Nnooo Writes Open Letter Urging NSW to Fund Video Game Development

Tynan Muddle at Aussie-Gamer.com writes: "Spirit Hunters and escapeVektor developer Nnooo today wrote an open letter to authorities in NSW, urging continued funding for small developers in the state."

The NSW Interactive Media Fund was launched in December 2010 and committed $1.5 Million towards growing the local video game development industry over a three year period. The initiative is set to wrap up in June, and the question of whether or not it will continue going forward is under review."

Wouldn't they normally just buy a company who is working on a Pokemon like a game. Then close them and make them do something else?

UltraNova2801d ago

Yeah..maybe all those Worst Company of the year awards got to them...not really. Maybe they are waiting for the P Go craze to die down and then release their clone?

nX2801d ago

Or maybe they realized that they are lacking the creative talent to come up with this kind of game. Most likely, actually.

OneLove2801d ago

There is no Pokemon competitor. Many have tried already.

NotoriousWhiz2801d ago

I probably played monster rancher more than Pokémon. Particularly the 2nd one. I wish they'd make a new one.

blackblades2801d ago

There was one called collectem that supposedly still in development for sony systems. Thing is its been in development for years and not much on it like they they taking a long break or something

detroitmademe2801d ago

I'd love a good rpg similar to Pokemon. But I'd want it to be for consoles

gamerb62801d ago

If the rumours are true then your in luck, new Pokemon game may be coming to the NX

detroitmademe2801d ago

Is it gonna be a true Pokemon game like the ones for game boy and 3ds or is it gonna be a spin off like go or that Pokemon game where you take pictures all day because the spin offs are ass

gtxgamer22801d ago (Edited 2801d ago )

If it anything like Pokemon xd or Colosseum count me in

terrorofdeath2801d ago

I guess the closest Pokemon competitor would be Ni No Kuni, I guess?

GameBoyColor2801d ago

YoKai Watch maybe? It's big in Japan at least

x_BlackRose2801d ago

Pokemon Battle Revolution was pretty awesome, but we need another game like Pokemon Colosseum, with multiple regions to explore. Hoenn, Kanto, Johto, Sinnoh. Where we can traverse all those regions defeating their respective gym leaders and Elite Fours. With all pokemon available, all wrapped up with a pretty good story. Why has Nintendo not done this yet? That has triple A all over it. Could be a potential GOTY.

TheUndertaker852801d ago

Because why do that when they can split them all like they do?

Your way: $40 game
Nintendo's way: $80 for each region then $120 for the original Blue, Red, and Yellow

I mean, you just gotta catch them all, right? Plus now they've found a way to add in meaningless accessories with the Z-Ring. $30 for the ring then $7 for a three pack of crystals to use with the ring.

PN2 Review | Going Old School With Blast 'em Bunnies

Mark from PN2 reviews Blast 'em Bunnies by Aussie studio, Nnooo.

"Blast ’em Bunnies isn’t your typical console experience. It feels more like the best kind of mobile game combined with a classic arcade shooter, brought over to the big boys leagues with extra content. It’s the perfect antidote between bouts of The Division or Halo."

Why devs still think that bring mobile games to consoles is a great ideia?
