The Pokemon Company trademarks “Pokken Fighters” and “Pokken Tournament” in the US

Remember that strange Pokemon screenshot that popped up a few days ago? You know, the one that looked kind of like a fighter?

Well, Nintendo and The Pokemon Company may indeed be planning a fighter of sorts for the franchise. Siliconera detected trademarks for “Pokken Fighters” and “Pokken Tournament” in the US. One of those two could be alluding to the name of a potential Pokemon fighter title.

Castlevania: Lords of Shadow – Mirror of Fate HD not planned for Wii U

Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 0 comments

Castlevania: Lords of Shadow – Mirror of Fate started out as a 3DS game. And while producer David Cox had essentially denied the existence of an updated version in the past, it was announced yesterday that an HD update is coming to the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.

Unfortunately, Wii U has been left out of the mix. Cox confirmed on Twitter that the game is not planned for the system.

@pazmon94 – Sorry no. No plans for Wii U
— Dave Cox (@CastlevaniaLOS) August 19, 2013

In a separate tweet about the PS Vita, Cox said the team doesn’t have “unlimited people or money, so we look at what systems might give us some kind of return”. So while Cox wasn’t referring to Wii U, the same logic likely applies.

Knytt Underground’s Infinity Hype update to be a console exclusive on Wii U

Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 0 comments

Knytt Underground isn’t new to consoles. Last year, Ripstone Games published the title on the PlayStation 3 and PS Vita.

So if you’ve already picked up Knytt Underground on a PlayStation platform, is there any reason to consider the newly announced Wii U version? Short answer: yes.

For one thing, off-TV place will be supported. And Knytt Underground’s Infinity Hype update, in development for the PC, is also coming to Wii U – and it will be a console exclusive.

In an interview soon to be published on Nintendo Everything, Ripstone creative director Phil Gaskell told us:

“Since launching Knytt Undergound Nifflas has been hard at work on an update called Infinity Hype which features even more quests, room, and secrets. It makes an already huge game even bigger! On consoles the Infinity Hype update will be exclusive to WiiU.”
