A3.7 - U Create - Competition One


With gaming growing in quality and technology opening the creative pathways for a large number of people, more and more independent producers and companies are creating really innovated games for the PC.

U Create will give those creative minds the chance to showcase their talents and have the chance to have their game(s) released onto the Nintendo Wii U - Nintendo's first HD console.

For example, independent gaming company Parsec Productions, the creator of the game Slender have recently been given a grant to create a second, higher quality version of the game. But, many people since have created their own versions of the game.
They could enter this competition with a version of the game for the Wii U - using the screen on the controller to collect the notes, see an actual map of the forest, and be one of the indicators that Slender Man is nearby.

There would be prizes for first, second and third place:

  1. Their game would be professionally produced and released as an official Wii U title, plus a tour around a Nintendo Studio.
  2. The tour around the studio, plus gift vouchers (likely points for the Nintendo E-Shop)
  3. Gift vouchers (Nintendo Points)
But, even if they don't win the contest, there will still be a lot of people who will see their talents which opens a whole world of opportunities to them which would have been difficult to obtain in regular circumstances.
