Julian, we Nintendo fans were crushed when you decided to jump ship to the PS3, and release the motion sensitive Wii. You delighted us with Rogue Squadron, but you just had to crush our hearts with the jumping ship to the PS3 front. Well, how did Lair end up doing, huh? I hear it was pretty bad, Julian. So, today we hear that you are officially developing at least one non Virtual Console game for the Wii? Given your last release, I don't know if I should be excited, but none the less here you are, back at the doorstep of Nintendo, developing some unnamed game. Hope it is better than Lair, but hey, that should be easy, right?

Well, I am sort of excited. Factor 5's games were, and are, visually stunning. Factor 5 also was a provider of middleware solutions for the Nintendo 64 and GameCube. Knowing this, I hope that Factor 5 puts other developers to shame with graphics. If anyone can push the envelope, it is them.

At the same time, they might be, like many other developers, in for the quick cash in. I certainly hope such is not the case, but I guess we'll find out for sure once we know what exactly it is that they are developing for the Wii.

Julian, please do not disappoint us. You've already done that once before.

These are the same guys who said the Wii was just a gamecube in disguise. Now they come crawling back and all credibility is lost because they couldn't stick with their convictions.

Now that they aren't in bed with Nintendo as a close 2nd party they won't blow anyone away with anything. No MusyX, Turrican userbase who will buy faithfully or Star Wars license to guarantee success, we'll see what they are made of now without the crutches.
 
@c1390:

Exactly. That's why this is hilarious.
 
I hope Lair 2 rocks.
 
Maybe one of those minigame compilations like Lair: Raving Dragons or something.
 
I thought they were going to be doing a PSN game or two? Maybe they will work on both platforms. I hope so.
 
They aren't abandoning PS3...
