Before the system’s launch, Nintendo was unable to register WiiU.com as it was already picked up by somebody else back in 2004. The company is now looking to acquire the domain.

One report has surfaced indicating that Nintendo has filed a cybersquatting complaint with World Intellectual Property Forum. It sounds like it’ll be a somewhat arduous task to track down the current owner, but there will likely be a resolution in the near future.

Shin Megami Tensei IV has a release date. This week’s Famitsu confirms that Atlus will begin publishing the title on May 23. All first-print copies will come with a sound & art collection.

Also announced in Famitsu, a special 3DS XL system is in the works. It features an original design and comes with Shin Megami Tensei IV pre-installed.


One of the Wii U’s most-appealing features is its ability to play games off-screen. A majority of the titles allow system owners to experience titles directly on the GamePad.

Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate is not included as an off-TV play release. Why is this so?

Producer Ryozo Tsujimoto explained that the team wanted to keep Monster Hunter 3’s two-screen experience in tact:

“We don’t have that feature within Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate – really, the way that we approach making the title for the Wii U was that we wanted to make the Wii U GamePad subscreen a compliment to the main screen. So instead of making the screens replaceable or being able to switch them, we really wanted to make sure that players are utilizing both real estate of the screens, in conjunction with each other.”

In the end, if you wish to play Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate without a TV, you could always go with the 3DS version.

Siliconera writes today that Ubisoft will be shipping a new product known as Assassin’s Creed III: Washington Edition “very soon”. The publisher is likely packing in the full game as well as the full Tyranny of King Washington DLC. Although Washington Edition hasn’t been confirmed for Wii U, one would think it has a pretty good shot at hitting the platform given that Assassin’s Creed III is already out on the system.

Thanks to KIDNINTENDO for the tip.
