Saturday Morning RPG coming to the Wii U eShop
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 0 comments
Mighty Rabbit Studios has confirmed plans to bring Saturday Morning RPG to the Wii U. The episodic role-playing game is already available on several platforms like iOS devices, though the eShop version should offer a few unique elements.
Mighty Rabbit Studios told Nintendo Force this month that the title will include a number of Wii U-exclusive battle objects that “play entirely to the GamePad’s strengths.” The developer is tinkering around with one idea – an homage to Presto Magix – in which players “have to use the GamePad screen to rub an attack into existence.” Off-TV play is also supported.
Saturday Morning RPG should be hitting Wii U in Q4 2014. At launch, players can get their hands on the first five full episodes from the iPhone version. A sixth episode will be made available for free through a future update.

Here’s a little bit of depressing news for you. Mega Man Legends 3, cancelled by Capcom back in 2011, nearly had its voice work finished.
Cup of Tea Productions was working with Capcom on the game’s voice recording portions. Interestingly enough, owner Danni Hunt told Siliconera in a recent interview that they were “almost completed.”
He said:
That was us though. It was almost completed. It was voiced. I can confirm it was almost completed.

A quick heads up about the recently-released Wii U eShop title Gravity Badgers. The game takes up 344.8MB of space, which seems quite manageable. You shouldn’t need to reserve much space fortunately!

Unity tech issues causing Nihilumbra delay on Wii U
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 0 comments
Unity has been running on Wii U for some time now, but the tech behind it doesn’t sound entirely up to snuff. The developer behind Nihilumbra, for example, has been encountering “some technical issues” in bringing the game over to Nintendo’s console. This has resulted in a longer-than-expected wait for the eShop release.
BeautiFun Games told DQTechNews:
“The game should be available on the market already, but we are having some technical issues with Unity port for Wii U that are delaying the release.”

Sonic & All-Stars Racing producer on wanting to represent Space Harrier, OutRun, and After Burner
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News, Wii U | 7 Comments
4Gamer recently caught up with Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed producer Steve Lycett with the game having been released in Japan last month. We already heard that Lycett had hoped to include Ristar as a playable character, but as it turns out, this wasn’t the only franchise he hoped the game would represent.
Lycett stated:
From three big SEGA classics, I think, “Space Harrier”, “OutRun”, and “After Burner”. Because these three are so popular around the world, I was thinking I wanted to find a way for them to work somehow. For “After Burner”, since there is no emerging main character, both it an “OutRun” both got full courses. But unfortunately, “Space Harrier” only got a song in the soundtrack on one of the stages. Even though it wasn’t convenient to include the hero of “Space Harrier”, we just couldn’t abandon the recording.
Lycett continued by elaborating on his interest in featuring Space Harrier one day:
Well, the truth is, I wanted to include the running character riding the dragon. But I won’t give up! If I ever get the opportunity, I absolutely want to see this happen.
