Rumor: Wii U to support two tablet controllers
Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 0 comments
In the past, Nintendo was non-committal about featuring more than one controller for Wii U. Rumors indicated that technical limitations may restrict the amount of tablets the console could support. But Develop now claims that Nintendo has modified the system so that two Wii U controllers can be used at once.
Develop’s source said:
“Nintendo now know they absolutely need to support two tablets. At E3 they didn’t commit to this, but they know how important it is to make it technically feasible to support two screens. Even if that affects framerate, as a developer and player, I don’t care. It needs to work. Developers will design appropriate games for this. If you’re building a quiz game you’re not going to give a shit about the framerate.”
Two Wii U controllers is likely all we’ll get. Although four tablets is basically out of the question, players will be able to add in Wii Remotes and accessories for multiplayer action.

In addition, we selected this platform with the goal of reaching a diverse spectrum of customer segments, including current users of the ‘Monster Hunter’ series as well as people who have portable game consoles.”

Capcom considering Monster Hunter Tri G localization
Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 0 comments
Although Monster Hunter Tri G hasn’t been announced for overseas territories, there’s still a pretty good chance that the game will be localized. Capcom shared a status update about their plans for North America/Europe with investors a couple of weeks ago, explaining that the company “will consider launching this title overseas”. A final decision has yet to be made.
Capcom said:
“Our stance for the overseas distribution of this title is the same as for the entire ‘Monster Hunter’ series. We are selling the preceding title ‘Monster Hunter Tri’ overseas so we will consider launching this title overseas, too. But no decision has been reached yet.”
