Nyamyam is now an authorized Wii U developer. The studio’s first order of business? Bringing Tengami to the eShop.

After receiving an “overwhelmingly positive” response on Twitter when asked if fans would be interested in seeing Tengami on Wii U, the team started the process of making it happen. Development is expected to begin soon.

Last year we asked on Twitter whether you would like to see Tengami on the Wii U. The response was so overwhelmingly positive that we began the process of bringing Tengami on the Wii U to life. It is with great pleasure that I can finally announce Nyamyam is now an authorized Nintendo developer. On top of that Wii U dev kits arrived this morning and we are thrilled to be starting development soon.

Our sincerest gratitude goes out to everyone who encouraged us to pursue Tengami on the Wii U. It is because of your support that Tengami is coming to the Wii U. Thank you!

With the recent release of Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate, Capcom is shutting down the servers for the original game. Today, players will no longer be able to access Monster Hunter Tri’s online functionality.

Capcom announced back in January that it would be turning off the servers for the older Wii game. Although there still are some users who continue to revisit Tri, hopefully they’ll migrate on over to Ultimate in the future.

The Wonderful 101 director Hideki Kamiya recently published a tweet indicating that the game is intended to be more about fun than game length. Following his remark, the consensus seemed to be that the upcoming Wii U title would be a relatively short experience.

This isn’t necessarily so, according to producer Atsushi Inaba. Having worked with Kamiya on countless occasions, “game length is something I’ve never once worried about.” On the topic of fun, Inaba added that The Wonderful 101 “will be so much fun you are going to wear out your Wii U GamePad.”

Inaba also promises “plenty of news about the game in the days and weeks to come.”

You can find all of Inaba’s comments below.

EarthBound is kind of seeing a renaissance. Earlier this month, Nintendo announced that it would finally be re-releasing the game overseas through the Wii U Virtual Console after it originally launched close to two decades ago.

Let’s say EarthBound was a huge success on the eShop. Perhaps then a new entry would be possible, knowing that the series still has a big following worldwide.

Not so fast. EarthBound/Mother creator Shigesato Itoi, when asked about the possibility of a new installment, responded with just one word: “Impossible.”

Surely Nintendo can’t keep EarthBound/Mother dormant forever, right? Maybe one day we’ll see a complete revival, much in the same way that Kid Icarus came back after a 20-year hiatus.
