Some of you may recall that PEGI rated Slender: The Arrival for Wii U nearly a year ago. But sadly, nothing ever came from that listing. It’s curious then that Slender: The Arrival has once again received a rating, this time from German classification board USK.

If there weren’t any plans to bring Slender: The Arrival to Wii U, it wouldn’t make much sense to have the game rated – twice now. It is strange though that the first classification was found last year and yet a Wii U release still hasn’t happened. Perhaps the inclusion on USK’s website is a sign that we’ll finally be seeing the game on the eShop soon?

Rumor: Zelda: Twilight Princess icon found within the Wii U eShop

Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Rumors, Wii U | 31 Comments

NWPlayer123, a person known within the gaming scene for data mining various games such as Splatoon, posted a brief chat she had with another person who has been snooping around the Wii U eShop. Supposedly, Nintendo recently added in a new title ID for The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess. It’s not quite clear if this would be referring to a simple re-release of the Wii game or an HD version (though the latter is mentioned in the conversation).

It’s not possible to download anything from the eShop. Only the home icon was recovered – it’s actually the image above, but smaller.

It’s true that this could have been a test or an error on Nintendo’s part. I’d personally assume that if it was intentional, there are only plans to bring the original Wii game over much like Super Mario Galaxy 2 and other titles.

XSEED Games event taking place this week

Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 2 Comments

Later this week, XSEED Games will be hosting an event, and a number of announcements will be made. It will apparently be taking place on Wednesday. We’re not sure how much Nintendo news there will be, though hopefully we’ll hear about a Return to PopoloCrois: A Story of Seasons Fairytale release date at the very least.
