A few e-mails got sent over to us (thanks everyone!!) about Hudson dropping Virtual Console support in North America to focus on WiiWare. Don’t worry they aren’t giving up on releasing classics! We asked Mike Pepe, Director of Marketing, about the rumor. Here’s what he had to say:
“Although WiiWare has been very successful for Hudson we have every intention to continue supporting Virtual Console. We are very pleased with the service and are happy to make available products that have been fan favorites in the past. Creating new games on WiiWare and releasing past ones on VC are two separate initiatives that we intend to support.”
Pepe also asked which Hudson games we would like to see on the Virtual Console and offered to pass over the favorites to the development teams in Japan. Post suggestions in the comments! We’re going to compile a list and send it to Hudson next week.
I guess I’ll start with Faxanadu, but that’s probably a licensing pipe dream so I’ll go with the unreleased Adventure Island 4.

Three flavors of the Idolm@ster will take stage on the PSP later this month. Since those games are based on the original arcade game Namco Bandai must have something else Idolm@ster in development. How about taking the series to the DS?
This is, in all honesty, a wild guess. However, it’s the only thing that neatly fits with three trademarks registered by Namco Bandai on Japan’s trademark database. On December 5th they reserved the rights for Dearly Stars, Dressing Sweet, and Dream Symphony for use with video games. The nature of the names suggest the three trademarks are linked. Also, they can be abbreviated to “DS” and publishers still have a thing about naming Nintendo DS software something DS.
My guess is these are going to be subtitles for upcoming Idolm@ster games. What do you think they will be used for?

The Wii Nation have spoken: Wii Fit is no fad.
Last week I got into a bit of metaphorical hot soup when a Forbes article quoted me as saying that I didn't know a single person who bought Wii Fit and used it routinely after a month.
Now I do.
Between the dozens of emails I received and the follow-up story that ran on Yahoo, I now know of lots of people who not only still use Wii Fit, but love it.
And that shouldn't come as a surprise. When I said I didn't know anyone who continued to use the bit of exercise gaming from Nintendo, I meant that literally. It stands to reason that a game which just last month sold more than three-quarters of a million copies would have quite a few health-conscious fans.
The Wii, and January's top selling game the Wii Fit, are helping to keep an entire industry afloat.
Not to look a gift horse or a contingent of casual gamers in the mouth, I quickly rounded up everyone who emailed me and turned them into my own person mini-focus group.
Here's what I learned.
Most of these gamers bought the Wii for family use or for their children and then started horning in on the gaming action.
Once they purchased Wii Fit, most of the people I spoke with used it five to seven days a week. Those efforts, they told me, netted them everything from a better sense of balance to losing 50 to 70 pounds.
But are they gamers? For the most part, they were, with all but one of the people I spoke with owning at least one other console over their lives. Some currently own multiple systems. One owns a PlayStation 3, Wii, Xbox 360, DS and PSP. Most also own quite a few games.
I also asked them about how they found out about the Wii and if they shared the good word. Most heard about the Nintendo console from friends or family and plenty went on to tell friends and family to go buy a Wii creating a sort of organic marketing campaign without any help from Nintendo.
These people certainly aren't hardcore gamers, but they're also not the type I'd typically identify as casual gamers. They are a new breed of gamer, hardcasuals, if you will. Gamers who, for the most part, have limited time and interest in gaming.
Instead of viewing video games as a time-consuming hobby, they see it as an amusement or perhaps, in the case of Wii Fit, a way to make something generally disagreeable more fun.
While this group of 30 or so gamers certainly aren't statistically relevant, I think their take on gaming, coming from a place where Nintendo's casual Wii has taken root, offers some interesting insights into the way the phenomenon has spread.
And they are certainly a type of gamer that publishers other than Nintendo are pursuing. With titles like Jillian Michaels Fitness Ultimatum 2009 and My Fitness Coach both in January's top 20 games and Electronic Arts preparing to roll out their own take on Wii Fit, I think it's safe to say developers don't see the Wii Fit as a fad either.

Speaking to Eurogamer, Resident Evil 5 producer Masachika Kawata intimated that he'd like to see more of Resident Evil on Nintendo's waggling financial giant. Said Kawata, "Personally, I would like to create something on Wii in the Resident Evil family." He further stated that the team doesn't know what it would be, as it's been hard at work on Resident Evil 5, but asked gamers to "watch this space." Thus far, staring at our computer monitor has resulted in nothing but eyestrain.
Kawata also spoke briefly to concerns raised about Resident Evil 5's control scheme, saying that the team "reflected" on the control scheme for some time. While Kawata expects some may dislike the controls, he -- and the team -- believe it "does not reflect negatively on the game as a whole," but is instead "part of a forward-looking process." Kawata hopes that even those who dislike the controls will enjoy the overall product.

New from Red Squirrel:
AnyTitle Deleter MOD is an unofficial mod by Red Squirrel of tona's AnyTitle Deleter.
It keeps all original tona's AnyTitle Deleter functions but it allows the program to show the real names of titles instead of just ID numbers, making it easier to select which ones you actually want to delete.
From MOD v3 it has some new features, as a installed titles backupper, or the possibility to exit rebooting the Wii.
Note: Real names of titles come from an external file ( database.txt ) and so can be edited and updated by everyone.
MOD v4:
-Now the backup function will save the title's name too (taken from external database.txt!)
-Now the program will take only the first 40 chars of the title name from database.txt (to fix visualization issues)
-Removed the attached WAD to avoid illegal issues.

Leading video games publisher and developer NAMCO BANDAI Games America Inc. today announced that We Ski & Snowboard has gone gold for Wii. The sequel to last year's top-selling snow sports title not only adds snowboards into the mix but also features longer runs, enhanced gameplay and a crazy new trick park. We Ski & Snowboard will shred its way into stores on March 3, 2009.
"The original We Ski set the standard in downhill games combining intuitive controls, balance board support and huge environments to create a totally immersive skiing game." said Todd Thorson, Director of Marketing and Public Relations for NAMCO BANDAI Games America Inc. "Now We Ski & Snowboard takes it to the next level combining both skiing and snowboarding, even more massive, open architecture environments and exciting extras like snowparks and even more tricks. This is the complete interactive, snow resort experience"
In We Ski & Snowboard, breathtaking environments unfold along the sprawling vistas of beautiful Mt. Angrio, from snow blanketed plains to eerie crystal caves. Perform over-the-top aerial feats with rails, fun boxes and a huge half-pipe at the Jamboree Snow Resort to really put your skills to the test. Also, adding the option of using the Wii Balance Board accessory provides an even more authentic winter experience. Up to four players can enjoy the thrill of superior snowboard and ski functionality while shredding down 3000 vertical meters over two colossal mountains.
Further testimony to the realism and fun of We Ski & Snowboard are the marketing partnerships and programs with the U.S. Ski Team, U.S. Amateur Snowboard Association and winter sports publication Powder Magazine. These distinguished institutions will be represented on the slopes as their logos are viewed adorning the trick park environments and conveyances of the game. Lending their names and testimonials to the winter sports phenomenon adds a whole new level of authenticity to an already impressive title. Pros and amateurs alike will enjoy the slopes of We Ski & Snowboard.
