Sterne Agee analyst Arvind Bhatia has offered some insight into sales of the Wii U. Agee noted that GameStop sales this holiday fell below expectations in terms of both hardware and software. Available stock at the retailer is apparently “abundant.”

It should come as no surprise that the Wii U Deluxe Set is outperforming the Basic model. Thanks to the “better value” provided by the Deluxe Set, consumers have been more than willing to shell out the extra $50.

Discussing Wii U software specifically, Bhatia said the attach rate at GameStop is “low”.

Bhatia wrapped up with the following comment:

“Our conclusion is the Nintendo Wii U launch has been slightly disappointing.”

Mega Man Legends 3 is dead. Capcom cancelled the project and has no intentions to revive the title.

What’s a fan to do in this case? Well, while it’s far from what the final game would have been like, series followers can try a small fan-made browser offering. You’ll drive around as main character Barrett and pick up some Servbots along the way.

Paper Mario: Sticker Star could have offered a series of mini-games in Bowser’s Castle. However, the team didn’t have enough time to implement the content.

Producer Kensuke Tanabe told ONM:

“In Bowser’s Castle, we were planning on having the player complete a number of different mini-games as they went along, but unfortunately we had to cut this because we didn’t have time. I’m sure these mini-games would have been very silly and fun, so that was a bit of a shame.”

Co-director Naohiko Aoyama added that the mini-games would have required “a lot of effort into making events to really show off their uniqueness.”

“If we had, then we would certainly have had to put a lot of effort into making events to really show off their uniqueness.”
