Crazy Climber climbs onto Wii

Published by Rob at 1:08 pm

Crazy Climber

In an announcement that no one could have seen coming, arcade classic Crazy Climber will be joining the Wii’s holiday lineup in Japan this year. Developed by Jex/First, this will mark the first new entry in the series in nearly 20 years. The game will be released on December 21st and retail for 6,090 yen or, roughly, 50 U.S. dollars.

The screens released so far are, of course, from a game still in development. However, it is hard to not be disappointed with the game’s budget visuals and not-so-budget price. The developers should really consider pushing this project back and moving it over to the WiiWare service because, as a full priced retail game, it just doesn’t look like it can compete.

Hopefully Jex/First can put in some overtime and spruce up the visuals before release.

    That looks like an average Playstation game. It had better be a WiiWare game or at least a budget priced 20 dollar title.
