"I hope you were with us last week, because we found out about a game that may never make it to the Wii. n-Space’s ‘Winter’ looks like an extremely promising title, but publishers were too scared to take a chance on it. While that is sad news, there is a silver lining.

Winter as pitched to publishers during the better part of two years ago. The Wii market has grown by millions since then, and various publishers have seen that more than just mini-game collections can succeed on the Wii. Just last Friday we learned that more de Blob would be on the way, thanks to the warm reception that Wii owners gave the original I.P.. I’m glad that news came out, because n-Space can use it as an example of one more original I.P. that saw success on Wii.

IGN shared the story of ‘Winter’, and the rest of the internet ran with it. I talked to Matt Casamassina to get the ball rolling on some bigtime ‘Winter’ support, and the first phase of that kicked off with a petition. Thanks to all the sites that participated, we have now seen the petition hit 10,000 signatures in less than a week. I can’t thank you enough for all the support you’ve thrown at the petition.

The fun doesn’t end there. We would love to see the petition to continue to climb. The higher the signature turnout, the more impressive the push will be. If you haven’t done so already, click here to sign the petition. It may seem like a futile step to some, but trust me…these signatures have made a difference in the past, and they can do so here.

I continue on looking into ways to promote the game. I have to talk to Mr. Casamassina this week to see what else we can do, and discuss some ideas that have been floating around. Of course, you are once again welcome to share your thoughts on the game, ideas to spread the word, and anything else about the title in our comments section below.

Guys, this is the third time we’ve had a campaign like this. The first time got us Sam and Max on the Wii, as well as huge Telltale support in general. The second time definitely got back to Capcom, and they are well aware of our efforts. Let’s make this third time the charm."

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @AncientBoi, Yeah, believe you can do PSP games as well. But a Pi5 is much powerful in comparison.

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Not sure about other models of Pi4 but the Pi 4 B with 8GBs OCed to 2Ghz handles PSP really great except like 1 game I found and it is playable it just looks bad lol Motor Storm Arctic something or other.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Other games I can have turned up to like 2X and all kinds of enhancements, Motorstorm hmmm nope 1X and no enhancements lol

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I will admit that one does seem more interesting than the usual Ambernic ones, and I already liked those.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I dread the price point.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    This looks like one of their premium models, so... $150 :glare:

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    To me that seems reasonable.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I mean since basically all the games are errmmm free lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I mean yeah sure but the specs are the same as a $50 model, it's just those pesky "quality of life" things driving up the price, like an actually working speaker, or buttons that don't melt, and stuff like that.

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think all in my Pi 4 was well north of 200 bucks 150ish for the Pi 4 the case the fancy cooler, then like 70 for the 500GB MicroSD then like 70 for the Xbox controller. But honestly it's a nice set up I really enjoy and to me was worth every penny. (even bought more controllers for 2 or 4 player games.) hmmm have never played any 2 player games yet :(
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah that's what I hate about the RPi, it's supposedly $30 or something but it takes an additional $200 of accessories to actually turn it into a working something.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    yes that's the expensive part lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I mean sure it's flexible and stuff but so is uremum but it's fiddly.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah a lot of it I consider a hobby, using Batocera I am constantly adjusting the collection adding and removing stuff, scraping the artwork. Haven't even started on some music for the theme... Also way down the road I am considering attempting to do a WiiFlow knock off lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I want everything served on a plate plz ktnx, "work" is too much work for me.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Hmm, with that in mind, maybe a complete out-the-box solution with all the games collected, pacthed and optimized for me would be worth $150 :unsure:
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah it's all choice and that's a good thing :)
