*Pilotwings being developed by N-Space under Nintendo

*Nintendo development group subcontracted by NCL to develop Dragon Quest for Wii launch under Square-Enix design team. (Camelot? Alpha Dream)

*Diddy Kong Racing minus Banjo and Conker. Not by RARE?

*Nintendo promising several of its experimental IPs to be shown behind closed doors. Stage Debut? Cooking Game? Symphony?

*Nintendo Stars / Nintendo Club incorporation to Virtual Console

First, source?

Second, Pilot Wings news disappoints.

Third, Who actually thought DKR DS would be developed by RARE?

Metroid Dread for the love of everything good and decent! Is there nothing whatsoever on this game?

N-SPACE?!!!?

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Disappointed about the total no show of Smash Brothers, but I knew Nintendo would save some of its load for the rest of the year-so I'll get over it.

WTF is up with Mother 3? This shit was a no-brainer for NOA and they screwed it up.

Thanks for nothing... NINTENDO!

Diddy Kong Racing has Wifi apparently. It kind of just looks like a cash-in on Mario Kart's success IMO...

I guess.

But I always thought the multiple vehicle dynamic of DKR had some serious pontential ... the river rafting races were particularily fun.

Depends on who the developer is. Would be interesting as hell if its EAD.

What's so great about PilotWings? The original was an experimental game built mainly to show off the SuperFami's graphical features.

If N-Space can show off enough of the Wii control mechanism, that's what counts. Whether the game is good or not is hard to judge as the PilotWings game don't really have a point other than flying planes. It's all in the controls more than any other game.

If Dragon Quest is developed by Camelot or Alpha Dream, it is really a good news, even if I hoped that Square-Enix would develop it. Never mind.

N-Space beghind Pilotwings: before say something, it is better to wait.

I don't think there is a chance of hell of Jungle Beat Wii for a while. Way too many DK games coming out. Could the original Mario Sunshine team be doing Galaxy? I don't see where Nintendo pulled out this new Mario team.

Are any Dragon Quest games done in-house anymore?

How about you wait for people to play it before you get all gloom and doom?

Who was the developer of Pilotwings 64 again? I think it was a company called Paradigm ...

Whatever happened to them?

Didn't they do Beetle Adventure Racing afterwards?

Yeah, I know I should, but until then I will be all gloomy and doomy :-/

Pilotwings it´s my most anticipated game for the Wii. I must admit it looked ace, but Geist was known for having slugish controls, and I couldn´t stand a Pilotwings game with slugish controls.

Well technically, Dragon Quest has never been done in-house, but companies like Armor Project are basically part of S-E.

In either case, it makes sense that a subcompany is making the DQ game but it seems odd that it's not a company under S-E. I was under the impression this game was a reverse engineering of that tv sword thing that john ricciardi posted a while back.

Whats so great? its just plain fun to play, nuff said;

and my I remind everyone that its more than just flying planes, theres also the handgliding and rocketbelt among other things;

In fact, I could see the rocketbelt being done using 2 wiimotes and working great; anyone else agree with me on this?

Diddy Kong Racing video on Nintendo.co.jp looks exactly like the N64 version. Same courses and stuff. Very disappointing if it's JUST a port.

Well the brief clip of Pilotwings looked pretty good IMO. Very clean and smooth.

Was that Pilotwings? That's what I thought... but I didn't see it being talked about anywhere so I just thought it was some third party flight simulator game. Yeah, it did look pretty decent.

Will Super Smash Brothers Wii be playable at E3?

Since it's not even in the press kit... no chance whatsoever. And virtually no chance that it'll even show up on video.

They say a lot of things...your point? Plans have clearly changed...it looks like Zelda AT launch, Mario as a contender for shortly after launch, and Metroid/SSB for 2007 as flagship titles.

Interesting if these rumors are true.

I wonder how well this DQ game will wind up selling in Japan.

And I don't mind Smash Bros. being 2007 if it's online and there's more characters. It's one of those games where I can wait patiently for it.

It's not a traditional DQ game, so I doubt it will sell more than 100k copies. Unless its price tag is really cheap. Though it really depends on how well the Wii does.
