Moving forward Q Entertainment will work with Atari and their first joint project is Q3 (pronounced Qubed), a compilation disc of three Q Entertainment Xbox Live Arcade games. Q3 is basically a retail release of Lumines Live, Every Extend Extra Extreme, and Rez HD on a single disc. Metoes Wars which is scheduled to come out on Xbox Live Arcade this winter will not be included as part of Q3. Atari plans to shuttle Q3 into stores worldwide in spring 2009.

Atari will also take care of Q Entertainment’s first Wii game tentatively titled QJ. No other details about QJ have been revealed.

There better be a BIG discount on the remaining add-ons for Lumines Live! or the inclusion of only the Base game on the disc.

Well those games have been out there for a long time on Live. I doubt people will be angy by this.

Curious about his PSN game that he is working on.

Rez with pointer support? Crap, looks like I'll be buying a third copy eventually. When it's cheap.

Pointer? WTF are you blathering about?

Also, I caved in and bought Lumines Live when it was on sale (and Heavenly Star was free), own Rez on PS2, and think that E4 is horrible. So I think I'll pass.

It's kind of vague but it might be a Wii game.

And yeah, this release is not even a little interesting.

I like the "pronounced Qubed", as if that were a word or a phonetic.

The other Genki Rockets song was also up on Live for a while, right? I wish they'd repost it. :(

I read a similar article on 1UP talking about QJ, Mizuguchi's Wii project, and kind of jumbled that together with the compilation. A re-read now that I'm a bit more awake shows the two projects aren't necessarily on the same console.

I'd love Rez on Wii, honestly, if only because its gameplay is perfect for the Wii remote. It would have to be made much busier, though, to compensate for the player's faster reaction time and accuracy.
