Nintendo Power October 2007 Issue Update

In summary (possible spoilers in this update, so please be aware):


1. Nintendo Power hasn’t heard any updates regarding Brawl having an online mode or not.

2. Trauma Center sequel will have a two-player co-op mode, introduce new characters/story/operations and the story will involve a “shocking conspiracy” that will “rock the medical world”

3. Tales of Symphonia sequel is entitled “Tales of Symphonia: Knights of Ratatosk” and it will follow three years after the original game. Plenty of new dungeons to explore, Lloyd and other memorable characters will return and a new monster-breeding-capturing element will be in the game

4. Bleach: Shattered Blade will release in October 2007, as well as NBA Live 08.

5. Super Mario Galaxy Feature: Story - “Every hundred years a comet passes over the Mushroom Kingdom and rains down magical stars and stardust, and as Princess Peach and the citizens of the kingdom are celebrating the centennial event, Bowser and his legions attack. As Mario attemps to put a stop to Bowser’s shenanigans, but things go awry: the next thing he knows, he finds himself on a mysterious moon high above the Mushroom Kingdom.” The game will have 120 stars to retrieve and will feature 40 galaxies and six major regions. Gateway Galaxy provides a planet-hopping romp through space in which you’ll be chasing space rabbits (who are really stars), collect star chips, fight a gargantuan Goomba to get a key and more. Star Dust Galaxy, you’ll use Beam Stars to maneuver amid space debris, journey across an old rocket, rescue toads and more. There are also multiple missions in a particular galaxy like in Egg Planet Galaxy. Cookie Factory Galaxy features plenty of moving platforms, bottomless pits and more. Power-ups include: Super Mushroom (it increases your health to max), Invincibility Star, Fire Flower, Bee Mario and Boo Mario suits.

6. Batallion Wars 2 Feature: Story - “The Solar Empire, Western Frontier, Anglo Iseles, Iron Legion, Tundran Territories and Xylvania are all fighting over a mysterious super weapon.” The Navy in the game plays an important role in the game. You could use fighter-planes in the game. Online modes only allow two-players for Co-Op, Assault and Skirmish.

7. Creator of Pac-Man - Toru Iwatani interview excerpt: “Entertainment requires change and fresh, new ideas. Without them, people will certainly get bored. I’m sure that Namco Museum Remix will deliver fresh, exciting gameplay that will only be experienced on the Wii. I think (in the future) that a hybrid game system combining consoles, handhelds, arcade games, PC’s and mobiles may be developed.”

8. Nintendo Power’s Best of E3:
1. Super Mario Galaxy
2. NiGHTS: Journey of Dreams
3. Zelda: Phantom Hourglass (DS)
4. Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles
5. Mario Kart Wii
6. Contra 4 (DS)
7. Zack & Wiki: Quest for Barbaros’ Treasure
8. Wii fit
9. Soulcalibur Legends
10. Mario and Sonic at the Olympics

9. Game Ratings:
Metroid Prime 3 Corruption - 10/10
Madden NFL 08 - 8.0/10
Carnival Games - 7.0/10
Alien Syndrome - 6.0/10
Boogie - 5.5/10
Dave Mirra BMX Challenge - 4.0/10

10. Next Month will feature a Metroid Prime 3 Corruption Mini-Guide.

CosGrove's Thought: Wow this months issue is gonna be awesome. Look at the perfect score Metroid Prime 3 got. It's like WOW. Could it be better then Twilight Princess?

Man, I love Trauma Centre and now I cant wait for the new one. CO-OP MODE! Thats awesome! I always wanted a co-op mode with my Trauma Centre Second Opinion game.

Check out the Super Mario Galaxy story. It sounds the same as any other Mario game. Mario is having some party and Bowser comes and captures Peach. But this story sounds much more interrasting once its on the screen in your homes.

Well it is Nintendo power.

MP3 will be awesome. Probably GOTY, but I think Bioshock might get that.
