Disaster: Most overlooked (and mysterious) Wii game

Back at E3, Disaster: Day of Crisis was one title that really stuck out for me personally. Wikipedia reports that the game is being developed for Wii as part of Nintendo’s initiative to create new franchises. Disaster is being developed by Monolith Soft which staffs several former Square employees and will be published by Nintendo at an unspecified time.

From the game synopsis: “Survive nature’s most devastating catastrophes in Disaster: Day of Crisis, a panic-inducing survival game for Wii. When a wave of natural disasters pummels the United States, a rogue special forces unit takes advantage of the chaos and seizes a nuclear weapon. Players race a car down a mountain to escape a roaring pyroclastic flow, dodge toppling buildings during a devastating earthquake and swim for their lives in a raging flood. No matter what happens, fight to survive.”

I know the survival story has been played out, especially in late 90’s movies, but I’m hopeful this title can deliver on motion-sensing controls. For whatever reason, Nintendo has taken down the official game site. Regardless, is anyone else excited about this one?

  1. I am very interested in this game. The little information about it looks very interesting.

  2. They pulled it mostly because it's not a launch title and the page was from E3. They pretty much erased everything fro mthen after the Launch day was announced.From a list I saw, the game is TBA 2007, along with Project H.A.M.M.E.R.

  3. This was the game I was most interested in after I saw the mini-teaser from E3.. I was saddened when they stopped listing the game at all.I wonder how the game will turn out?

  4. I have been one of the few people who has been looking forward towards this game since E3. It looks amazing. There is an extended trailer of it, but i don't know where it is. Try typing Day of Crisis on youtube. People should really see it. Again, it looks amazing and i can't wait to get my hands on it when it gets out!!!

  5. I was really intrigued by the teaser trailer, but there is still very little information on it to really be looking forward for the title.The game's idea is very original (for games), though, so I'd like to read some reviews…
