Their games sounded pretty interesting, but I haven't heard anything since E3, and they still haven't appeared on any stores' release lists. Given that, according to the site (www.orbitalmedia.com), they're all scheduled for release in the next 2 months, this strikes me as rather odd. Crazymoogle?

Orbital already announced 4 DS games actually... I think their GBA stuff will see release (though maybe things are slipping past this fall)...

Crazymoogle works for them.. he can probably answer any questions if he sees this thread.

It's mostly just the compression, but that boxart shot looks a lot worse than the real deal.

Answers:

1. The GBA titles are still in the works for (you guessed it) the GBA. Jarrod's lineup list is correct.

2. I can't talk about release dates, but it would be wise to follow Fonebone's common sense; no game comes out before appearing on product preorder lists. Conversely, games that show up on lists tend to come out after appearing. Take that as you will.

So are the games just not going to be completed on time, or are some sort of distribution problems the issue? Or something else?

Nothing I can comment on, but at least one of those games finished up development a while back. Experience tells me it does take awhile for the ball to start rolling with a new publisher, though.

It'd be nice if Pirate Battle makes it out before the end of the year. It's one of the GBA games I plan on playing on my shiny new future NDS
