One of the first titles announced for WiiWare finally sees the light of day.
Among the very first games announced for WiiWare, we might have expected to review Gravitronix around two years ago. But, as they say, life gets in the way. Plans change, things don't work out the way we expect them to, and release dates slip further and further away. It...

Remember Gravitronix? Of course you do. It was that game that was announced waaaaaay back in the mists of time - in fact it was one of the first WiiWare games to be confirmed.

With two games already previously announced, this week's new releases aren't very surprising, although many will no doubt be disappointed that a certain major WiiWare title Europe got last Friday is not part of the lineup. Final Fight 2 is arguably today's biggest new game, as it's really the only one we know a lot about...

News Fresh Details About Gravitronix
Cast your minds way back to the early days of WiiWare. A few developers spilled the beans about the games they were working on. One of those developers who were around at the very beginning were Medaverse with their innovative action/battle game Gravitronix. Heck we first posted about it back in October 2007!
Since then we’ve done an interview...
News Gravitronix - Still Alive And Kicking!
Since our interview with Jesse Lowther, lead designer and CEO of Medaverse Studios way back in February this year, you would be forgiven for thinking that Gravitronix is never going to come out. After all, normally by now we’d expect to see some screenshots or PR hype.

Vanquish your opponents with four different projectiles and the powerful beams of your gravity platform. Intercept attacks and take careful aim at exposed vulnerabilities. Deflect incoming projectiles or capture and charge them with energy for devastating explosive attacks. Team up with a friend and battle through campaign mode, or recruit up to eight players on a single Wii™ system in versus mode for an all-out battle. Customize your matches with a variety of different options, such as flooding the arena with projectiles or making the game insanely fast. No matter how you like to play, grab your friends and have a blast.

I want Wiiware soon! $5 is a steal!
I am saving 500 points for this!
If it has good physics im in.
A battle game where you use shapes sounds like fun.
Hell yeah! I love physics based games.
I don't understand what this will be... hoping for screens soon.
sounds to me like SSB
Multi-player battle style Elebits? Maybe though I am really interested in this game as well! Maybe I'll use the left over 500 from twist and paint on this title?
Of all the announced WiiWare games, this one has me the most intrigued.
The price is nice too!
I'm intrigued myself and I was hoping it would launch on May 12th. I'm anticipating the day when it's added to the WiiWare collection. I can't wait!
And if the physics has any resemblance to Elebits, I will buy this game in a heartbeat, especially for the 500-point price tag!! (I loved Elebits! I can't wait to buy it someday. )
i wonder what the story will be about?
Hm... Who knows. If there even is a story.
I wish more information was released about this game. I keep getting the feeling that i'm really interested in this game to find out i know next to nothing about it.
This game looks awesome! 5 bucks 4 eight player!
i don't get what you do on this game. just pick up shaped and throw them at people?
I think its more than that strade, probably involving some strategy or something because of them talking about physics per object (like I know what that means ).
I'm probably wrong, and I'm sure someone here knows more about what that means.
i would need to see what it looks like to see if i really want it
@strade32 and RetroWare
Yah, that's exactly what they mean. Seems like they are going for a cheap Boom Blox, only with less replay value, which is the major appeal of Boom Blox. I'm not too optimistic about this game, but I guess I'll have to wait and see how it actually plays before I make my opinion about it, though.
...except that nothing they've said suggests the game is anything like Boom Blox.
Most descriptions have said it involves twisting the Wii remote to move a paddle back and forth in a territory with gravity beams at your disposal...and it's 2D.
Gravity beams? well, I guess that explains the name. I was exited by Niceguy's description, but if what you say is true, ETSM, then I am less than intrigued.
this game i might get but ill just wait for the review or more info
"The game is planned to be released when WiiWare debuts in 2008."
Cancelled?
Haha I just changed that! I spoke to Jesse a while back and Gravitronix is still under development, it just all appears to be taking a LONG time!
Does 8 player mean it will have Wi-Fi, because if it does, it's gonna suck, your not gonna get a good Wi-Fi game for $5.
i will definetly get this game
@weegee
for 8 players 4 people use the wii-mote the other 4 use the nunchuck
Well, after having played Strange Attractors 2, I now have very high standards for games that utilize Grabity, and I don't think it'll live up.
Hopefully 8 players equal Wi-Fi. If the online play don't lags it's a total steal. But it will be questionable without Wi-Fi. If this game gets Wi-Fi it will be in my Top 3 most wanted games.
this is one of my most anticipated games
Wow, how long is this game taking? I want it already! And if it has wi-fi, even better!
@WindOnFire
samer
Still, if its taking awhile, it means they must be working hard on it. Im OK to wait, just so long as the final product is good
@wifi Questions
I was posting on their website and they mentioned how they had to throw out the online idea..
Alwell.. the 8 player still sounded nice =p
I want this game to come out!! >_>
@WindOnFire
yea probably i can wait. besides i got helix and bomberman to keep me occupied for now
Geez... We've been waiting a long time
Perhaps a Boom Blox / Geometry Wars battle game? If so...
@ Terranigma
Plattchen also took a long time to be developed,so don't get your hopes up too high. But I have to admit that this game does sound awesome.
I find it funny how this game has been announced since before Wiiware launched, and there's still hardly anything known about it! there aren't even any screenshots!
I'm thinking it'll be a bomberman-type game, but instead of using bombs you throw shapes at people. Hope there's wifi.
Can't be too bad at 500 points.
I've been waiting for this for ages. I wish we'd hear something soon.
yeah... maybe its cancelled?
No Gravitronix lives! I chat to Jesse everynow and then, we might even be seeing screenshots soon!
Keep an eye on their blog for more info.
how soon?
Still no screenshots!?!? Grrrr....
Like Terranigma, I too am starting to feel as if this game is cancelled.
I hope it does come out, this game had me intrigued. This game reminded me of Bomberman Blast, although I don't know why.
The game concept sounds really cool. Hopefully the pictures will be polished and show off the game in its best light.
I think these guys appeared with a few comments in official nintendo magazine. It was a recent edition of the magazine. That suggests it IS very much alive and kicking as they say. It was a general article regarding wiiware.
Finally! Heaps of new info from their blog.
"Gravitronix will feature a 21 level campaign mode for 1-2 players. It offers 10 regular levels aimed at teaching you the gameplay and 11 challenge levels aimed at making you jump out of your chair and scream with joy when you finally beat them."
"we've finally nailed down some details about Grav's gameplay which we're 90% certain won't change before release.

Great, but where art thou???
It shouldn't take this long to create a WiiWare game. Some WiiWare titles have been given sequels already.
What can we honestly expect from the game? Look at the blog: A few guys working part time, no prior experience with ANY development, admitted that they've made lots of mistakes, etc.
Oh no, the trailers out and its disappointing.Guess we'll have to wait for release and a review
Uh, I think I'll pass on this one after seeing that video. Looks too confusing.
Ugh, I feel the same way cheetahman91
So after loooooooooooooooooooong wait, it's finally here. (in NA anyways)
