Konami taking arcade shooter Target: Terror home to Wii

Or: they better not, like, release this.

Hey, cheer up! At least it's better than Disney Sports (being a Nintendo fanboy at the time, I originally said to myself that I would've preferred Konami not making games for the Gamecube at all).

I can see where you're coming from on the price tag. If they price this over $25, then there's no sale from me.

Don't blame the Wii for someones choice to use shitty (non-filtered, no less) sprites made with what looks like a camcorder. It looks like an arcade title made in 1996 that got shelved for 10 years. I'm pretty sure, (based exclusively on these shots alone), that it would look almost exactly the same regardless of what platform it was on: garbage. The N64 could probably handle that with ease, all by itself. :P

The Wii deserves better than to be used as a third-party gaming landfill who's sole reason for living is to serve as a receptacle for first-party exclusives.

yeah seriously. We know all about the wii's capabilities, mr. xsilencexcorexx...xxxxxx

We've seen Galaxy...we'll be alright

sunglasses = requires less acting

No, sunglasses = we can use the same people over and over again for different, er... "roles".

Let's go with FREE.

they should PAY ME to play that piece of crap. i thought the 90's were gone?

Dammit! Now that you've said that, I want them to make a game.

And I don't mean 'The Snuggler'. If there is anyway for them to take their show and produce it in game form, I would totally pay 50 dollars for that.

Spagett!

That is the greatest show in the history of the universe.

You're kidding right? Under Nazis and zombies, terrorists are at the top of the "okay to shoot" list in games. Hell, there have even been games with zombie nazis!

That's what I said!

I guess Police 911/The Keisatsuken/Police 24/7 would've taken too much effort, and we all know how much Konami hates *that*.

"we're getting a second rate FMV lightgun game that was outdated by 10 years when it hit arcades and bombed."

Seriously, read a book! You probably should have taken a look at the article before you decided to show off your lack of education on the matter.

Here's the article you missed:
http://onnintendo.com/Index.aspx?page=1&post=2&year=2008&month=1

If you don't like that site, just type in 'target terror wii' into google. The same article is posted everywhere.

"...Target: Terror™ is currently in development for the Nintendo Wii™. The game is based on Target: Terror Gold, the top-grossing arcade game of 2006..."

awesome!

i really am going to buy this day one.

Wait, you really worked in this game? That's kinda of cool.

And yes, I am going to shoot you. That's what friend and random blog commenters are for.

Just because you posted this I might give the game a rental.

Travis so hit this right on. This game is gonna kick some serious ass. Ya ya, the graphics are kinda cheesy...but thats not the port or the Wii, its the arcade game and it was intentionally meant to look that way.

If this was just some shoot em up rail shooter it would be lame. But have any of you played this in the arcade? It's awesome. Ninjas throwing exploding turkeys, terrorist chicks wearing latex and leather and god knows what else, the mini-nuke golf balls, I mean what more could you ask for. The end result is this game is alot of fun so feel free to keep bashing on the graphics and refusing to play the game because of your assessment of the three screenshots (probably taken with a cell phone). Noone cares if you miss out on the game but when your friends buy it or get it on gamefly dont be surprised if they get addicted to it. This is one of those games you can play for hours and still never get bored of dismembering terrorists and zapping the crap out of people with the shocker weapon.

Oh, as far as drinking games Travis, there is a post on kotaku.com talking about 2 of the drinking games already. This IS destined to be the next cult classic people; so jump on the bandwagon or get lost in the shuffle.
