Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 2 Comments
Indie title Nostalgia: Two Worlds | One Soul is in development for Wii U.
You’ll be taking on the role of Alice, a 22 year-old chemical engineering student. Alice spent twelve years at a facility after being kidnapped as a child, but following the failure of a mysterious project known as “Project Nostalgia”, she and fourteen other children were released. The game appears to take place ten years later with Alice experiencing a state of unconsciousness due to a side effect of the experiments that were performed on her. In her dreams, Alice sees herself locked in a room, and is told that she will die if she can’t escape within ten minutes.
Nostalgia: Two Worlds | One Soul features a mix of visual novel and RPG gameplay. Ace Attorney, Mother, and more are cited as references for inspiration. Here’s a rundown of the game’s features:
– Unique Characters from each worlds – Even though you may interact/play with your alter ego, every character is different. Everyone has different moods, ideas and even different weapon types.
– Beautiful Graphics – We are working extremely hard to bring beautiful, stylized and fully-animated graphics to your screen.
– Full Interaction – In Nostalgia, you will be able to interact with almost everything, and each object will have its own, unique description.
– Unexpected Outcomes – We want cliches out, simple as that. Solid true twists, no sugar coating.
– Decision Making – Each decision has it owns outcome. So re-playability is guarantee
A release date for Nostalgia: Two Worlds | One Soul has not yet been announced.

Shin’en wants to stick with Nintendo platforms, may talk about its next game in 2016
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News, Wii U eShop | 38 Comments
Shin’en is still working on FAST Racing Neo for the Wii U eShop. But in terms of what the future holds, we could hear about the studio’s next game in 2016. The company, unsurprisingly, will almost certainly be sticking with Nintendo platforms with future titles.
Shin’en’s Martin Sauter told Nintendo World Report in an interview at Gamescom:
“We’re already brainstorming but we can talk about it when we’re ready. Fact is, we don’t know what’s in the future, but we’d love to stick with Nintendo hardware, eShop games and if FAST is a success we’ll keep going. Maybe next year we’ll talk about the next game.”
