Gameloft developing a strong line-up for WiiWare

Posted by Divyang on April 1, 2008

Gameloft®,, a leading developer and publisher of video games for mobile phones, announced today it is developing a strong line-up for WiiWareTM, Nintendo’s new downloadable game service for the Wii systemTM.

With games set to launch in Europe, Unites States and Japan, Gameloft is planning a diverse line-up that consists of Block Breaker Deluxe, Midnight Pool, Midnight Bowling and TV Show King. Each game will either be completely original to WiiWare or vastly enhanced and redone for the platform. In addition, all the games are created to complement the Wii RemoteTM, a motion sensing controller which allows the player to interact with the screen.

“We are delighted to be working with Nintendo on the WiiWare,” said Michel Guillemot, president of Gameloft. “We have great confidence in the games that we are developing, several of which include award winning established brands and original creations specifically for WiiWare.”
Block Breaker Deluxe is the best selling brick-breaking game, over 8 million copies sold, that has been vastly enhanced and improved for WiiWare. The longest, most feature-rich brick-breaker game created, the game is easy to navigate by moving the Wii Remote left and right to shift the pad and connect with the ball.

TV Show King is an original game only available on WiiWare. The game takes on the role of a mock game show testing players general knowledge.
Midnight Pool and Midnight Bowling, are top sellers on the mobile platform, but have been completely redone with new features for WiiWare. For Midnight Pool, the Wii Remote is used as a cue and in Midnight Bowling it substitutes for the bowling motion.
Gameloft is a Nintendo Official Publisher in Europe and the United States .

Quake II for S60 3rd edition FP1 released

Posted by Divyang on March 27, 2008

 

Quake II online, both software and hardware renderers in the same package. This time only for phones with FPU, I will consider doing one for phones without fpu in the future. Also N95-1 users can only use the software renderer as the OpenGL renderer will need more memory than it has. Needles to say, that you still need to update to firmware 2.x.x.x in order to play even with the software renderer.

Download & more info

so go ahead and start playing!
