Nintendo wrote:"Independent developers armed with small budgets and big ideas will be able to get their original games into the marketplace to see if we can find the next smash hit," says Nintendo of America President Reggie Fils-Aime. "WiiWare brings new levels of creativity and value to the ever-growing population of Wii owners."


Something for Lun to look into?

Why not.

There's absolutely no harm in giving a huge moneymongering corporation the intellectual property of a modern day genius.

Or something along those lines.

Anyways, if might be good, if he can maintain intelectual property and a big voice in what comes out of the concept then it might be worthwile, seeing as nintendo's resources might allow the game to be remade in a graphic format more pleasable to the common oaf.

I just realized that playing the plunge would be awesome with wii-motes.

Each move has a direction, drop slash is an overhead strike, cross sweep is a side to side swipe and lunge cut would be a simple cut forwards, or possibly any diagonal motion.

Holding A would be risk attacks
Holding B would be blade art.

altho it would be interesting for the start, it would get boring quick.

If Lun wants a way to get his future games out there, this might be one of the few windows into the industry available that would allow him to maintain creative freedom. I have no idea if he'd go for it, though.

I think that's an amazing idea!

Not if you cut out the turn-based system and make it an awesome fighter with cool blade art moves. Imagine Traziun and Gaius' attacks.

I cannot begin to imagine the number of Wiimotes broken for trying to initiate some of them :lol:

And if there was a mulitplayer mode, think of all the retards charging at eachother smashing their wiimotes together.

My family has some spontaneous compulsion to get a Nintendo Wii now. My mother came in asking how much a "WiiWii" cost. I couldn't reply for a full minute because my sides hurt. It was out of nowhere! I didn't expect that question!

I can think of the scene where they actually slash at each other and the actual eye-to-eye tension... :lol:
