Update: Indie-related – ONM’s Wii U game tease isn’t Sonic Boom
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 9 Comments
Update: Castle has confirmed that the tease is indie-related.
To clarify: next month Wii U remark relates to something indie and cool, though contents are subject to change based on developer wishes.
— Matthew Castle (@MatthewONM) February 9, 2014
Original: ONM is teasing a new Wii U title for its next issue. While the magazine itself didn’t offer much in the way of hints, editor Matthew Castle has ruled out one possibility.
Castle confirmed on Twitter that the mystery game isn’t related to Sonic Boom. He said:
@Joshawott It isn't Sonic, no, but what it is may no longer be relevant. Contents subject to change, as always.

The comment “what it is may no longer be relevant” is a bit interesting. Perhaps an attempt to lower expectations? Could it be some other Wii U title we recently heard about such as Art of Balance? Or maybe we’ll be hearing about the game before the next issue of ONM is out?

ONM teases new Wii U game for next issue
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 40 Comments
The Official Nintendo Magazine has teased a new game set to be revealed in its April issue.
A teaser discovered in the current edition reads:
“OOOOOH! New Wii U game! (And no, it isn’t F-Zero or Star Fox).”
An important word of caution: there’s a fairly high chance that the tease is for Sonic Boom. That’s not at all confirmed, but wouldn’t be at all surprising given how it was just announced a few days ago, and ONM likely couldn’t talk about the title before publishing its latest issue.
