Sometimes is just hard to find certain Wii games in my country, Singapore. Most of the hard to find Wii games are usually those Japanese Wii games that seldom debut in other countries. One such game is Nodame Cantabile: Dream Orchestra for the Wii. In short, Nodame Cantabile is about classical music. Highly popular in Japan and Asia in 2007, you can find Nodame Cantabile in anime, manga, drama and video games. I particularly like the main female character, Noda Megumi (Nodame).
Nodame - Played by Juri Ueno
Ok, back to the game. The game allows you to make use of your Wiimote and Nunchuck to “play” different musical instruments such as the piano, violin, drums, oboe, cello, clarinet, flute and of course, have fun being a conductor. Get on the beat and your music meter will go up. Sort of hitting a button in Guitar Hero III but this time, you shake your Wiimote (and Nunchuck) or press some buttons on the Wiimote to hit the right note. The actions which you carry out will resemble the way of playing the real musical instrument in real life. 4 people can form something like a band to play a music piece at the same time.
Besides playing the piano, Nodame also loves the Puri Gorota anime.
What’s Nodame Cantabile: Dream Orchestra without Puri Gorota mini games?
Strictly speaking, this game is for Nodame fans only. You can’t find the exhilaration similar to Guitar Hero or Rock Band but if you like classical music and simple yet cute gameplay, then Nodame Cantabile: Dream Orchestra is the game for you.
As anyone with a Wii knows, the amount of storage space available in the console is meager at best. For a while now, consumers have presented lack of storage as a serious complaint about the Wii and it looks like Nintendo might actually be listening - at last. In an interview with Satoru Iwata, the Nintendo boss man revealed some interesting bits.
“Because this small number of people are none other than the most avid players,” Iwata said “we know we have to review the best possible solution to eliminate their inconvenience.”
Though nothing specific was revealed during the interview, it’s nice to know that Nintendo is taking this complaint seriously.
An unofficial version of the SNES Emulator for the Wii has been released by RobertFC, and the emulator is compatible with the Wiimote. So if you’re interested in mixing up the classics with the not-yet classics, this might be worth your download. Classic controller, multiple controllers and remapping are not yet available with the emulator, but are in the works.
The Westin Hotels & Resorts have decided to spice their fitness centers up a bit by installing Wii consoles. The hotel chain says that they’re the first in the business to partner up with Nintendo in such a manner, but Westin isn’t the only hotel that’s offering up Wii fun. Hotel Gansevoort in New York will set up a Wii in your room if you request it, and other hotels set up Wii sessions.
However, if you’re in the mood for a work out, then head over to any of the following: Westin St. Francis in San Francisco or Westin New York at Times Square in NYC. The hotel chain also intends to be one of the first to set up the Wii Fit in their hotels.
The 4 original Shadoloo bosses from Street Fighter II decided to make a comeback in Street Figther IV. The once invincible four - Balrog, Vega, Sagat and Bison, will once again appear. Feel their wrath!
Sometimes a game’s name may be quite misleading. For instance, the word “SPOGS” from D2C Games upcoming WiiWare - SPOGS Racing may represent different things to different people. Really, SPOGS stands for “Sports Player Object Gyros”, nothing more.
In reality, SPOGS stands for ‘Sports Player Object Gyros.’ This name was deliberately chosen because there is - scientifically - no other way to describe the unique characters in the high-speed arcade racer. There is no relation to British candy. Please do not attempt to eat SPOGS Racing.
The Wii Fit balance board may be a bit huge for your normal school bag so the Wii Fit Travel/Storage case from Mad Catz proves to be quite useful in lugging your board and game together to anywhere and convert that place to a mobile gym. Mad Catz also has a silicone case, an exercise mat and a rechargeable battery pak for the Nintendo Yoga device.
