Captain Rainbow: Nintendos’ New Superhero?
Recently the first trailer was released for Nintendo’s newest revealed Wii title and hero, Captain Rainbow. You can find this trailer at http://www.wipido.com/video/1722. In the video the titular character, Captain Rainbow, finds himself on an island populated entirely by obscure characters from past Nintendo games.
In the game, players control a geek named Nick who takes a trip to Mimin Island, a fabled land where it’s said your wishes can come true. Then through an unexpected turn of events Nick transforms into Captain Rainbow who has to help out the island’s inhabitants with their own wishes and fight off enemies with his yo-yo attacks. Throughout the game, the gameplay switches off between Captain Rainbow and his nerdy alter ego Nick. It is up to both of them to make the dreams of the islands inhabitants come true. How Captain Rainbow’s story proceeds has not been revealed yet, but i can tell you it looks like its’ gonna be a very trippy ride.
The gameplay looks to be a mix of action and exploration, along with comic book style graphics and storyline. No release date has been announced for this game yet but it shouldn’t be too much longer.
