Don’t count on a Wii U version of Skullgirls happening anytime soon.

According to the game’s official Twitter account, a release on the console “isn’t looking likely”. Skullgirls could, however, be considered for Wii U assuming “sales pick up” and Nintendo is able to “establish a digital presence”.

EA came out with a fighter for the likes of the SNES and SEGA Genesis based on the NBA legend Shaquille O’Neal way back in 1994. Nearly two decades later, could a follow-up of sorts be in the works?

Siliconera has come across a series of new trademarks known as “Shaqfighter” filed by the same company that runs “Shaq.com”. The items are related to video games, online games, computer game software, and action skill games.

It isn’t immediately clear what these trademarks could/will be used for, but it would be pretty amazing to see another Shaq fighter after all this time.

A good amount of Wii U games tend to hit the eShop the same day as retail. Sniper Elite V2, however, will not be following this approach.

The official Sniper Elite Twitter account confirms that V2 will only be available as a disc release at launch:

It’s unclear if Sniper Elite V2 will arrive on the Wii U eShop at some point in the future.

Thanks to Tim for the tip.

The announcement of “A Link to the Past 2” brings with it many questions, but through the cloud of speculation we can see that some details about the game are more important than others.


Author: Jack

The grand finale in this past, highly acclaimed Nintendo Direct was quite the doozy– not only will there be a brand-spankin’-new Zelda game for 3DS out in only six to eight months, it will also be a successor to the beloved A Link to the Past. But what exactly do we know about it? Is it a direct sequel? Is it the same game remade? Is it brand new? We’ve got 5 of the biggest things you can expect out of this title, right here on NintendoEverything!

Hit the break for the full list!


Shadow of the Eternals, the spiritual sequel to Eternal Darkness, is coming to the Wii U through the eShop. But wouldn’t it be nice to play the GameCube game on the console as well? Like through a VC release, maybe?

That’s the question one fan asked Precursor Games on Facebook recently. In response, the studio said it “will definitely discuss” the possibility.

Check out the full Q&A below:

Q: Is there any chance that while in talks with Nintendo you can bring up a possible re-release of the GameCube’s Eternal Darkness as a Virtual Console release? It would allow hype to build on the game and allow people who had not played before to get into the series!

A: We will definitely discuss that. Thanks for the suggestion!

Of course, there is a significant roadblock: no GameCube titles have ever been made available through the Virtual Console, and Nintendo hasn’t announced any plans to do so in the future. I’m sure there are quite a few fans who would snatch up a digital re-release, though!

Tomodachi Collection: New Life shipped with a glitch that allows players to take on the role of a male Mii and fall in love, marry, and produce offspring with another male character. We say “glitch” because this isn’t how Nintendo intended to make the game. Players only encounter the situation when Miis are moved to the 3DS with the Mii transfer software.

Nintendo now intends to address the bug with an upcoming patch. The update, which should be going live soon for users, also fixes boot issues, general errors, a problem relating to saving, and an odd bug with a specific type of SpotPass notification.
