I'm starting to care. The yahoo screens looked much better and having played Disaster DOC this looks sort of fun, but the big plus is having fate of atlantis on there.
http://uk.gamespot.com/wii/action/indianajonesandthestaffofkings/news.html?sid=6207400
They have a video here of Fate of Atlantis here on Wii.
This is from the interview too:
GS: Did the platform decisions affect development?
MV/JS: Because we wanted to utilize all of the available features that each of the platforms allows, we went about designing the game from the ground up on the DS, PSP, and Wii while using the same overarching story. This allowed us more freedom to really perfect the gameplay that would make the game stand out on each platform: stylus-based combat on the DS, amazing use of physics-based puzzles on the PSP, elaborate environmental HotSet usage on the PS2, and innovative gesture system for the whip on the Wii.
Reggie on selling 3rd party Wii games
Fils-Aime: In the end, the developer needs to create the content, make it world-class. They need to market it and make it available, make it known to as many consumers as possible, to take advantage of the opportunity. And we hope that that continues not only on E- and E 10-rated content, but on T- and M-rated content.
This is so simple but so many developers dont do it.
true, but maybe nintendo could help with the 'make it known' bit. some publishers don't have the means for extensive advertising and aren't big enough to have their own booths at events etc. i'm not saying nintendo should pay for their advertising (though they could if they wanted to be nice) but they could at least name check a few key 3rd party developed games at important events instead of doing half hour presentations of wii music. they could also give them more time and space on the Nintendo channel ... instead of showing me bloody adam & joe tell me about brain training or whatever.
they helped ubisoft at the beginning by pushing games like red steel and rayman and the rabbits because they thought it would help the wii to launch with a seemingly strong line up of titles. look how well those games sold!
Look at a game like professor layton, Nintendo published it for the west (Level 5 went it alone in japan and were rewarded) and pushed it to massive best seller status. had somebody else published the game nintendo would have happily let it sink to obscurity.
so while what reggie is saying is true, i think nintendo could make a huge difference by helping some more 3rd party games with making them known to consumers

Listen to Wu-Tang and watch Kung-Fu
I've noticed here in the UK, Microsoft have to be paying for some advertising here, a good chunk too as multiformat games like RE5 and GTA IV make it look like its a 360 exclusive or something and it always advertises the console at the end of them.
I think that Nintendo could pay for more supportive marketing but I think that developers have to firstly make a triple A commercially viable game in the first place and market it well themselves. There is no point in making a great niche game and wondering why it doesn't sell or making a game that isn't AAA and then wondeirng why it doesn't sell.
Companies like Capcom can spend $20 million advertising Lost Planet and then spend $1 m advertising Okami in print only and wonder why it doesn't sell?
I'm sitting here halfway across the world and I've got RE5 adverts on my rental dvds. Where is that for other games? Companies have priorities but there is a level of support that is lacking for some titles over others and they can't expect people to go out and purchase games en masse if it doesn't even appear that the publisher can effectively communicate why we should buy their titles in the first place.
There are a couple of new Indy shots I haven't seen.
Then there are the better screens from last week:

C'mon like it hasn't been done before!
Link!
For the record I hated Puzzle Fighter. Still don't get why people gush all over this.
Oh and what gave the joke away immediately is that this would have still been an original game for the Wii. Capcom doesn't do that. Just remakes, revamps, and ports.
That ain't Puzzle Fighter!
Edit: Doesn't it look like Dee Jay is Flippin' the Bird in the background?
Ah, Zack and Wiki say, "Hello."
Oh my bad. Super Gem Fighter. Yeah I hated that one too. Though I'll give it props for having Dan as a character. And yes, DJ does look like he's flipping the bird. Either that or giving his signal to Steel that he's planning on coming over to his place later that night.
True. You've found the one exception. And if I may go out on an unpopular the limb that game is one of the most overrated games of this generation on any console. It was no different than half a dozen other single level adventure games from over a decade earlier, yet people wouldn't shut up about how unique it was.
I agree. I don't even like that game. I just like being a smart ass.
Finally you admit it.
