For the three of you that were not totally psyched with Namco Bandai's Wii support at E3 (Only Final Furlong was playable, but I hear it was a rollicking good time), we've got some great news. The company that brought us such titles as Baten Kaitos and Time Crisis have announced two untitled projects for the Wii via their Japanese press site.

We really have no more details, but if something arises concerning "New Action Game" or "New RPG", we'll be sure to let you know.

I'm a bit curious on what exactly that "New RPG" Namco Badai are working on for the Wii. While I don't mind another Tales game, the Tales series been getting far too many releases of remake and such. I would like a breath of fresh air. A new RPG series!

Anyway, nice to see Namco Bandai support for the Wii, which we knew about since E3.

Lol a Power Rangers RPG

Seriously thought, we can only hope it's a "BRAND NEW" RPG. But nevertheless it's still good to hear that the Wii is being backed. We can only wait for the sales chart after launch....

Time Crisis lends perfectly to the Wii. Do not be surprised if that game gets a sequel for the Wii.

As for the RPG, only time will tell. I'm still waiting for a Tales of game to be announced for the Wii, so it wouldn't bother me if it's that game. Having only ever played one Tales of game, Symphonia, the series is still new to me, so another Tales of game wouldn't bother me in the slightest, the opposite infact.

Now they must announce an exclusive Soul Calibur for Wii. Please. =D

Hey if we're really lucky we might get like 10 DBZ games and some top notch Power Rangers games that'll really make the Wii feel special.

I do like the idea of Time Crisis on the Wii though... Although I don't know if I'd be more inclined to play it with the 3D Mouse, or hope that they release a gun. I'd have to see how exactly you hold the mouse to see if I'd be comfortable using it for a light gun game.

Something like this?

Even without that, the way you hold the Wii remote is kinda like a gun anyway, point and fire with the trigger underneath [Like the N64 Z button]. It has the funtionality of a 3D mouse, as well a light gun.

A new tales game would be pretty rad but yes, I think the Wii is Nintendo's last big shot at proving a point. This time they really do have a unique console, that can find itsself tis own loyal market so I'd like to see some new ongoing rpg series come out of that too. They've got the console, now get the games.
