Nintendo service rep: Disaster announced for North America (News)

Nov 29, 2008

Numerous statements from Nintendo of America spokesman have echoed the same sentiment about the fate of Disaster: Day of Crisis in North America: Wait and see how the game performs in Europe. At this point, it's no secret that the game has sold rather poorly, which would lead one to believe that the game has a small chance of coming stateside. Strangely though, an email from a Nintendo customer representative may indicate otherwise...

Chances of Disaster in North America slim after the game fails to dent European charts (News)

Nov 5, 2008

Even though Disaster: Day of Crisis is anything but a disaster as far as the actual game goes, much drama has taken place, which, oddly enough, has been created by Nintendo. The whole game, as most know by now, is completely voiced over in English. Yet believe it or not the game still has no release date in North America and the latest news is a strong indication that the game may never arrive in North American shores...

"Whats going on with Disaster?" Reggie Fils-Aime Answers! Wants Feedback from Fans! (News)

Oct 3, 2008

What's going on with Disaster: Day of Crisis for North America?

With seemingly no presence of Disaster at Nintendo's event, it came down to our crack team of covert journalists (they're the guys waving) to get to the bottom of things. And when they caught up with Reggie Fils-Aime, alongside Mark Bozan of IGN, the question was put forth to the Nintendo of America President.

He is going to be reading this very post upon which your eyes are laid, and he will be taking note of what people want to see in regards to Disaster (so no calling out for Captain Rainbow... though that would be good, too). If you're interested in having a Day of Crisis of your very own, then do respond below.

Disaster: Day Of Crisis 'Still In Development' Says Nintendo (News)

Disaster: Day of Crisis Release Date Speculation (News)

Aug 17, 2008

Yesterday brought the news that Nintendo's oft-delayed 2nd party title Disaster: Day of Crisis, under development by Monolith, had been given a classification by Australia's Office of Film and Literature Classification (OFLC) ratings board. This has helped to renew hopes that the game will actually see release, since it seems likely that the board would only be asked to review and classify the game if it were on the verge of completion.

But, if you have been anxiously awaiting this title, this only intensifies an already nagging question: When will Disaster actually be released?

Australia Receives a Disaster Rating (News)

Aug 16, 2008

The OLFC have taken Nintendo's upcoming Disaster project and slapped a rating for it in Australian shores.
Suggesting a release shortly, after months of delays and no-shows, the action packed Wii-exclusive brings together natural disasters and a devious terrorist group out to take over the world. According to Vooks, Disaster: Day of Crisis has been given a content rating of "M" given the use of heavy violence, themes and infrequent coarse language.

Disaster: Day of Crisis lives, Classified in Australia (News)

Aug 15, 2008

When it was announced earlier in the year that Disaster: Day of Crisis was pulled from the release schdule a mere month before it was due for release many thought it was heading the way of Project H.A.M.M.E.R, canncelled. But all hope may not be gone for the title which was first revealed all the way back at E3 2006. The game has just been Classified by the Australian Classification Board and given a big fresh M for Violence, themes and infrequent coarse language. So its nothing big but could Disaster be filling in a Holiday gap this year?

Disaster: Day of Crisis playable at E3? (News)

Jul 11, 2008

Once again, Nintendo has managed to shroud themselves in secrecy for this year's E3, leaving us all to guess their plans. The latest issue of NGamer, however, promises that Disaster: Day of Crisis will be at E3. And playable. There has not been too much information on the game as of late, the most of which only reported a delay in the Japanese release date. Since then, no new launch date has been scheduled and Disaster seemed to be heading for the vaults. But, if Nintendo does indeed have Disaster playable, this game - in addition to the the possibilities of Kid Icarus, Animal Crossing, Pikmin 3, and perhaps a new Zelda title - Nintendo will have a great E3 showing.

Disaster: Day of Crisis delayed (News)

May 16, 2008

DarkZero: Disaster: Day of Crisis, which was supposed to be released in Japan on July 3rd this year has been delayed. It is now set for release in an unspecified date in the country.

The game is scheduled to hit store shelves on July 3rd, 2008. Here's hoping the game doesn't get delayed and that it finds it way to our shores before to long.

New Details from Famitsu on Wii's Disaster: Day of Crisis (News)

Apr 28, 2008

The game has been a long time in coming since it was announced prior to the Wii's launch at E3 2006. In fact, when the hammer fell on Project H.A.M.M.E.R., some feared the worst for what some consider to be an endangered species these days: A new IP from Nintendo (with Monolith Soft, of course).

But every now and then, something drops to let us know that the game is still alive, and this time, it's a glimpse at the title from Famitsu, who reports that the game is due in the Land of the Rising Sun come July, when the sun is at its rising-est, and for the US and Europe? Just "2008." Gee, thanks. Maybe it'll be here in time to get swept up in the holiday frenzy.

Super Mario Stadium Family Baseball ? June 19 / 5,800 yen (tax included)

If these dates are to be believed, it's quite possible that the North American audience will receive these games this year. Usually, games are released in North America a few weeks/months after they are released in Japan. So, it's definitely possible that we'll see these games fairly soon, or perhaps even before they come out in Japan.

The first details of Disaster: Day of Crisis - which was unveiled at today's Nintendo pre-E3 press conference - have emerged and shed a little more light on this intriguing new Wii title.
