Wii U eShop

Gamesbymo’s indie game A.N.N.E is a long ways off. No release date – or release window – has been set, but developer Mo Breton hopes to have the game out by the end of next year.

“It is hard to give a set date for this yet, but I would really love to get the game out on the eShop before the end of 2014.”

Wii U development of A.N.N.E is just underway. Breton said that he’s keeping the system in mind and the functionality provided by the GamePad as some final decisions are made.

“We are just getting started on the Wii U version. My focus is currently 100% on completing the game and as I move forward with some final decisions I keep the Wii U in mind in order to take advantage of specific Wii U hardware feature like the Wii U Gamepad.”

All eShop demos come with a limit. For instance, you can only boot up the Project X Demo five times.

Who puts these limits in place? Nintendo won’t say, but an unnamed third-party publisher told Game Informer that the Big N initiates the requirement.

When it comes to official demo information from Nintendo, the only statement shared is as follows: “We don’t discuss our internal business practices.”

It’s almost crazy to think that Mighty Switch Force! Hyper Drive Edition still hasn’t hit the Wii U eShop in Australia and New Zealand. That’s about a six month wait when you consider when it originally came out in North America and Europe.

Thankfully, the wait is almost over. WayForward confirmed on Twitter that Hyper Drive Edition is due on June 6 – this Thursday – in both Australia and New Zealand:

In a new message posted on the official Shadow of the Eternals website, Precursor Games CEO Paul Caporicci announced that the company will be ending its current crowdfunding efforts for the game. Caporicci teased “exciting opportunities” after receiving lots of support from the community.

Precursor is now planning a re-launch, which will go live in “a few short weeks”. All donations given to the studio through the current crowdfunding campaigns will be returned.

Caporicci’s message in full reads:

To our community,

Since we announced this Kickstarter campaign we have seen more support from our community than we had ever hoped for. Along with this support has come a host of a new exciting opportunities that will make the game better than we envisioned. As a result, we have chosen to temporarily take down the Shadow of the Eternals crowdfunding campaigns on both Kickstarter and our own website on Thursday, June 6.

This doesn’t mean we are going away — far from it. We’ll be re-launching the Kickstarter in just a few short weeks with a reveal of these exciting new developments.


The first Project X Zone demo is now available in North America. Hit up the 3DS eShop to begin the download.

A second Project X Zone demo should be on the way as well. No word yet on when it will be available in the states.
