Joining Nintendojo for a few minutes, is Luc Bernard, creator of Eternity's Child on PC and the recently released Mecho Wars on iPhone, both of which are targeted for release on WiiWare. Bernard agreed to talk a little about the world the two games exist within and what else he may be working on.

Hardcore Droid:
"Mecho Wars is a turn-based strategy game with great potential. There’s good diversity in the types of mechs you control and enemies you face. The colors are vibrant and there’s a lot of attention to detail in the graphics, especially for the in-battle sequences. There’s even an evil henchman in a ridiculous top hat! Unfortunately, the game is buggy to the point where playing it is far more frustrating than fun. This game crashes like it’s getting paid for it. And the paycheck’s coming out of your pocket."
I have the playstation minis version and was surprised how long i played it. As a fan of Advance Wars i liked this as i could see a resemblance.
