EA: Nintendo not supporting online games enough (News)

Sep 20, 2008

TVGB: "The title of this story seems like a pretty obvious statement to almost any gamer out there, especially those of us with Wii's who want the system to have a more robust online feature set. However, the difference between the community bitching about the matter and a developer actually coming out and saying their not getting enough support is monumental. That latter happened just a few hours ago at EA's Bloggers Day for The Sims franchise."

MySims Moves To The PC (News)

Jul 7, 2008

Kotaku writes: "I was pretty disappointed with MySims for the Nintendo Wii. While it did allow me to create a digital mini-Crecente and guide him through a cute and colorful world, which has long been a dream of mine, I found it lacked a certain something. It just wasn't fun. Could an online component change that? We'll find out this October when EA releases MySims for the PC."

MySims Help Out Charity (News)

Oct 8, 2007

MySims was released on Wii and Nintendo DS a couple of weeks ago, and has been doing quite well to boot. In keeping with the games' theme of helping out others, EA have been generous enough to commission a set of accessories inspired by the games with all proceeds going to the Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children.

MySims (Review)

Sep 18, 2007

Sept 18, 2007 Despite the many PC versions being among the most successful games ever made, we have to confess our utter indifference to them. Theyve cropped up on Gamecube in the past, and weve always had difficulty finding anyone who wants to review them, such is their grinding unsuitability for console platforms and mouseless controllers. Not even the prospect of bricking up a Sims bedroom door and waiting for him to expire in squalid conditions ever gave us much genuine enthusiasm for the ...

E3 07: MySims - hands-on (Preview)

Jul 11, 2007

Ready for Animal Crossing for the Wii? Tough. It doesn't exist yet. What does exist, however, is the equally adorable MySims, which marries the gameplay of the beloved PC games with cute-as-a-button anime presentation that looks incredibly at home on the Wii. We were instantly interested and happily surprised by the game's depth. In fact, we're really surprised at how much the game retains from its big sister. Though the graphics have been simplified, everything from the mouse-like interface ...

May 10, 2007

Even the most macho, beer-loving, male gamers will find themselves squealing like little schoolgirls when they witness the saccharine charms of MySims for the Wii. The striking similarities between the look of the MySims Sims to the Wiis Miis are most noticeable. Only, the Sims, are more customizable, quirkier, and - dare we say - unbelievably adorable. They laugh, cry, dance, and start reading the morning paper when they use the bathroom. But, “These characters were being designed way ...

MySims (Preview)

Apr 25, 2007

Previous console Sims games have left us a little cold. There was something about those self-consciously kooky characters and their worthy-but-dull daily routines that made us think the entire series is much better suited to casual players on the PC, where the games rank among the all-time bestsellers. But MySims could be the one to change our opinion. Its clearly something completely different, and the simplified structure is designed from scratch, exclusively for Wii. The aim is to attract ...

New MySims video might be too adorable (News)

Mar 20, 2007

The good news for all you Wii-having cuteness cravers out there is that the new MySims video is chockablock full of adorable Mii-esque characters. The bad news is that after you view this video, your regular old plain-Jane Miis might not seem so charming. After all, not only are the MySims characters much more customizable in terms of appearance, the range of actions they can perform far outstrips that of your Miis, and increases the potential for adorable scenarios exponentially. It might be ...

EA announces MySims for Wii and Nintendo DS (News)

Feb 26, 2007

EA has announced a MySims, a new game in The Sims franchise specially designed for Wii and Nintendo DS.

MySims begins with players creating their own toy-like Sim that reflects their own personal style and attributes. Pig-tails and baseball caps to dreadlocks and Mohawks, the options are there to create a really unique Sim.

In MySims players will move to a delightful but disorganized town where they can shape everything to make it their own. Using a selection of building blocks, unique patterns and engaging creativity tools, players will be able to design furniture and appliances - even new homes and businesses.

My Sims: First details uncovered (News)

Feb 20, 2007

My Sims, the cartoonified re-imagining of EA's world-beating life series for Nintendo's Wii, will see you sprucing up a decrepit and rundown village, designing and building your own furniture and structures, and stepping in to help out the locals, with the aim of creating a charming new community. The first solid gameplay details for My Sims, which is also set to launch on DS, are uncovered in the latest issue of Official Nintendo Magazine (UK). But for a quick info-burst on how the game ...

First MySims details arise (News)

Feb 15, 2007

1 CommentsOther than the cutesy make-over, very little has been revealed regarding MySims, in development exclusively for Wii and DS, until now.

MySims features a simple block-building mechanic which lets you "build things like chairs and tables from scratch instead of just ordering them from a catalogue." You can also modify houses in an equally flexible way.

Another new feature is one called "Essence" which lets you extract the, err... essence of objects you acquire. Then you can use this Essence to decorate your many created objects. You can also plant seeds to grow flowers, adding a Harvest Moon-style farming system into the mix.
