Unreleased Vii Games
« on: July 04, 2011, 11:06:57 PM »
While I'm still waiting for my Vii to show up in the mail, I looked on Jungletac's website, and came across some really weird discoveries. Unused Vii Games? Take a look at these screenshots:

Archery?

The Basketball game that was on the Zone 60? But with the Vii characters?

What happened? Where did these come from?

Well thats weird. I guess they were either intended for the original Vii but didn't make it, or Jungletac planned some kind of followup Vii with new games? The basketball screenshot looks like a mockup though, the score being "4567123" is a dead giveaway.

well as per the first post,

so the game *did* eventually get used, but with different characters, and on the Zone 60 instead .. which is sort of a Vii-like system only with more games and a considerably less advanced controller.

my guess is Jungletac were planning either a cartridge for the Vii containing new motion-controlled games, or a whole new Vii with an expanded set of games built in, but they probably abandoned the idea (I don't think the Vii did particularly well, probably due to its relatively high price) and repurposed the basketball game to work on simpler, cheaper plug & play systems like the Zone 60.
