Could Viva Piñata have inspired new Pixar project?

DS News from N4G | Viva Pinata: Pocket Paradise

DS - Viva Pinata: Pocket Paradise - Could Viva Piñata have inspired new Pixar project?

Back in April this year, Disney Pictures announced like a zillion movies coming from all their divisions during the next four years. [...] The last of them, currently scheduled for a 2012 release, was called Newt.

Some of you may have instantly thought of Viva Piñata's utterly beautiful newtgats after reading that. [...] However, the distance between Rare's and Pixar's newts narrows if we know that both are meant to perpetuate their breed.

THQ turns Pocket Paradise release into a chaos

DS - Viva Pinata: Pocket Paradise - THQ turns Pocket Paradise release into a chaos

Mundorare: VPPP was officially going to be first released in North America on September 2nd, along with its Xbox counterpart, Trouble in Paradise; but it didn't make into stores in time, and was delayed a week, to be finally available on September 9th. [...]

More problems, if not a total chaos, is what we can find in the more dispersed European market. While, according to THQ early plans, PP was also officially going to be released along with TiP on September 5th, the game has only seen the light of day in the UK and Germany. [...] For the rest of PAL territories we can only find a complete plethora of confusing release dates and problems for pre-ordering.

Judging by these new images, the DS's garden looks just as busy and lush as the Xbox 360's.
