Re: Battle Princess Madelyn Gets an Awesome Teaser Trailer

@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!

Re: Nintendo Download: 3rd January 2011 (North America)

@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.

Re: iPhone Success Angry Birds to Peck DS

eripmav

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.

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!

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.

@Fuzzy Thank you:)

@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.

Re: Rumour: 3DS Could Rival PS3 and 360 in Power Stakes

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..
