Fancy Pants 3 for Wii
(12 posts) (6 voices)-
This topic has been discussed many times before.
After a quick search: http://www.bornegames.com/forum/topic/get-fpa-console-to-wiiware
Brad's response in that post:
FPA would very easily run on the Wii. Over the Top made an incredible looking platformer for Wii, I'd say they know what they're doing
Not sure how you can say it's not getting the numbers Nintendo hoped for, it's still selling well, all things considered.
Personally, I love the Wii, I absolutely love the pointing system (still better for core gameplay than Move or Kintect, which is ironic), and as a Flash developer, I have endless ideas for a pointing based input system (Nuclear Eagle feels awesome on it, fullscreen on a computer with the mouse driven by a Wiimote over bluetooth), so yeah, I'd love to get FPA on there.
And it would be on there, too, but the WiiWare size limitation (39 megs, last I heard) is way too small to fit the game in. All our levels are huge bitmaps, with up to 5 background bitmaps, and tons of new music. Even with a great deal of of compression, the game won't get that tiny.
More generally, though, publishers really don't like the Wii because Nintendo takes a bigger royalty cut than the other two companies, treats devs pretty terribly (takes forever to get them dev kits and support, very poor online multiplayer support), and doesn't really push games like the other two do (no joint advertising, they don't help promote WiiWare, they let so much junk through that the retail space is clogged).
The solution, apparently, is beat all of your popular franchises into submission on the HD consoles until the market is so saturated that no one cares anymore :/
@offtopic: May want to dial down the whole gun thing, we're still a family-friendly forum.
Also, even if you think the topic should be closed it's always good to provide a reason (unless it's obviously spam).
I probably will close this topic after tying up the loose ends.Posted 12 months ago # -
Hmm yes, we are a family-friendly forum, but these people obviously did not read the forum rules. If they had, they would have done a search first and not open new threads that proved to be really inefficient. Thus, in the end, these people are just asking for trouble from the rest of the community.
Come to think of it, it might be better to enforce a "Read the Rules First" policy before new members can post on this forum.

One more topic and it's the shotgun for you, is that understood?Maybe this topic I created here was unnecessary, but what do you have against the other topics I created? I didn't create just to create a topic. I created them because I wanted to ask a question. For instance, the question I asked about the Wii memory card, what was wrong with that topic? I just asked a question because I needed help. Because this is a forum about video games, I figured it was okay a ask a question like that. You don't seem very friendly, offtopic. Your shotgun reply was pretty offensive.

First thing you should do: Look if there are any topics which are related to your question! If there are any, post it there. But if there are topics which are three years old or something like that, you shouldn't bump it, just because they ARE old!
You may also like to read the guidelines of this forum: http://www.bornegames.com/forum/topic/forum-conduct-and-rules

Okay, I'm going to clarify this now:
It is assumed that new members have read the forum guidelines. So topics like this will probably be closed (again I'm keeping this open to tie up loose ends) because there is already a topic like this or very similar at least.

Again, it's much more productive and useful to tell them politely that this topic is redundant. Much more effective then posting a picture of a shotgun (no offence offtopic but you've got to understand where I'm coming from).
