Stay Puft Marshmallow Man from Ghostbusters - Image 1It looks like there won't be any PKE loving in the Wii version of Red Fly Studios' Ghostbusters after all. An article posted on videogaming247 previously reported that the there would be cross platform compatibility between the two Nintendo platforms where players can use their DS as a substitute for the in-game PKE meter.

An email from Terminal Reality boss Mark Randel explained that this feature won't make it in the final version of the game despite previous reports to the contrary. As an almost apologetic postscript, he added: "It would have been really cool though".

Still, this shouldn't be any reason for fans of the series to be let down by this little disappointment. Whatever happens, Ghostbusters (Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Wii, DS, and PC) will still get its worldwide release this October, so make sure to tune in to us again for more updates regarding this ghost busting title.

Nintendo promised Wii-DS connectivity. They lied again. I know you don't care about their many lies and like to accuse me of lying instead, but that's just stupid to defend them all the time.

1. You DO lie all the time. I have many links proving as such. Do I really have to post them all again?



2. You are the biggest KNOW NOTHING moron to walk the face of the earth! The Wii CAN ALREADY CONNECT to the DS and in Japan they have ACTIVELY used that connection since NOVEMBER of 2007 via "The Nintendo Channel". Thank you for ONCE AGAIN proving to the entire world that you are IGNORANT and nothing but an IDIOT.



In addition to that Nintendo has announced that North America will get the same channel on May 12th. Then Europe will get it on May 30th.



So...what was it you where saying about Nintendo having lied? HAHAHAHA!!!!!!! !!! You are so damn pathetic!!!!

» No. Not Nintendo, Terminal Reality.

Um... technically Terminal Reality "lied", but that's not eve the case since game features often change drastically while in development.

As for Wii-DS connectivity, ever hear of a game called Pokemon? True, not everyone likes it, but it offers Wii-DS transfer. And, if you remember GameCube, it was a long time after release before GC-GBA games came out even though the feature was promised before GC launched. It will happen, in time. Programming is a lot of work, ya know, and companies have deadlines. Not every game will use every console to its full potential.

I never said it could not connect to the DS, but Nintendo didn't deliver what was promised.



What good comes out of this connectivity? Any? That's why!
