3-D mech shooter coming to Wii

How would you like to have a futuristic 3D mech shooting title for Wii? Given all the possibilities one can imagine with the Wiimote and Nunchuk, we can say that this indeed is interesting.

We brought the topic up because Conspiracy Entertainment is planning to release one in Q2 of 2007. The game will be based on an arcade game created by Japan-based Hyper-Devbox. We only know that the working title for the game is “Shoot Out” and the background story involves alien robot machines trying to invade Earth, and Earth is defended by freedom fighters fighting for, well, freedom.

Anyway, the revelation came with Conspiracy’s announcement that it recently inked a deal with Hyper-Devbox. The latter’s president, Carlo Perconti, had a few things to say about the newly forged venture:

We are very excited to collaborate with Conspiracy to increase the intensity and enjoyment of the game, while remaining true to its original and much-loved design and aesthetic. The freedom of Wii’s distinctive handheld wireless controller is ideal for creating a 3D ‘shoot ’em up’ experience and will allow players a greater feeling of interaction.

This is great news indeed. However we’re wondering about their other titles: Baja Mania and Baja Destruction. Conspiracy mentioned that it will be releasing the games on Q1 of 2007. But this time, the company mentioned that “Shoot Out” will actually be its first Wii game.

So what happened to those two? We’ll look into the matter carefully and tell you whatever we find out. In the mean time, when it comes to a mech Wii game, it is all green for us here.
