IGN: Potter for Wii was supposed to come out year, but then it was delayed along with the movie. We assume the game was just about finished. Has it just been waiting to go, or have you been making additions / enhancements all the time?
Darren Potter: The game was finished, looking great, and ready to ship before the original release date of the movie. We have a very experienced Harry Potter team that has really mastered the intricacies of working on this property and we believe this is their finest work.

IGN: What are the biggest advancements to the title over previous Potter games?
Darren: We started from a very solid foundation in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix with a highly authentic Hogwarts and really focused on bringing more action and excitement to drive forward the narrative. This experience is enhanced with specific improvements such as full camera control, different times of day at Hogwarts, and improved navigational elements such as a player's ability to call up Nearly Headless Nick at any time to guide them through the various missions.
UPDATE: A new photo of Ginny in her Quidditch robes on a broom and holding the Quaffle has been released by
