More Spong rumours

The biggest rumour SPOnG has heard today is that New Zealand Story is going to be released for the Nintendo DS at some point in the near future.

You remember, New Zealand Story! â€“ it was the Amiga game that was a bit like Super Mario Bros crossed with Bubble Bobble and starred the chunky little yellow bird wearing phat blue trainers? Yes, that New Zealand Story.

Anyways, rumours are all well and good. But at some point you just have to find out if the rumour is true, or if its just been made up by some bored blogger somewhere, of which there seems to be about ten million. Or so rumour has it.

Enough of this! We called Rising Star Games. We spoke to a PR rep. He ummed and aah'ed a little, then told us, â€˜Yes, it is definitely happening. Weâ€™ll have concrete information for you in the next two weeks.â€

So there we go. New Zealand Story is coming to DS very soon. Watch this space for info and, hopefully, the first screens at some point over the next fortnight.

Spong has outdone itself this time. NZS was an arcade game before the Amiga

Ooh, according to ds-x2.com, Gunpey is coming out for the DS. Someone alert Koworld.

RE: New Zealand story, weren't Rising Star's previous efforts (Bubble Bobble and Rainbow Island) meant to be pretty poor?

EDIT: More info and screenies of Gunpey over at 4cr.

Settlers is coming to DS as well. Too bad no multiplayer (from the first details that is).

How I long for some decent RTS games like Alpha Centuri/Civilisation/Red Alert/...

Yes it's a handle that clips onto the controller to make it more gunlike.

This, apparently, is Wii's power supply:

Don't know if it's for real, but it looks...kinda big! Can't really tell, though...

No bigger than the 360's power supply

Looks about the same size as the Gamecube's supply, if not a bit smaller.

I'm thinking you mean the 'gunlike' wiimote there but that piccy has a joystick on it.

On the otherhand what's the point of making the nunchuck controller more gunlike.
