Interviews

Graham Markay, Project Manager (Natsume), was kind enough to take some questions from us on the yet-to-be-released Reel Fishing: Angler’s Dream.  Be sure to read the full interview to see how Reel Fishing: Angler’s Dream plans to be the most fun and realistic fishing game yet. 

1. How exactly are the Wii Remote and Nunchuk used for gameplay?

Players can play Reel Fishing: Angler’s Dream using the Wii Remote as the
rod and the Nunchuk as the reel.  Depending on the player’s preferences,
it is also possible to just use the Wii Remote as the rod and use the
buttons for reeling in.  By moving the Wii Remote up, down, left and
right, the player can control the rod. We wanted to give the players the
most realistic gameplay experience, but allow the controls to be flexible
to fit with each player’s style of play.   The controls are done is such a
way that even a novice player can master them, but there’s a lot of nuance
there that offers depth and challenge for even the most hardcore fishing
fans.

2. Could you explain a little bit about the multiplayer aspect of the game?

Up to four players can play together on the same screen in Versus Mode.
There are a variety of different stages the players can compete in, with a
variety of salt and fresh water fish.  Matches are customizable so that it
can fit with any family’s style of play.
