Nintendo Power teases Indianapolis satellite image in latest issue

Tuesday, January 13th, 2009 at 10:37am by Jack

I haven’t finished my current issue of Nintendo Power yet and already someone is snapping strange pictures of the next issue’s big tease.

Apparently, it’s a satellite map of Indianapolis. Speculation ranges from a Google Maps partnership with Nintendo (or Wii Channel), to an Indianapolis racing game, to–hold onto your hats–something to do with Earthbound.

Who’s heard something we should know about? Any guesses?

    According to Wikipedia, Indianapolis is the county seat for Marion County. Drop the ‘n’ on Marion, and you get Mario. Shazam! New Mario game.

    You heard it here first, folks.

    You’re looking through the eyes of a skydiver…from Pilotwings!

  3. Kale says...

    Second the Pilotwings motion.

    @Fuzz
    You are so dirty sexy money.
    Although I heard it’s going to be another Kirby game from certain source of an unknown realm…if Nintendo is not promoting the next Mario game.

    Google Earth The Game.

  7. David says...

    Maybe something with that Google guy’s video from the other day, using the Balanace Board with Google Earth?

    Nah .. not cover-worthy.

    It’s Disaster: Day of Crysis! Nah, that would be asking too much from NoA.

    This is so obvious its not even funny. The game will be a FPS with Peyton Manning and the rest of the Colts going back in time to take on the Third Reich in World War 2.

    Once you beat the game there will be a special mode where the Nazi’s are replaced by the San Diego Chargers. I will buy this game day one.

    Well Indianapolis is in Indiana. So, Indiana Jones! right?

    Oddsmakers:

    10:1 New Pilotwings game…
    5:1 Pilotwings 64/Pilotwings on VC
    2:1 Indiana Jones & The Sceptre of Kings rumored by GoNintendo.com
    15:1 Google Earth Balance Board
    30:1 Diaster: Day of Crisis
    50:1 New Super Mario Brothers WiiWare
    1000:1 DaveRage’s Wet Dream Game

    I’m gonna say new pokemon game because it sort of reminds me of the world map.

    I can’t remember the name of the project, but wasn’t there a Greek- flying-angel-fighting monsters-in the desert-god game that is exclusive for Wii? I only saw the screen shots, it was late night before Xmas and I don’t remember the name, but I know what I saw, and it was not Kid Icarus because the Greek angel was female.

    I am not messing around: do anyone of you knows what I am talking about? It’s annoying that I can’t remember the name of the game.

  14. RoyalRook says...

    Never mind, I got this:

    Icarian: Kindred Stories
    - story does have a Greek influence, but is not based on Kid Icarus
    - Use Wiimote/Nunchk to fly Nyx
    - IR use to control the ‘gifts from the gods’ power-ups
    - Gifts from the Gods – move big objects, different types of shots, control wind
    - 2-player ‘co-op’: P1 controls Nyx and P2 controls IR
    - Over the Top studios consists of 4 people
    - expect the first trailer in January

    Here is a link for some cool screen shots:

    Indianapolis 500 =nintendofy>>>> F-Zero Wii
    Umm? Not bad right? The Blue Falcon is coming back for more.

  15. cmos says...

    it’s bob’s game

  16. Mark says...

    My guess is probably Earth Bound, nah.. nevermind.

  17. Amon says...

    Hopefully it’s Earthbound. I am so eager to find out why it receives so much praise from so many. I bought the japanese Mother 1&2 compilation, because I love me some RPGs. Didn’t comprehend much. :(
