Frontier's Lost Winds and Nnooo's Pop launch games for Nintendo download service
Two new UK-made IPs are part of the Nintendo America launch games for WiiWare.
Frontier's Lost Winds and Nnooo's Pop arrive today in North America on the Wii-based downloadable games channel as part of the service's launch.
Other games on the slate for kick-off are Square Enix' Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life as a King, Canadian outfit XGen's Defend your Castle, US team High Voltage's V.I.P. Casino: Blackjack and Gameloft's TV Show King.
“LostWinds has a great new control mechanic that makes the game feel really fresh – I think the quality of the game and the fact it’s a WiiWare launch title are things we can be really proud of “ said David Braben, Frontier’s Chairman and founder.
