When one of the world's greatest movie directors and most creative minds decides to make a video game, what is he looking for? Just something he can play with his kids.
Boom Blox, a collaborative creation by Steven Spielberg and Electronic Arts, is part of a three-game deal between Spielberg and EA. According to Amir Rahimi, senior producer, "Steven came up with the idea for the game after playing Wii Sports with Shigeru Miyamoto. He then came to EA with a very simple and universal idea to build a game that leverages the Wii Remote and allows players to stack up blocks and knock them over. It was also very important to him to create a game that he could play with his family."
With the Wii U coming out tomorrow the staff of VGutopia decided to take a look back at the top 10 Wii games that came out over the past six years.
On the eve of the Wii U, The National Post's Post Arcade team looks back at 10 Wii classics.
From fun times with everyone’s favourite plumber to stretchy, googly-eyed balls of goo [there's] no better way to bid your outgoing Wii a fond farewell than to scrounge around the bargain bins of used games stores and grab a few of these bona fide classics.
Monster Hunter Tri- and The Last Story (which I need to finish still) are some games that I certainly will not forget.
GamesBeat reached out to some key games industry figures (from Nintendo, 2D Boy, Gaijin Games, and more) to ask which Wii titles they think deserved a wider audience. Here are their thoughts.
There's so many great games on Wii that get overlooked, and then gamers complain about no new games... How about A Boy and His Blob, Sin and Punishment 2, Madworld, Lost in Shadow, Lit, Dead Space Extraction, Fragile Dreams, No More Heroes 1 and 2, the Res Evil Chronicles games, Sakura Wars, Lost Winds, Tatsunoko vs Capcom, Epic Mickey, de Blob, the Bit.Trip games... That's totally ignoring any first party titles, and I'm probably forgetting a bunch. With La Mulana and Retro City Rampage and Last Story coming out, the Wii has been a lot of fun!
Zack & Wiki takes my pick. Really hope Capcom would do a sequel. Wishful thinking at best.
I did play some of these games:Cave story,Boom blox(didn't really like it)Fire emblem,Wario Land shake(see boom blox),&Excite truck
have to check this game out as well..
