Disaster for... um, well Disaster

Long hyped (for some reason) Original Nintendo IP Wii game "Disaster: Day of Crisis" has apparently been officially delayed to whenever the fuck Nintendo feels like it, if anything. This site is reporting that a Japanese press release from Nintendo has moved Disaster's Japanese release from July 08, to TBA.

This isn't a good sign. I just as much as anyone want to see new IPs from Nintendo that are actual games instead of sports or casual games. And this seemed to be one of the last hopes. Hopefully Kid Icarus will be revived. But that being said, here's the status of the mythological Wii titles

Project Hammer: dead
Disaster - Day of Crisis: probably dead
Sadness: ...HAHAHAHAHAHAHA, that concept art isn't a game!

So it falls to others to put new IP and gameplay on the Wii, and of all publishers, they are coming from Sega.

Even if Hammer might have fallen into obscurity, isn't delaying games something nintendo does quite frequently? As it had a release-date, it seems highly unlikely that they canned the project at this stage.

alright, awesome, one of a handful of wii games that I liked gets canned.

good job nintendo, let me guess, it wasn't casual enough?
or it didnt have enough mario in it?

perhaps, super mario world: day of crisis? would suit you better?

Wii Hate Bandwagon, leaving in 10 minutes. Make sure you're on it.

I thought Disaster officially became vapourware on its last delay about 5 months ago.

@Fantasim

If they were still seriously planning it, instead of listing it as TBA they would of put a quarter in which usually happens for big delays.

Well, everything else N puts out on the system had better be original - they blew their wad MAD early this go around.

Lessee:
1.) Zelda
2.) Metroid
3.) Mario
4.) Smash Bros.
5.) Mario Kart


All that's left is to do the unthinkable: Pilotwings.
And the world will weep with joy.
