[Wii/DSi] GDC 2009 Info thread

Japanese musician named Tsunku contacted Nintendo with the desire to make a game based on his own rhythm theory. Iwata asked Metroid director Sakamoto to contact Tsunku. Director of WarioWare became involved. Small team put together a prototype.

"How can a good rhythm game be produced if the developer has no rhythm?" Tsunku taught developers to dance. (amusing video of dancing Rhythm Heaven team boogying down)

"First time in my career I had to approve a budget for dance lessons."

brutal :-D (poor guy)

16:53:33 - Wii Menu System 4.0 will introduce a number of improvements, such as an SD card icon that takes you to an SD card screen. It's got the same layout as the Wii Menu. But a single SD card can hold up to 240 titles.
