Various online shops have now listed two new Doctor Who related games to be released by Nintendo. On the DS platform comes Doctor Who: Evacuation Earth, whilst the Wii platform will see Doctor Who: Return to Earth; it is uncertain when these scheduled to be released (Amazon lists them for the 29th October, Play for the 19th November).

No other details on the games are known at present.

I saw this on Gallifrey Base this morning, people on there were talking about how the Box-art looks like someones just gone on photoshop.

Anyway, I'm gonna get these, even if they're rated 3. Probably gonna have to import Tye, lucky me living in the UK! (Will Japan get these games, just wanna know.)

Trust you to judge the game by the rating.

This looks like it's bound to be shovelware.

That basically it means it's gonna be an extremely slow and boring game, that requires a lot of wiiremote shaking.

Shovelware? :gyroidconfused:

This morning everyone was going on about how this could be fake and now information is popping up everywhere!

rofl, look at the rating.

What's wrong? Not mature enough for very mature and edgy gamers like yourself?

That's your opinion though...and I like games where you have to use the wiimote.

Games with low ratings such as (using the UK rating system) "7-12+" can be fun, but when something is rated 3+ it means its equivalent to the Early Childhood rating, we have here in the Americas. and games rated at the "EC" rating, generally only have content suitable for little toddlers, or autistic kids. For example; Franklin the Turtle, Dora the Explorer; Journey to Purple Planet, Elmo's preschool Deluxe Edition, etc etc.

Well the fact that it's rated 3 will rip away the essence of what is Doctor Who, not to mention the fact that it'll most likely be aimed to as young of a crowd as possible, and therefore removing 90% of the story aspect.

True, most/basically all of the Doctor Who episodes that are on DVD are rated 12, so technically the games should be rated 12.

I have a strong feeling know this is going to turn out to be shovelware.

What is this world coming to

 

[Bacon Boy]

I don't understand why people can't come up with original ideas anymore? I mean I'm fine with games in a series, but when you start basing games off of movies and tv series, that's where I lose hope.
