell, but just watch the trailer and post your opinion in the comments.

“7,750?” I asked. “7,795 po”, the saleswoman corrected me, the tone of her voice proud, as if they were selling the deal of the century. Indeed, Datablitz’s price is one of the lowest, compared to around 9,500 pesos in the toy shops of the large malls like SM Toy Kingdom, Toys R Us, and that toy store in Landmark Trinoma. If only people knew that they were actually selling the WiiFit more than 200% of its real price. At Yodobashi in Japan, the Wii Fit sells for 8,360 yen or about 4,180 pesos. And it would have been even lower if it wasn’t for the bad foreign exchange right now, and since Yodobashi is like a huge chain of super stores, you could find an even better deal if you bought from other smaller stores. An imported Japanese DSi would set you back 17,800 pesos here. It’s SRP? 18,800 yen (9,400 pesos). A Wii console costs 22,000 pesos. It sells for 25,000 yen anywhere in Japan. And good luck looking for a Y30,000 Xbox 360 Premium. You’d be lucky to get it here for 20,000 pesos (Y40,000). Apparently, I’m not the only one being miffed by this whole situation; this situation has been going on since the PSX and is not likely to abate any time soon.
The PS3 finally, clearly, claims 1st prize and bragging rights in this totally scientifically-decided battle for the top next-gen console.
The XBox 360 dropped out in the very first round while the Wii and PS3 continued on duelling it out till the end. Applause! Applause! Hmm, maybe I shouldn’t get a 360 after all…
Note: I urge you not to perform this test yourself, but feel free to do so. I waive all responsibility. Read the rest of this entry »
When I was younger, there was a cartoon on TV called G-Force: Guardians of Space (Gatchaman in Japan). They were a group of 5, dressed in costumes representing an avian specie, similar to Voltron and Voltes V, except they flew in a plane and didn’t have a big robot. But they fought and kicked ass.
Well, the Guardians of Space are back, and they’re kicking Ryu’s ass in this video of Tatsunoko vs. Capcom for the Wii! Watch the video to see the beautiful, head-bashing visuals:
Last week’s big news was the official announcement from Nintendo that they would be releasing a new DS on November 1. The Nintendo DSi will be thinner, have bigger screens, 2 built-in cameras, MP3 player, web browser, and an SD card slot. More signifcantly though, is the DS Store that will launch with the DSi. You will now be able to download games directly to your DS via a WiFI connection using Nintendo points and save it via the SD card slot or increased on-board memory. Read the rest of this entry »
Apparently, some people preferred the first part of the Animal March Puppet Show over the part 2. So here it is. I couldn’t understand some of the dialogue, but you’ll get it anyway. And it was quite long, so I didn’t spend too much time on it. So, here it is!
I’ve been away from Miro for several days; this week’s been pretty busy. So when I went online with Miro, lo and behold a nice truckload of new videos were awaiting my perusal. And among them, were some very creative and interesting game trailers, courtesy of GameTrailers.com. Read the rest of this entry »
Consider this: would you rather execute a Force Push with B (XBox360) or Triangle (PS3) or would you rather just literally push your enemy? That’s exactly what the Wii version empowers you to do. And if that’s what gets your Star Wars fantasies excited, the Wii version is for you. I just got my copy of TFU for the Wii from Play-Asia, and it plays great! Read the rest of this entry »
Another thing worth mentioning is that I found out today that unlike the PS3 and XBox versions, the Wii version will have a duel mode. I’m gonna have some fun slicing someone I know. Hehe. Aside from that Wii also gets a few more levels. Yes! On the other hand if you have a PS3 or XBox 360, you get great graphics and…<cough! crappy controls! cough!> and…great graphics!:D Seriously though, you get to have Digital Molecular Matter and Havoc which means…yep, you get great graphics!:)
If you want a bit more of an overview of what each system’s differences are, from the Sony PS3 down to the Nintendo DS, you can check out this Behind-the-Scenes video I found a couple of months ago:
You could continue watching with this part 2 of the Behind-The-Scenes look into Star Wars: The Force Unleashed. This time around, it details the “Force Wrecking Ball” as well as the characters that surround and shape the Secret Apprentice:
This Star Wars Force Unleashed Wikipedia article talks about the characters of the game, the game engine, and most other aspects of the development of the game. If your interested about some more insider details on the Wii version of the game though, this hands-on Interview with the developer of Wii version, Krome studies will be right up your alley.
Lastly, if you’re like me, you can’t wait to read up more about the story of The Force Unleashed. Basically, it happens between Star Wars Episode III and IV and details many of the important events that transpired during that time, including the establishment of the Rebel Alliance. If you want more details on the story, check out this wiki on Galen Marek from Wookiepedia.
