Uncade LLC’s David Byers – the studio’s one and only employee – is currently working on Another Castle for Wii U. But Byers has created other games as well, including “Haunted Hallway”, “Blast Ball”, and “Love Me Not” for PC. Could we also see some of these on Wii U?

Byers admitted to Dromble that he’s “thought about it”, but has yet to make any decisions. If these older games were to see a Wii U release though, they’d probably “be more of a remake as opposed to a port.”

According to Bryers:

“I’ve thought about it, but to be honest I’m not sure yet. I feel like console games should be larger experiences than those games offer right now, so if I ever make them for the Wii U it would be more of a remake as opposed to a port. This would take a fair amount of work, and right now my top priority is working on Another Castle.”

Resident Evil 4 adopted a fairly different approach than its predecessors. For the game’s development, Capcom decided to make the game more action-oriented.

This was a conscious decision made by Shinji Mikami, who was director of the project. Because the 2002 remake of Resident Evil was a “commercial failure”, Mikami wanted to emphasize gameplay as opposed to scaring players.

Mikami told IGN in a new interview:

It’s no secret how big of a Zelda fan Robin Williams is. He and his daughter, Zelda, were featured in a number of commercials a couple of years ago to promote Ocarina of Time 3D, Four Swords Anniversary Edition, and Skyward Sword.

So what’s Williams’ favorite Zelda game of all time? That’d be Ocarina of Time, which also happens to be the last Zelda he fully completed.

Writing in a Reddit IAMA session, Williams said:

“I think the last game I played was Ocarina of Time, and that was the last one I’ve had the chance to play all the way through.”

Also in the IAMA, Williams cleared up a common misconception about the name of his daughter. While this had been confirmed previously, Williams said his son originally came up with the idea for Zelda.

“It wasn’t actually me, it was my son Zachary who came up with the idea. But once Marsha and I heard it, we said it was great.”

Nintendo has informed us that Mario & Sonic at the Sochi 2014 Olympic Winter Games does not have a confirmed release date even though a recent message said otherwise.

The upcoming title was thought to be released in North America on November 8th. A few days ago, the company sent Wii U owners a notification with the date, stating fans would “be able to purchase and download this game at midnight on November 8th”.

However, Nintendo has since said that the November 8th mention was “an error.”

In a statement provided to us, the company said:

“The Nov. 8 launch date for Mario & Sonic at the Sochi 2014 Olympic Winter Games that was recently listed in a Wii U notification was an error. A confirmed launch date will be announced in the future. We apologize for any confusion.”
