I Never Finished The Simpsons Game, mostly because the game itself sucked. The Cut scenes were something that made it somewhat worth while, but why not just watch them on youtube. This is the first time I have seen the ending.  For me it was nothing to special until the very last part. That made the whole thing awesome.

E3 is just around the corner.  Everyone has already begun speculating about what Nintendo has up their sleeve.  We know just about nothing of what they have to announce.  Many believe a new Zelda announcement or even a new Nintendo handheld.  So after talking to Justin about these two speculations, I decided to look up the facts regarding Zelda and Nintendo handheld released dates. This possible could give us a clue of when Nintendo will announce a new Zelda game or even a new DS.

How long has it been since Twilight Princess was announced?  The DS was announced how long after the GBA was released?  How many years were there between the releases of Wind Waker and Twilight Princess?  Follow the jump to find out.

Rock Band
- Underwhelming - comes very late after other versions, the great features aren’t in the Wii version
- Can’t make own band members
- Drums not wireless - there was an error on the press release
- Sub-par stereo sound

Madden All-Play
- Visuals “updated” - looks like they’re tweaking with the system
- 5 on 5 mode - easier to play - ex: throw automatically
- Call Your Shot: Draw own shots - can do this online
- Overall, gameplay more fast, “arcadey” - Bozon says this isn’t a bad thing
- Core football isn’t gimped (not too much missing from other versions)
- Hardcore gamers will go for the 360 version, casual gamers will go for the Wii version

Shantae DS: In 2006-2007 we hit pretty hard, with a massive undertaking to redo the cast of hero and enemy sprites, and about half of the sequel’s backgrounds were created by the legendary Henk Nieborg (who then shifted to Contra 4). As you can see, the handheld market is again flooded, which is why we intentionally never made a formal announcement. But, you can see a first look here! Just be aware that this game exists as design, artwork, and tech only. Unlike the GBA game, there is no 2 hour long gameplay demo. 

Shantae WiiWare: Informally (and inadvertently) announced at GDC, this is an ongoing experiment in 2D on the Wii. As it currently stands, the game is very traditional as an action/platform game (no Wiimote Wagging) with its main draw being 480P 2D artwork. If the project gets legs, we’ll have more to say in the next newsletter. For now, it just looks cool! 

Shantae GBA: The 2 hour long demo of Risky Revolution exists in a near-polished state. Because there is high demand for the release of this rom, our hope is to eventually move it to a suitable platform and release it as bonus content, cleaned up and presentable, able to stand on its own as a video game “short”.
