Through its various videos earlier this week, Nintendo confirmed 12-player online multiplayer for Mario Kart 8. The racer will, however, allow gamers to play locally with others.

Nintendo did confirm to us that up to four users can play Mario Kart 8 locally, but wouldn’t comment beyond this. Austin had asked a Nintendo representative about having a fifth person playing with a GamePad at E3 2013, but wasn’t given a comment.

Also worth mentioning, the E3 demo did not contain any new items. The representative seemed to think that the full game will feature new inclusions, though.

On Kickstarter, the developer behind A Hat in Time provided an update on the status of a possible Wii U version.

Gears for Breakfast reconfirmed that it has been in contact with a number of companies that could bring A Hat in Time to the Wii U eShop. Nintendo of America has also shown interest in the project thanks to the “massive support” from fans.

A number of hurdles must be overcome in order to make a Wii U version happen. First, Gears for Breakfast needs an Unreal Engine licence, which apparently can go for $500,000 or more. Wii U dev kits will also be needed. By working with a publisher, the team may be able to receive access to their dev kits and licences for a share of the game’s revenue.

This year’s E3 was jam-packed with games. Games for next-gen consoles. Games for a variety of different genres. Indie games.

But for Shigeru Miyamoto, what he saw at the show didn’t seem to overly impress.

When asked about his E3 impressions and titles coming from Sony and Microsoft, Miyamoto said “there does not seem to be any games that I would like to have created myself.”

He stated:

“Of course, I would like to know what they do with their machines, but there is no game that I feel the need to go see. So far, from what I’ve seen on the show this year, there does not seem to be any games that I would like to have created myself.”

Nintendo has opened the North American website for New Super Luigi U. Well, perhaps “page” would be a more appropriate term. In any case, you can access it here.
