New blog post time!

This week's game is GhostSlayer, one of the very few WiiWare titles to support MotionPlus. This game is essentially a "Rail Slasher" that has you slicing up ghosts, somehow, and doing so is as awkward as it sounds.

...But hey, there are still fun little quirks to appreciate!

GhostSlayer

GhostSlayer is the kind of game that this blog lives for. You haven’t heard of it, I hadn’t heard of it until now, and boy is it weird and interesting! There’s really so little out there like it; i…

Matt Sefton Remembers Maboshi’s Arcade
Mat Sephton, aka gingerbeardman (Mastodon, Bluesky), creator of a GotY Playdate game, spent some time tracking down the origins of MaBoShi, aka Maboshi's Arcade, one of the most unique and distinctive independently-made WiiWare games. He blogged about it back in 2013 (anna anthropy did so too back then). Since then t

Fluidity es un videojuego en el que tenemos que llevar de un punto a otro una cantidad concreta de agua.

Lo hacemos girando el Wiimote simplemente.

Muy relajante y retante por momentos.

Al terminar cada fase, se contabiliza la cantidad de agua que se ha podido llevar al final de la fase.

Es de wiiware.

On this day in 2010 HB Studios released one of two HB Arcade games for WiiWare, Disc Golf. I was the one of the designers on these games, which were basically a chance to develop something small to gain some experience self-publishing on the platform. #Wii #WiiWare #HBStudios

Meant to post these earlier. I snagged a cheap LCD TV from #Savers since it was pretty small, and I could fit it where I normally use my work laptop. It also has a #VGA connection, which our main TV lacks.

Plus, it should be easier to use for play testing, or just when I'm in the mood to play something on original hardware, since the main TV is wall mounted and I have to contort myself to plugin/unplug cables.

I tested a few games using my best cables for each; no crappy component cables (except for the #N64, which had #SVideo, so it still doesn't look that great). I noticed one of the games I tested, #WWFAttitude on #Dreamcast wouldn't display at all. My guess is that it's using some different display resolution that doesn't play nice with #VGA, perhaps since it's an upscaled port of the #PlayStation version. The other game, #CastlevaniaResurrection (a canceled, incomplete game), worked fine.

Pretty pleased overall. This will do until I finally move and have space for a #CRT #TV to play the older stuff in the proper manner! #Wii #WiiWare #WiiShop #Caslevania #CastlevaniaAkumajōDraculaMokushiroku
