What ho, loyal followers, and welcome to the Thursday edition of Hey! Look! Listen!
As always, I am your host Oliver Motok, and I’m really tired for some reason. Sounds like we have a super-sleepy edition on our hands. I doubt it will make a whole lot of difference, honestly, since I’m skilled at writing in a variety of mental states, but we’ll see how it goes.
Onward and forward!
Nintendo Hopes to “Surprise” Zelda Fans at E3 2010
I want another console Zelda. As I’ve stated on numerous occasions, The Legend of Zelda is my favorite videogame series of all time, and these three long years since Twilight Princess have been painful indeed. Yes, I know Spirit Tracks is forthcoming, but it will likely just whet my appetite further for a true console release.
But there is hope! Speaking to UK’s Official Nintendo Magazine, producer Eiji Aonuma had this to say:
“I hope that we can show you something at the E3 show next year, and it is something we are hopeful will be surprising.”
Nice. I’m hopeful as well. I mean, that’s pretty vague, but I’m willing to latch onto anything at this point. He went on to say this:
“…we have been trying something new in terms of the structure of the Wii version of the new Zelda game this time. I am really hopeful that people will be surprised with the changes we have implemented for this Wii version.”
Yeah, me too. Man, I really AM tired. That wasn’t even a real news story, was it… sigh.
No More Heroes Coming to PS3, 360
Nice. VERY nice. I’ve yet to play No More Heroes on the Wii, and I might as well wait for the sure-to-be-prettier version now. According to some Famitsu screens that surfaced on Wii@Everyday, Suda 51’s critically acclaimed action game will soon be released on the Xbox 360 and PS3. No real details have been announced, but it’s definitely happening. Woo!
Sony Launches the PlayStation 2 In Brazil
No, it’s not a misspell. Poor Brazil, so behind the times. Regardless, I’d be happy for them, but it reportedly costs R$799, which roughly equals USD $465.
Four hundred and sixty-five dollars. To buy a PlayStation 2 in Brazil. Just when you thought you’d heard it all, eh?
I apologize for this disgustingly short HLL, but frankly there isn’t much happening in the gaming world today. And, as I’ve stated before, I’m really damn tired. But don’t fret, I’m sure I’ll be back to form soon. Look for a full review of Assassin’s Creed II soon, and of course, another Hey! Look! Listen! on Tuesday next.
