Conspiracy Entertainment announced that it has joined into an agreement
with Japanese developer Hyper-Devbox to publish a futuristic 3D mech
shooting game for - under the working title of "Shoot Out" - for Wii.
"This
game was a hit within the arcade/coin-up market and is now being
retooled for the Wii platform," said Carlo Perconti, president of
Hyper-Devbox. "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."
According to CFO of Conspiracy Entertainment
Keith Tanaka, Shoot Out is planned to release in Q2 2007 and is "just
the beginning of [the company's] intention to enter the Wii market."
Conspiracy Entertainment Europe announced in November 2006 that the
company plans to bring two racing games - Baja Mania and Baja
Destruction - to Wii in Q1 2007, though it's unknown if the titles will
remain exclusive to the European territory.
