"Wait, they LOST money on World of Goo? Jeez. I hope they've made that $28,000 back..."

The estimated revenue only from the WiiWare version (60% from the overall revenues) is $2M+. Source: VGChartz.com

Ricardo91: We are doing our best. We are making games for you and not for ourselves.

PALgamer: you're right. But our tracks are bitmaps based and not tile layers, so we can't make a classic track editor. Sorry!

OK! Let's summarize your needs and ideas for Str33t Racing!

• control system w/o (default) and w/ (optional) motion sensitivity
• decent weapons and damage system
• multiplayer (split screen or even more online)
• a good name without l33t words

Street Spirit Hyper Speed Racer or only for your pleasure Str33t Sp1r1t Hyp4' Sp33d R@c3r

ness: You can find more WiiWare sales data on vgchartz.com (currently down).

Bass X0: our game play a little bit different. We haven't got any locked tile on the board.

The graphics is not everything. A good example is Defend Your Castle for WiiWare. It has stylish but not so detailed 2D graphics, top notch game play and sell more than 250,000.
Much more important is spirit of the game play in my humble opinion.

Shadx: Str33t Racing maybe is not a puzzle game. At least, I hope not....

AlexSays: You are right! It's a bit too early to talk from the price, size, etc.

Virus: We are doing our best.

Tides of Chaos: thanks but I think it's natural. We make games for our customers (for you) and not only for ourselves. If We would like to make good games We need listen to your feedback! ...and we want.

Tornado Man: we are in the early stage of development. I can not answer your questions now. We would like to sell our games from 400 to 800 Wii points. But you know, Nintendo has the last word.

longtimegamer: maybe.

longtimegamer: We will release the multiplayer version as a free update and not as a new game!

longtimegamer: yes, of course. We would like to make different car categories, difficulty levels and car tuning/settings features in the game.

Nintendork: I think the best control system for this game is the classic controller based. But we would like to make a game for "everybody". The default control will the classic nunchuck based (without motion) but you can change it on the settings.

Doogle: Str33t Racing is a working title. I will post an early video in the next month. I hope you will suggest a good name for our game!
We develop casual games since 2005. Mahjong Zodiac is our best casual PC game. It's a mix of 3-matching and mahjong games with a storyline.

Nintendork: We are big top-down racer fans here in Artex. Our personal favorits are the Super Cars II, Skidmarks and Roadkill on Amiga. We would like to make an uniqe 2D racing game. We will release a single player version at Q3 2009 and an enchanced multiplayer version Q4 2009 or Q1 2010.

Hi guys!

6x% for developer, 3x% for Nintendo
