August Games

Because our work schedules had to get shifted around, the next episode of the Jon and Carlos Show is going to have to be delayed till next week. However, look for a new Nickel Film podcast within the next couple of days. Ryan and I will be talking about Salt and Dinner for Schmucks.

And Yet It Moves has received an official release date for WiiWare: August 23. It's been quite a long time since I've done any downloading for any platform. I'm pretty excited for this one, since I've always been a fan of unconventional (as well as conventional) platformers. The multiplayer aspects of Castlevania: Harmony of Despair makes it all the more intriguing than it already was just from having the Castlevania title. It mashes a lot of recognizable characters together from different games, so I don't think that this one will be fitting into canon.

I've long suspected that NBA Jam would be jumping platforms, and EA has finally confirmed this. However, only a basic version (with online play) will be available via download when you purchase NBA Elite 11. The question is: will people be willing to pay $60 for a EA NBA title, which have long ago lost their luster? The short answer: yes. The long answer: maybe.

One last thought: Sega claims that it is nearly impossible to please Sonic fans. Noted. But could you try pleasing someone? Anyone?
