Disaster: Day of Crisis is the kind of game that Nintendo needed this year at E3. A hardcore, first-party original IP that takes advantage of the
Wii's capabilities. Unfortunately, Cammie Dunaway and the rest of the NOA crew forgot about this sleeper hit, but the geniuses at the European division have been working hard to publish this game in time for the holiday season, according to a report by Nintendic.
Along with the fresh-off-the-press October 24 release date comes an official feature set that was leaked.
Quote:
*Survive nature’s most devastating catastrophes in Disaster: Day of Crisis, a panic-inducing survival game for Wii. In a devastatingly short period of time, an unprecedented wave of natural disasters has pummelled the United States. On top of this inexplicable series of disasters, a rogue special forces unit has taken advantage of the chaos and seized a nuclear weapon. Only Ray, a former member of an elite rescue task force, has decided to take a stand.
*Cutting-edge physics and gripping visuals re-create the sheer terror of major catastrophes.
*Players race a car down a mountain to escape a roaring pyroclastic flow, dodge toppling buildings during a devastating earthquake and swim for their lives in a raging flood. No matter what happens, fight to survive.

As an American, I have to say that I'm a bit jealous seeing my European friends get a hardcore game like this, but if it sells well, it might come stateside sometime in 09.
