Sunday Comics: Dead Island Things aren’t looking good for Hudson Entertainment. Early reports from this week’s issue of Famitsu magazine bring word of cancellations of Bonk, Bomberman and Omega Five for the Nintendo 3DS… among others.
The US wing of the Hudson video game company, a group responsible for January’s clever Lost In Shadow, is shutting down, as explained in a blog post by a former employee who’d been pushing for a Bloody Roar revival.
Hudson officially puts a date on the brilliant Lost In Shadow, coming to the Wii on January 4, 2011. Thanks GohanEgret!
Hudson Entertainment is giving WiiWare its first (brief pause) first-person shooter in Onslaught, which also happens to be the first online, 4-player cooperative first-person shooter on WiiWare. In other words, FIRST!
What the hell is that little boy doing to that cow!? It’s okay, he’s saving the world. Hudson Entertainment has just announced Help Wanted, and new game coming to the Nintendo Wii next summer, which tasks the player with saving the world from an impending meteor strike by completing more than fifty different odd jobs, and they do mean odd. I mean, sure, milking a cow isn’t all that odd to someone used to tugging on cow teats, but for the layman it’s a bit off. Other jobs include haunted house monster, clown, sumo referee, sushi master, action hero, and many more. Somehow I doubt video game blogger made the cut, but I can dream.
Hudson Entertainment plans to pack in the Wii titles for their Tokyo Game Show showing this year, it appears.
The company says that they will have Marble Saga: Kororinpa for the Wii, Fishing Master World Tour for the Wii and Bomberman Ultra for the Playstation Network for Japan’s annual game show.
I can’t wait to get my hands on those virtual marbles. Def a first stop for me at TGS. Yes, that was sarcasm.
Hudson Entertainment is bringing their A-game to the Penny Arcade later this week… and their B, D and F game too.
The publisher announced their PAX line-up this morning which includes pinball WiiWare title Alien Crush Returns, based on the TurboGrafx-16 title; WiiWare’s Bomberman Blast, Fishing Master World Tour for the Wii, and Deca Sports for the Wii.
I haven’t had a chance to check out the other titles, but my time with an early build of Deca Sports left me thoroughly unimpressed. Now you can decide for yourself if it’s as crap as I thought. Press release and gallery on the jump.
