Disaster: Day of Screenshots [Update 1]

Okay, so Disaster: Day of Crisis is definitely coming. Nintendo just dumped an almighty batch of almost 70 (mainly new) screens on our local press site, all of which you can find here. They predominantly feature Wolverine look-a-like Ray as he takes on such well-known natural disasters as infernos, flooding, uhm, terrorists and ... bears.

There's still no word on a release date, though this sudden burst of media fills us with bright-eyed hope, being the naïve, optimistic fools that we are.

Update: NeoGAFfers spotted an update at Nintendo's German site that let slip a few precious details on Disaster (and, yet again, mentions a Q4 2008 release date). Apparently, we'll be playing as former US marine Raymond Bryce as he drives, swims, runs, and shoots his way through 23 "different parts" (a machine translation, which we assume means "23 stages"), faces volcanoes, earthquakes, flooding, tornados, and tsunamis, and fights it out against a terrorist organization known as "SURGE." Ray's health bar needs to be constantly watched, as he will require both food and fresh air if he's to rescue citizens. And that's your lot for now!
