When Wii U arrives, it could have another high-quality title launch. Tomorrow Corp’s Kyle Gray has said that the team hopes to have Little Inferno available as soon as Nintendo’s new console hits store shelves.

As far as Wii U exclusive features go, Gray said:

“We’re tinkering with some features, but one thing we know for certain is that it will be the only version to exclusively have a Wii U logo.”

Gray commented on the 3DS as well. When asked if the team has any interest in developing for the handheld, Gray noted:

“It seems like it could be a good fit, but we won’t know until we have some time to tinker with it.”

Is it just me, or is this port of Myst incredibly pointless? Most of the action takes place on the touch screen anyway…

Tekken series producer Katsuhiro Harada has fielded three important topics concerning Wii U.

He was recently asked about the Wii U version of Tekken Tag Tournament 2, his thoughts on the console being next-gen, and Namco Bandai’s involvement with the next Smash Bros. release.

On Tekken Tag Tournament 2, Harada discussed some of ideas he’s been thinking about for the GamePad. Also mentioned was console exclusives, such as the already-revealed “Mushroom Mode”.

As for the power of Wii U, Harada said “the graphics chips seems to be pretty decent”. But he feels that people are focusing too much on specs while not considering the system’s capabilities and features. Harada personally likes the idea of being able to take a full-fledged game, put it in the GamePad screen, and continue playing it elsewhere if someone needs access to the TV.

Lastly, Smash Bros. Harada doesn’t believe that fans should be concerned about its development since Masahiro Sakurai is handling game design. Harada won’t be too involved since he’ll be occupied with the Tekken series.

Harada also has no plans to push for certain characters from series such as Tekken and SoulCalibur. He stated, “The sole decision will probably be made in a way that if more people want Tekken characters in it then Sakurai might choose to do so, if not then so be it.”

Head on below for all of Harada’s comments about Wii U.

The biggest screen ever on a Nintendo handheld console enters Europe on July 28th alongside New Art Academy & Freakyforms Deluxe: Your Creations, Alive!

27th July 2012 – 3D handheld gaming will be taken to the next level when Nintendo 3DS XL launches across Europe tomorrow. The new Nintendo 3DS XL, available at launch in Silver + Black, Red + Black and Blue + Black, boasts the biggest screen ever on a Nintendo handheld console. With 90% bigger screens the Nintendo 3DS XL’s surface itself is only 46% bigger than the current Nintendo 3DS – meaning that 3D experiences still comfortably fit in the palm of your hands.

The glasses free 3D upper screen on the Nintendo 3DS XL will offer a larger area – measuring 4.88 inches – for viewing content and games and there will also be proportionally more 3D screen compared to the overall frame. Meanwhile the rim around the edge of the top screen has been streamlined, creating a slim look and the 90% increase in the upper screen size of the Nintendo 3DS XL compared to Nintendo 3DS is reflected for the bottom screen, which is now 4.18 inches.

Not all versions of Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed will feature the same characters.

New comments from Sumo Digital’s Steve Lycett indicate that there will be 29 characters in total across all of the games. But some versions will offer a roster in the “high 20s” while others will be in the “low 20s”.

Lycett said:

“The thing is, different people think of different things when you say ‘How many characters are in the game’.

“Are we talking about playable choices, drivers, vehicle forms, which platform are we talking about, what?

“Me, I go with actual playable choices on the character select. Over all the different platforms, this totals up to 29 actual playable choices. But that doesn’t mean that there are 29 playable choices in all platforms (in fact no single platform has all 29). Some drop down to the low 20?s, some instead have high 20?s.

“Why is this? Well some platforms have characters that are unique to that platform. I’m not going to say which, that’s part of the fun of the reveals! Some are SEGA characters, some are not. Don’t bother asking :p”

Thanks to the latest issue of Jump, we know who Square Enix will be including in Bravely Default’s as the title’s fourth main character. The mystery person is, according to the magazine, Ringabel.

Ringabel is described as a young man without his memory who is journeying in hopes of courting a girl. He’s obtained the “D Notebook” which is capable of giving him prophesies of things to come.

Other information included in Jump pertains to the summon system. Players can take advantage of Wi-Fi (unclear if it’s StreetPass or manual Wi-Fi) to exchange characters with each other. These characters can later be used in battle through summons.

Lastly, Jump has confirmed that a fourth demo is on the way. It will be available sometime soon.
