Another couple of Wii games are due out on the North American Wii U eShop this week. Nintendo’s website is listing Rhythm Heaven Fever as well as Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles for release tomorrow.
Below is an overview of Rhythm Heaven Fever:
“Perfect your rhythm with over 50 minigames and remixes in this quirky, charming rhythm game. Catchy music and crazy scenarios will teach players to feel the beat. It’s easy to learn, tough to master…but aim for accurate performances, as players will be rewarded with medals and bonus content!”
And a brief description of Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles:
“Swarms of undead creatures and mutated terrors rule the streets, pestilent hordes born of Umbrella’s botched biowarfare research. Gather your firepower, choose various routes and pathways, and prepare to face the horror as you uncover the dark truth that could take Umbrella down forever.”
Both of these games will cost $19.99 each.

Famitsu published a special issue today in celebration of the Nintendo Classic Mini: Famicom. On the back, an ad for Zelda: Breath of the Wild can be found. We don’t usually make mention of print ads, but we’re making one exception here.
The ad continues to show how Nintendo is promoting Breath of the Wild’s ties to the original Zelda. The text states, “Once more to Hyrule”. This also appears to be the first time that the Switch logo is included in an ad.

Climax Studios pitched Diddy Kong Racing Adventure to Nintendo for the GameCube
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in GameCube, News | 1 Comment
YouTube user PtoPOnline has unearthed an interesting pitch from Silent Hill: Shattered Memories developer Climax Studios. During the GameCube era, the company was hoping Nintendo would give the green light on Diddy Kong Racing Adventure.
Big plans were in store for Diddy Kong Racing Adventure even though Nintendo decided not to go ahead with the pitch. Climax had a story in mind, with the intent of bringing back the Adventure Mode and multiple vehicles from the original Diddy Kong Racing. Also in place was a mount system so that players could move positions on their vehicle or move to a separate one entirely. Climax was looking to include fourteen different characters with unique attacks for each as well. 4-player multiplayer, along with a slew of other modes, were also in the pipeline.
Plenty of additional details about Diddy Kong Racing Adventure can be found in the video below.
