Following up on his article published on CVG earlier today, Rob Crossley added on Twitter a short while ago that “there are some really special things lined up for Wii U.” Christmas will be an “interesting” time for the console, Crossley says.

What we’re referring to, of course, is CVG’s report that Mario’s new 3D adventure for Wii U will be available by October. The site also claims that Nintendo is getting ready to promote its console through a big and global marketing campaign.

Corrigan told Nintendo World Report:

“Absolutely! We have lot of ideas for other series, including Dinosaur Office.”

CVG has posted a smattering of Wii U rumors today, led by speculation that Mario’s debut 3D outing for the console will be available by October.

The site says that it has had talks “with retail chains at the executive level”. One of its sources claims that Nintendo has been intentionally holding back on some of its games such as Pikmin 3, The Wonderful 101, and Wii Fit U, so that it can come out strong in the second half of 2013. However, a separate source denies this to be the case.

EA recently said that there are no plans to bring Madden NFL 14 to Wii U. But what of FIFA 14, which also has yet to be confirmed for the system?

When asked by Eurogamer about the company’s plans, EA Sports said:

“We are only showcasing features for X360, PS3 and PC now. News about other platforms will be revealed in the months ahead.”

Well… FIFA 14 hasn’t been ruled out for Wii U, technically. That’s at least semi-positive…
