Default Wii E3 News

First titles are coming in.

No More Heroes 2
From Famitsu (through NeoGAF):
- Story : it's been 3 years since Travis became the Number One assassin. Santa Destroy is now at the hand of big companies which thanks to massive investments, transformed the small town into a big city. And not only is it the time Sylvia Christel chooses to suddenly reappear into Travis' life as an organisation agent, but his friend Bishop also ends up being involved in a pinch with some bad guys. Just the time for Travis get back to the grind and face some new battles...
- Wrestling moves are back, and along with some fresh dual-wielding swords action, they promise a more varied battle system.
- New characters introduced : an afro dude, Nathan Copeland, ranked 50th on the UAA ranking, and which is apparently a Travis fan ; as well as a mysterious beam-weapon wielding school girl, which seems to be related to Travis somehow.
- Famitsu's website should have a trailer on May 30th, and they'll also start taking applications for a T-shirt design contest.

Flip's Twisted World
From Cubedł:
Our first real Super Mario Galaxy clone! You play a Wizard's pupil in a twisted world, where you can turn the world around to change the gravity.
Looks kind of bad though:


The Grinder
An online coop horror FPS by High Voltage Software. See other thread or read this article: http://wii.ign.com/articles/986/986663p1.html

Gladiator A.D.
A gory fighter from High Voltage Software. I'm not excited, but see the other thread or this article: http://wii.ign.com/articles/986/986261p1.html

Fragile comes stateside.

If there’s one thing Zelda fans know at this point, it is that a game in the series is in development for the Wii. However, according to speculation from IGN, Retro Studios was working on an entirely new Zelda title at one point. More than a year ago, the company apparently was doing the next Zelda or something big with it. Though, for one reason or another, they stopped development on the title. The rumor was circulating the internet for a bit, but IGN was confident in their sources to the point where it was almost posted on the site. In the latest Nintendo Voice Chat podcast, the IGN Nintendo Team did state that Retro Studios is, again, no longer busy with the rumored game.

Quote:
In The Lord of the Rings: Aragorn's Quest, preparations are underway in Hobbiton for a great party to welcome Aragorn, King of Gondor, and honour Samwise Gamgee for his service during the War of the Ring. The children of the town are eager to learn more of this great man and so Samwise, now Mayor, embarks on a tale of the revered warrior, Strider—as Aragorn is known in his Ranger days - and his most valiant battles. Players assume the role of Aragorn and embark on his greatest quests from The Lord of the Rings trilogy as they wield his sword, bow or spear on foot and on horseback through an action-packed gameplay experience. On the Wii platform, two-player co-op gameplay featuring Gandalf will allow kids, families and friends to work together in the heart of the action.

Debut trailer for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Smash-Up.

http://blogs.popzara.com/index.php/item/868 Edit: BaB already posted it, see the embedded version 2 posts up.

They put smash in the name. Sigh.
The gameplay looks like a slow and uglier version of SSBB.

This new version of Wii Fit is apparently going to have online functionalities and improved accuracy for the measurements. A transcription of the article from Nikkei Shimbun (paper) also confirms the name "Wii Fit Plus".
As for the new Mario game, it's only mentioned that it's supposed to hit on the second half of this year.

Could be a Mario Party game.

I expect Zelda before Mario... but Zelda also needs more work, so who knows?

I would have said that was true before the N64, but it seems we get more Zelda games a generation than Mario platformer.

Mario 64 to Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask.
Mario Sunshine to Wind Waker and Twilight Princess
Galaxy to TP

And the rumour never said it was a pure Mario game.
Could be a new Paper Mario or Mario and Luigi 3 or Mario Party, who knows.

Well, they've been working on a new Zelda for how long now? Probably since before TP, so that's 3 years. SMG has been out for 1.5 years?
Zelda needs more time because of the story, the environments, the weapons, etc. Mario just has jumping and levels. They got the jumping right, now all they need is levels.

Sort of.

Anyway, I really expect Zelda before Mario... and I want some serious Zelda revelations.

I hope this E3 doesn't suck as bad for Nintendo as it did last year.
