As was previously known, online multiplayer is one of the bigger elements that will be affected. This pertains to titles produced by Nintendo as well as games from third-parties. Also note that DLC can still be downloaded.

@GoldMetalSonic DLC isn't affected, so you can still download updates if they're available. But all matchmaking will no longer be available.

@GoldMetalSonic That DLC still wouldn't be affected. My Pokemon Ranch uses local connection with the Nintendo DS. So, no issue there.

@GoldMetalSonic ALL Wii and DS games that have matchmaking and online multiplayer will no longer be active.

Mad Men Football roster to include Julius Caesar

Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 2 Comments

AE Games has confirmed Julius Caesar as the next roster addition for Mad Men Football. He’ll be joining George Washington, who was announced as the first inclusion last month.

AE Games published the following overview of Julius Caesar last week:

If you’re sick of betrayal, tune in to this teaser.
He hopes not to fail, hail (Mary pass from) Julius Caesar!
We hope the Ides of March, found you well!
Julius Caesar will now be leading his legions to “battle” not on typical battlefields, but instead on football fields! Julius Caesar will be throwing a football down the field to break his “enemies'” defenses, instead of throwing a javelin (or, pilum as some history fans may refer to it)! What historical figure will join the Mad Men Football roster next? Only time will tell…

There’s no audience for a potential Toki Tori 3, Two Tribes says

Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 5 Comments

Last week, Two Tribes made some comments stating that there would never be another Toki Tori game. The studio explained that Toki Tori 2 simply didn’t generate the kind of sales that they had hoped for.

Two Tribes explained things further on Twitter today, stating that “there is no audience” for Toki Tori 3 and “that won’t change.”

Tweets form the company read:

Interesting that it's news for people that we won't be making a new Toki Tori game. Did you guys expect us to do Toki Tori 3?
