We're used to seeing several huge titles coming from either America or Japan that wow us from start to finish. Although pOp doesn't quite do that, it's definitely one of the more solid offerings on Nintendo's recently launched WiiWare service. A rather perplexingly named Nnooo's (Pronounced NO!) first game shows that Australia's got talent. Who would've thought a game about popping bubbles would've been fun?"
Player Attack: If you wanted to know a little more about how Aussie developers Nnooo managed to become the only self-published Australian developer creating games for Vita, here's your chance. We caught up with Nic and Bruce from Nnooo late last year at GCAP, and chatted all about the company's three major games: Pop, Spirit Hunters, Inc and - of course - escapeVektor. At the time, the company had only just started chatting to Sony about the development deal, instead seeming to pin their hopes on the 3DS version of escapeVektor which was also announced this week. How times change!
GamePron: Regardless of where you live in the world, a bargain is still a bargain, and the Aussie App Sale is certainly packed with great deals. It’s the third year of the Australian-made showcase, and there are already 26 awesome games and utility apps up for grabs.
Evan Campbell reports:
''Nnooo may be a recently established company, but Creative Director Nic Watt and company have big plans. We got the chance to discuss the strengths and weaknesses of the WiiWare title Pop, along with details about future titles, the competition and their Pokemon MMORPG concept.''
