Info here: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=397203 Anyone else remember this game from a few years ago? The guy making it had all sorts of info and tools posted to his site back then, but they've all sense disappeared. Well we may not get to play it on emulators or nes, but at least its getting released after all this time.
Not everything disappeared, he released the NES High Level Assembler. Well, maybe it's just me, but... "NES-style Grand Theft Auto demake"? That means it's a native version. No thanks. If it's not running on the real (or emulated) NES hardware, that makes it way less impressive. Everyone can do NES graphics on today's powerful machines, and while a GTA-style game is one of the more complex ones to make, I don't care enough to buy it (and the Wii I don't have yet). That being said, I don't have any doubts it'll do really well. Heck, it looks better than the GBA titles!
Looks awesome, I don't think even Mega Man 9 could run on nes hardware so the odds of a wiiware (or any dlc game) being programmed to run on nes and modern hardware is remote, though that would be very cool.
I don't see the point. When it was a NES project it was cool. You will never see GTA on the NES. But releasing it on the Wii with ghetto retro graphics does not make sense to me.
