According to EA, the new official stance regarding the Frostbite 3 engine working on the Wii U is now "possible" but they don't have any desire to actually port the engine anytime soon.

Its been rumored the engine won't be ported over until the Star Wars games officially are shown off.

The supervisor for Bayonetta 2, Hideki Kamiya, once again states the only way the game will be available outside of the Wii U is if Nintendo allows it. The statement was done because people on Twitter still keep asking him when or if the game would be available for the Xbox 360 and/or PS3.

People need to holler at Sega for Bayo2 being exclusive, and be happy Nintendo stepped up to have the game published. I trust Nintendo won't allow a solid like that go multiplat, nor should they.

According to Sega, they are well aware of Sonic Lost World resembling the Super Mario Galaxy series since they started to notice it as well during early testing.

Quote:
"With Lost World we wanted to evolve how Sonic works in 3D. When you think about a 3D level, it's still limited - the sides are limited - so we talked about making levels as cubes or tubes. Expanding the sides around 360 degrees enables players to take many paths, not just two or three. We ended up with a tune stage and realised we were a bit close to Mario Galaxy!"
http://www.gonintendo.com/?mode=viewstory&id=206660


According to ThatGameCompany (developer of Journey), they are considering working on the Wii U for future projects. They also teased their next game will not be strictly exclusive to a single console (hinted at probably timed exclusivity).




According to Ubisoft, multiplatform games on the Wii U are unlikely to take advantage of the Wii U tablet screen at least in the near future. The reason is because the company is focusing their efforts on the Xbox One and PS4 as the priority for the next set of games.

Warner Bros confirms the Wii U will get the Deathstroke DLC pack for Batman Arkham Origins that the other versions of the game will have.

Some new details regarding Pikmin 3 from the game's back cover:
  • * Online stuff - Online Rankings, Miiverse functionality
  • * Outputs in 1080p, Renders in 720p
  • * Control options - GamePad, Wiimote+Nunchuck, Pro Controller
  • * White and Purple Pikmin exculsive to multiplayer modes
  • Supports 5.1 Surround Sound

According to Ubisoft, ZombiU is now officially considered as a "failure" and they've scrapped plans on a potential sequel. Sales of that game are now being blamed to why Rayman Legends for the Wii U was both delayed and lost exclusivity.
http://www.gonintendo.com/?mode=viewstory&id=207020


According to Miyamoto, Nintendo ended up completely misjudging the size needed for their development teams in regards to HD game development. He stated in order to just do normal development, Nintendo needs roughly double of what they current have for manpower and rework their entire development cycle which favors a significant amount of time polishing a game. He also hinted Nintendo is working on an engine for the Wii U whose goal is to help speed up development for everyone working on Wii U games.

This would explain why Nintendo's current restructuring plans require a little over a year to finish due to the massive expansion needed by the company.

What did they expect from a game being sold as a launch title on a console? From what I have heard, a lot of people bought the game.

According to the senior creator for Rayman Legends, the extra time due to the original delay of the game has ended up being really good for the game. They've been adding in a lot more content than originally planned with new game modes and around 40 levels from Rayman Origins being included in the game now.

According to Iwata, the reason for the lack of news on the Zelda Wii U project is because Aonuma's team hasn't bothered to inform Nintendo of what's going on with the project since they are still busy with Wind Waker HD.

Eternal Darkness rumored to be getting a digital re-release for the Wii U VC after Nintendo recently reapplied the trademarks for the game.
http://www.destructoid.com/is-eterna...--258954.phtml


According to Sega, Sonic Lost World was in development before the Wii U was even revealed and ended up becoming an exclusive after Sega felt the game fit better on that console than the other next gen consoles.
“The Wii U hadn’t been revealed when development began for Sonic Lost World, so we were working on a PC version in order to see what kind of platformer we could make. Then, when we tried to think about which platform would be best for this game, we chose Nintendo.”

According to the CEO is Just Add Water studio, there are no plans to make a Wii U version of Oddworld: Munch's Odyssey HD and its due mostly to coding issues from the original game.
Quote:
“I’m afraid not. Munch is built on extremely old tech, to bring it to PS3 and VITA was quite a struggle because of this, and it’s not one I’d want to repeat with WiiU, sorry.”
http://www.gonintendo.com/?mode=viewstory&id=208715


Based on a leak from Amazon, Leged of Zelda Wind Waker HD includes a new difficulty option as part of the enhancements/additions for he HD remake.

Wind Waker HD still looks brilliant. Holding out for a new Wii U announcement though. Holy hell, it needs it.

Nintendo of Europe and Australia revealed a small trailer of upcoming Indie games for the Wii U. Between all regions, around 20-30 Indie games are expected to be arriving later this year.


http://www.destructoid.com/catch-a-s...u-259698.phtml


Nintendo revealed the list of games they will be showing off at Gamescom with the main focus being towards the Wii U.
Quote:
On August 21st through the 25th, Gamescom will commence in Europe, and for the very first time, gamers will have a chance to play Pokemon X and Y in the EU. Nintendo also has revealed that there will be playable 3DS demos for Professor Layton and the Azran Legacy, as well as The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds.

But while the 3DS has no shortage of incredible games in general, it looks like Nintendo will be focusing on the Wii U, with tons of demos on hand. In fact, Pikmin 3, Wonderful 101, Wind Waker HD, Sonic Lost World, Wii Party U, Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze, Super Mario 3D World, Wii U Karoake U, and Mario Kart 8 will be readily available.
http://www.destructoid.com/nintendo-...p-259703.phtml


Nintendo stated the Wii U is still being sold at a loss although they did not reveal the current amount nor if it has declined since launch (around $60 per console). They do expect the Wii U itself to become profitable before the end of the current fiscal year (March 2014).
http://www.gamesindustry.biz/article...ii-u-at-a-loss


Believe the demo is already available for other regions but Nintendo of America announced about an hour or so ago that the demo for the Wonder4ful 101 is currently available on the Wii U eShop.

According to a tweet by Ono, Capcom currently has no plans to release any non-VC Street Fighter games for the Wii U.

According to a former employee at Human Head, the studio was working on a collaboration project with Nintendo around the same time they were having business problems with Bethesda.
Quote:
According to the animator's portfolio, Human Head sub-division Nine Realms, Inc. had begun developing a prototype for a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles mobile game for Nickelodeon alongside an unannounced Nintendo project. While no details exist about the Nintendo project, the company did begin hiring part-time Japanese translators to translate "project documentation, written correspondence and live [conversation]," last year; suggesting a relation to the alleged Nintendo project.

Late last year Human Head job postings hinted at the development of an unannounced, open-world console project set within the mystery genre. This was soon cancelled, according to the studio's former lead designer Christopher Stockman. It's unclear, however, whether this relates to the alleged Nintendo title.

For those interested in the digital eShop version of Wind Waker HD, Nintendo revealed its around 2.6 GB in size.

Quote:
The game, now over a decade old, will command 2.6GB of download space should you choose to nab it from the eShop, according to Nintendo Everything. And you'll give it its space, damn it. It deserves every byte.

It will also run at 1080p, support surround sound, and support Wii U Pro Controllers.
http://www.destructoid.com/wind-wake...s-260306.phtml

For comparison sakes, the original Gamecube game was around 1GB in size when it was released.

Crytek once again states their new CryEngine does support the Wii U and disproved previous claims by EA about the console being unable to handle their engines.

n-Space announces they have pulled all development support from Nintendo platforms at least for the time being with the official reason being low demand by other publishers for them to develop 3DS games.

n-Space's CEO Dan O'Leary:
Quote:
"It's kind of a sad thing to say, because for a long time n-Space has been known as a Nintendo-friendly developer. We certainly have loved all our time working with them. We think their hardware's great. We think more often than not they have the right mindset in the difficult game world we live in...There's just very low demand right now for their work through the publisher side. Which is ironic, I think that'll probably swing back. The news was just talking about how Nintendo was beating everybody with hardware sales. The DS and 3DS sales curves have been slower than publishers would have liked. That may change, but I can tell you right now we're not working on anything."
http://www.gonintendo.com/?mode=viewstory&id=210370


According to Hideki Kamiya, the original plan for The Wonderful 101 was for the game to include “an all-star cast of Nintendo characters” instead of generic superheros but was dropped because of problems creating a team that would please everybody. That idea later influenced the idea of having all 101 characters show up on the screen at the same time.

Sega revealed Sonic Lost World is getting a special edition called Sonic Lost World: Deadly Six which can be pre-ordered at any retailer.
Quote:
The Deadly Six Edition looks to be a Wii U exclusive, as obtaining the edition can be done through pre-ordering the game before its October 18 launch. As for what will be included, a blog post on SEGA’s website revealed the bundle will feature the NiGHTMARE DLC; adding extra boss fights, a new level, and enemies inspired by the 1996 SEGA Saturn game NiGHTS into dreams.

Nintendo rumored to be releasing at least 2 more major firmware updates this year with one for the Wii U and the other for the 3DS (rumored Miiverse integration).

According to Polygon, Wind Waker HD does contain a new difficulty mode called "Hero Mode." It was also revealed the changes to sailing are a new mode called "Swift Sail" which allows a player to directly steer the ship without having to rely on wind for movement or changing directions.
Quote:
According to Polygon, enemies deal twice as much damage in Hero Mode. The new difficulty setting also removes hearts from environments, forcing players to rely on potions and fairies to restore Link’s health. As a result, players will need to be more thoughtful whenever doing battle with baddies.
http://www.egmnow.com/articles/news/...-be-strategic/


According to Ubisoft, development on Zombi U ended up playing a big role towards the development of Watch Dogs.
Quote:
We have learned some interesting [things about] gameplay thanks to the Wii U. With ZombiU last year, it was one of the first times we could explore asynchronous gameplay thanks to the second screen. When we look at that today, it's also thanks to that we've been able to create gameplay for games like Watch Dogs. This kind of technology is thanks to the learning we've done on the Wii U tablet. So it helped us also to be quicker and to have today some of the best offerings in terms of second screen gaming.

According to a few testes done by Japanese magazine Game Watch, the new battery pack for the Wii U Game Pad is about 1.7 times stronger in charge and gives around an extra 2-3 hours of power compared to the launch battery.

The downsides being the new battery itself is a bit large to the point it barely fits in the current design of the Pad and is only available for Japan at least for the time being.

Hideki Kamiya hints he'd be willing to make a sequel for the Wonderful 101 in the future.




Nintendo confirms by accident rumors of a Wind Waker HD bundle are true and would be available by the time the game itself is released on October 4th. The bundle would cost $350 and include the game along with a Zelda-themed Gamepad.

Capcom states due to porting issues, the Wii U version of Dungeons & Dragons: Chronicles of Mystara release date has been pushed back to a TBA September date now.
http://www.egmnow.com/articles/news/...-to-september/


According to Sega, pre-ordering Sonic Lost World unlocks an exclusive bonus level with bosses inspired from the game Nights into Dreams.

The Wii U Deluxe pack is getting a $50 price-drop on September 20th. This also will be the price for the Wind Waker bundle.

No idea why they've decided to announce a price-drop in advance rather than just drop the price now, though.

For those interested in the digital eshop version of Rayman Legends, its around 7GB in size.

Nintendo states currently there are no plans for an Ambassador-like program to be done for the Wii U after the recent price cut was announced.

Hideki Kamiya states there is a possibility Bayonetta 1 could get a port made for the Wii U but are developing Bayonetta 2 in a way that doesn't require the first game to be played to understand the main storyline.
Quote:
"I would love to make that happen, so that gamers unfamiliar with the first game get to play it. This is just my personal opinion, however. I have not much say over the matter. However, I think designers should always keep in mind that not everyone has played the previous title, even if this was released on the same platform. You have to make sure that even players who are unfamiliar with the franchise are able to keep up."
Also hints Platinum Games is very interested in becoming an official Nintendo 2nd party studio if Nintendo were to ever give them the chance to join.

Wind Waker HD will be getting a special limited edition version that includes a Ganondorf statue. The edition will be available in both the US (Gamestop exclusive) and Europe.

According to several people at Nintendo, the company is considering revamping their current content policies both to update certain previous stances and to make it easier for developers to provide games for the Wii U (and 3DS).

According to Eiji Aonuma, besides being busy with Wind Waker HD, the big reason why there has been barely any details about the Zelda Wii U project is because they are currently unsure where the game will take place in the timeline.

Quote:
"Honestly it's not finalized yet, where in the Zelda universe this story will land. We're exploring different directions that we can take this story at this point, so there's unfortunately nothing I can share from that perspective."
http://www.gonintendo.com/?mode=viewstory&id=211848


He also stated both Wind Waker HD and A Link Between Worlds are influencing the development of the Zelda Wii U project with the tablet features of Wind Waker HD teases as being included for that game.
Quote:
"Of course, we’re looking at the new Zelda game for Wii U, and absolutely, working on these titles has influenced and impacted the development of the new Wii U title. For example, in Wind Waker, we’re using the GamePad to travel around in the boat, using it almost like a GPS controller. I really want to take that mechanic and implement it in the Wii U game. I’m not saying that we’re going to be in a boat, but we’re going to be traveling around in the adventure. I think the GamePad is something that can allow us to make that as smooth and enjoyable an experience for the end user as possible.

Also, with A Link Between Worlds, we have some brand new elements, some never before seen in Zelda play styles in that game. I don’t have any direct or concrete examples, but it’s definitely bleeding over into the development on Wii U.

So what we’re seeing is…I think it’s a Zelda that incorporates some of the elements that players have come to love in the series and want to see, and also marrying them with new technologies and some new play styles from A Link Between Worlds. It’s all coming around full circle. It all ties in together."

Also downplayed rumors of the next Zelda game being influenced by Skyrim and only played the game because he was interested in it.

WayForward studio states they originally didn't plan on making a Wii U version for Mighty Switch Force 2 and ended up deciding on doing one because of the huge fan support for it.
Quote:
Coming from WayForward's James Montagna

“On Miiverse, the Mighty Switch Force community has been very vocal about bringing Mighty Switch Force 2 to the Wii U. We had no intentions of bringing it to the Wii U, originally. [Mighty Switch Force: Hyperdrive Edition] was an experiment, something we just wanted to try out—but [because of feedback] we are bringing Mighty Switch Force 2 to the Wii U. We caved.
http://www.gonintendo.com/?mode=viewstory&id=211845


Early numbers at least from Canada reveal that North American sales for Rayman Legends might end up being similar to Europe's in regards to the Wii U version selling the most.
