The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild marks the end for Wii U – at least from a games standpoint. Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime told Polygon last week what we all expected, which is that no other titles are in development.

However, Reggie did say that Wii U games will still be sold at retail as well as on the eShop. Additionally, online services will not be shutting down anytime soon.

According to Reggie:

Headup Games prepared a launch trailer for this week’s Wii U eShop release Toby: The Secret Mine. Have a look at it below.

Previews for Poochy & Yoshi’s Woolly World are beginning to appear, and some English footage has been brought along with them. Several videos from the game are attached below.

Playtonic issued a new Yooka-Laylee trailer showing off eight multiplayer games included in the game. We’ve posted the video below.

This week’s North American Nintendo Downloads are as follows:

Wii U Download

Koi DX – $9.99
Snowball – $3.00
Toby: The Secret Mine – $9.99

Wii U Virtual Console

Star Fox 64 – $9.99

Poochy & Yoshi’s Woolly World has now arrived in Japan, so we have a pretty good look at the game in action. A half hour of footage is posted below.

Resident Evil 7 director Koshi Nakanishi was asked for his thoughts about Switch in an interview with Gamereactor. He told the site:

“As an industry member, I had the opportunity to try Nintendo Switch before the presentation. I think it’s unique hardware and I’ll explore its possibilities. I’ve always been a fan of Nintendo.”

Nakanishi is leaving the door open to the possibility of working with Switch in the future. We’ll just have to wait and see if he ends up creating any projects for it.

Vice has a pretty big interview up with Zelda producer Eiji Aonuma about Breath of the Wild. Topics include fan feedback, voice acting, where it sits in the timeline, and more.

You can find notable excerpts from the interview below. The full discussion is located here.

Creeping Terror made it out on the Japanese 3DS eShop this week, and now we have footage from the game. Watch an hour of gameplay below.


After originally hitting Wii U, Yoshi’s Woolly World is on 3DS as Poochy & Yoshi’s Woolly World. A comparison has now come in of the two versions. Since Poochy & Yoshi’s Woolly World is only at 60 frames per second on New 3DS, that version was specifically used here. The full comparison is below.
