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…

An Okami-related announcement is coming soon. But whatever it may be, it’s probably not worth getting too excited over.

Following the ruckus surrounding the announcement teased on the Japanese Okami Twitter account, a message was posted confirming that the news wasn’t at all related to a sequel reveal.

Capcom’s Christian Svensson also confirmed on the Capcom-Unity boards that this has nothing to do with a new title. He also indicated that the announcement is probably something just for Japan.

My guess? Some kind of new Okami merchandise.

Christopher Orlando Torres, creator of the “Nyan Cat” Internet meme, issued a statement to Eurogamer in response to the lawsuit taking place against Warner Bros. and 5th Cell.

News circulated earlier today that Torres and Charles Schmidt – the man behind “Keyboard Cat” – filed for copyright and trademark infringement against both companies. The two say that their creations were included in the Scribblenauts games, claiming that Warner Bros. and 5th Cell “have knowingly and intentionally infringed plaintiffs’ copyrights and trademarks”.

Torres told Eurogamer that Nyan Cat was copyrighted in 2011 whereas Scribblenauts Unlimited hit store shelves in 2012. It wasn’t until he saw the game’s first trailer that he became aware of Nyan Cat’s inclusion in the series’ installments.

Torres said in his statement:

Let’s face it: Tank! Tank! Tank! isn’t a killer app. But the Wii U game, which went live on the eShop earlier today, does give out quite a few coins on Club Nintendo.

Those who pick up Tank! Tank! Tank! from the store will receive 60 coins on Nintendo’s membership site. Given that the title is free to download, you don’t have much to lose.

BearShark became available on the 3DS eShop today. It’s an endless runner based on the popular Nintendo Video animated series.

BearShark’s new 3DS eShop title appears to be just the start of CollegeHumor’s foray in the video game business.

CollegeHumor chief executive officer Paul Greenberg told GamesBeat:

“We will definitely be launching more games based on characters and content that we created. We want to create properties and then exploit it. Over time, we’ll continue to build those out as cross-over entities.”

Maybe we’ll be seeing a Dinosaur Office-based 3DS eShop game one day?
