@YANDMAN - OK, Grandpa's AI is unfinished and will be fixed. The enemy spawn system will be heavily tweaked and adjusted prior to release. Right now, it's all about getting the core mechanics in place, with the adjustments and fine tuning coming later. Things will keep being changed, altered and adjusted right up till the very end - don't worry!
Hey guys, thank you all for your comments:) For those interested, the developers have launched a Kickstarter to help pay for the Wii U devkit & the cost for porting to the platform. If you're interested in pledging, please head over to the campaign. They're only after £10K!
I have a huge donkey sum of points on my Wii. Something like 10k and nothing to buy. Why can't I shift that balance to my Wii U? Please watch the profanity — TBD
@Jumbit it's not a port, a port is when a game is literally ripped from one system and taken across to another with bare minimal changes. Ghost Mania on the Wii is of the same ilk, granted but it's a spiritual successor (sorry, pun intended...albeit a bad one). Check the thread in the WiiWare section for more info.
@Pixelman no word yet, the game will be done when it's done:) I believe the team wasn't unshackled for the festive period and haven't seen daylight for two months:)
@Argus give it a whirl, if you like puzzlers you'll like GM. It's an addictive little gem, well worth (bias aside, as a gamer/journalist) the 500 points. An impulse buy, if you will.
Great game but you know the price won't reflect the iPhone/iTouch's AppStore pricing. I daresay it won't have that much added content either...I could be wrong though;)
Ploughed through it on the iPhone though, lovely little game.
Cheers CB, controls were something we were paramount about getting right.
@Omega, we're old hats in the flying genre, having developed them for PC in the past, so it's a welcome return to the genre. We do have other games up our sleeves but as always, it's all down to how Pearl sells.
@EdEN, All eps are self contained, therefore you don't need to own them all.
@the shpydar you're too kind. I do what I do out of love of gaming and respect to both Legendo and my boss, Bjorn. Fingers crossed it'll be loved! Also, there's not many PR folk that visit forums etc at 00:15 to say hi or update the threads on their games:)
The price point was something that both the fans on here and we were extremly passionate about and we felt strongly that the right price was 700.
Thank you guys, we really appreciate the kind comments.
Put it this way, we asked your opinions on pricing, we listened and we did our damndest to get it! I personally am so pumped that the game's nearly upon us, it seems like an eternity since I first came on here!
Regarding the EU release, we're still waiting confirmation for both the date and pricing from NOE.
To render @120hz (which is what the screens would need to do for stereoscopic 3D) it would need some decent processing power. However until I see the thing running or videos of game quality, I don't believe quite as to how powerful it is in terms of poly pushing etc.
The battery life would concern me if it is as powerful as the current gen consoles..

Re: Battle Princess Madelyn Gets an Awesome Teaser Trailer
@YoshiAngemon I know. But m saying is that she won’t go down to her underwear like Arthur.
Re: Battle Princess Madelyn Gets an Awesome Teaser Trailer
@YANDMAN Just remember - what you're playing is pre-alpha code. It's got to go through a huge amount of revision before release.
Re: Battle Princess Madelyn Gets an Awesome Teaser Trailer
@YoshiAngemon Oh ya, but I meant like she's hardly going to run around in knickers and a bra.

Re: Battle Princess Madelyn Gets an Awesome Teaser Trailer
@YANDMAN Thank you ever so much, I've sent this across to the guys:)
Re: Battle Princess Madelyn Gets an Awesome Teaser Trailer
@YoshiAngemon - because the main protagonist is based on the developer's daughter? It'd be a bit weird having that element in game, wouldn't it?
Re: Battle Princess Madelyn Gets an Awesome Teaser Trailer
@YANDMAN - I'm Dan and I'm working with Casual Bit Games. Would you mind sharing with me what you felt was 'off', controls wise?
Re: Feature: How Battle Princess Madelyn Is Fulfilling One Little Girl's Dream Of Starring In Ghouls 'n Ghosts
@markie7235 Correct, the difficulty will scale to the player's skill.
@Drummertist - correct sir.
Re: Feature: How Battle Princess Madelyn Is Fulfilling One Little Girl's Dream Of Starring In Ghouls 'n Ghosts
@ieatdragonz What old game? The only thing around previously was a prototype..

Re: Interview: Retromade Games On Developing Desert Strike Tribute Hell IX For Wii U
@sinalefa thanks, very kind:)
Re: Interview: Retromade Games On Developing Desert Strike Tribute Hell IX For Wii U
If you have any questions, feel free to ask. I'll answer what I can and get answers from the team the ones I can't.
Re: Interview: Retromade Games On Developing Desert Strike Tribute Hell IX For Wii U
@bezerker99 don't you mean besides Madden and FIFA?
Re: Interview: Retromade Games On Developing Desert Strike Tribute Hell IX For Wii U
Hell-IX is our primary focus atm. Hopefully we'll hit the target and release on Wii U:)
Re: Interview: Retromade Games On Developing Desert Strike Tribute Hell IX For Wii U
Thanks for the positive comments, guys. Remember that the video is WIP footage, so isn't anywhere near final:)
Re: Developer Interview: Dark Tonic Games On The "Awesome Potential" Of The Wii U
Blimey, you wouldn't believe who works for these guys..
Re: Nintendo Download: 3rd January 2011 (North America)
@vaguerant You hit the nail on the head, a port is exactly that. No original code from Spooky, what-so-ever, is in GM. No need for hostility.
Re: Review: Ghost Mania (WiiWare)
@ Ultranintendofanboy, no it's not. It's not the same game.

No Legendo love!?
Re: Ghost Mania Coming To Haunt WiiWare Soon
I have to put on my 3D Realms hat, Pearl Ep.2 will be out when it's done. Difference is, unlike 3DR, we WILL deliver:)
Re: Ghost Mania Coming To Haunt WiiWare Soon
Ping! Nice to see tips being posted;)
<gets shoes on>Omega, Pearl bland!?</gets shoes on>

Re: Look Out, There's a New Pearl Harbor Video on Your Six
Cheers Ren. If you're in doubt, check out the forum thread. I'm sure it'll help you make your decision.
Re: Review: Pearl Harbor Trilogy - 1941: Red Sun Rising (WiiWare)
Thanks Tate24
Re: Look Out, There's a New Pearl Harbor Video on Your Six
Devkit runs through a PC, thus the sneaky cursor:)
Re: Review: Pearl Harbor Trilogy - 1941: Red Sun Rising (WiiWare)
But the all important question is SolarJetman, did you enjoy the game?
Less than 24hrs to go until EU/AU release!
Re: Review: Pearl Harbor Trilogy - 1941: Red Sun Rising (WiiWare)
Looks like what?
Re: Review: Pearl Harbor Trilogy - 1941: Red Sun Rising (WiiWare)
You took the words out of my mouth there rwq, you trying to steal my job??

A Swede chap commenting on a Swede game's thread?
Re: Review: Pearl Harbor Trilogy - 1941: Red Sun Rising (WiiWare)
Guys at NL, a huge thankyou from the Legendo team. This is a superb review and we're absolutely made up that you loved our game!
Also a huge thanks to all of you who have bought the game so far and have laid down your praise to us. Thank you:)
Re: Nintendo Download: 5th July 2010 (North America)
All you EU chaps who asked and asked, check the thread on the forum:)
Re: Pearl Harbor Trilogy - 1941: Red Sun Rising
Thanks burnedmatch:0
@mariofanatic128, sorry for the late reply. We've learned alot since 3M and we're also old hats at arcade plane style shooters!
Re: Nintendo Download: 5th July 2010 (North America)
'ey up chaps.
All will be revealed soon regarding the EU release:)
Re: Nintendo Download: 5th July 2010 (North America)
@WolfRamHeart, thank you sir! Very kind words indeed:)
Re: Nintendo Download: 5th July 2010 (North America)
Thanks guys, we really appreciate the support.
It's funny, alot of comparisons have been drawn to Rogue Squadron. One we're really flattered to receive!
Re: Nintendo Download: 5th July 2010 (North America)
Thanks chaps. I feel (as do the rest of the team) so nervous!
Re: Nintendo Download: 5th July 2010 (North America)
Pearl's not interesting!?
Re: Take Off with Pearl Harbor on July 5th
Thanks Rogues, it's fantastic to know that people are actually setting points aside for Pearl!
Re: Take Off with Pearl Harbor on July 5th
A bit like its PR guy, I hear he's rather lovely too..
Re: Take Off with Pearl Harbor on July 5th
Thanks guys.
@Scottie one thing we've always insisted upon since we started the development of Pearl is that ANYONE can pick up and play it.
@CB MIGHT!? I expect you to buy the WiiShop dry!

Re: These Pearl Harbor Paper Planes are Confusingly Cute
@Brandonbwii we're doing our best to make sure that the game launches at a price below that!!
Re: These Pearl Harbor Paper Planes are Confusingly Cute
Go on, get folding! They are quite easy, honestly!
