As many of you know, Take-Two Interactive secured the WWE licence from THQ a couple of months back. The company has been far from a big Wii U supporter having put out just one title for the console – NBA 2K13 – through its 2K Sports subsidiary. Although we’ve seen WWE titles on Nintendo platforms since the launch of SmackDown vs. Raw 2008, it would appear that there are no plans to bring the latest entry, WWE 2K14, to the Wii U and Wii. If anything, a release on Nintendo platforms is certainly looking unlikely at the moment.

Take-Two’s latest financial results make no mention of WWE 2K14 for any Nintendo system – only the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 are listed. Retailers such as Amazon also make no mention of a Wii U/Wii version.

Take-Two/2K Sports haven’t made any announcements, so we won’t know for sure until something official is shared. Still, this is worrisome at the moment.


Puzzles & Dragons is a big thing in Japan. As such, it should come as no surprise that GungHo is anticipating to sell at least one million copies of Puzzles & Dragons Z. The publisher is targeting upper grade elementary students with its 3DS title.

Update: Amazon’s product page has now been updated with screenshots from the New Super Luigi U, hinting that this could indeed be an error. Has Amazon completely forgotten that New Super Luigi U is for Wii U, and is DLC? The retailer doesn’t appear to sell any kind of Wii U/3DS DLC on its website (unless I’m missing something), so you have to wonder what’s behind the New Super Luigi listing.


We’ve come across a rather peculiar retailer listing. Something called “New Super Luigi” has popped up on Amazon’s US website. No information is offered on the product page other than a mention that the “game” is for the 3DS.

Amazon’s US division tends not to make things up, so this is a pretty interesting discovery. Could this be nothing more than a simple error? Perhaps Amazon is simply be mixing things up with the New Super Luigi U DLC for New Super Mario Bros. U. Or is there something more to the listing?


Fans interested in Shadows of the Eternals can now make pledges through Kickstarter. Developer Precursor Games opened up the new crowdfunding option today, giving a second donation option.

You can find the new Kickstarter page here.

Precursor will still be keeping its own crowdfunding site open. Over $150,000 has been raised for Shadows of the Eternals thus far.


Ace Attorney 5 will be launching in Japan as a retail product. In the west, where the game is known as “Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Dual Destinies”, Capcom has opted to make the game available only through the 3DS eShop.

Following today’s announcement, we asked Capcom about the decision to bring Dual Destinies to North America and Europe as a digital title. The company explained that it “wanted as many people as possible to be able to enjoy the game for as long as possible.” While Capcom does “understand that this decision may upset fans who wanted to have a physical version of the title to add to their collection”, it feels that “this direction is the best to take to ensure that fans are able to enjoy the game at their own leisure.”

Capcom provided Nintendo Everything with the following comment:


The Game Bakers is bringing its mobile title Squids to the Wii U and 3DS eShops. A release is tentative scheduled for the summer.

Squids is an action/RPG title that sees a team of squid fighters taking on the powers of evil. Some of the action gameplay is reminiscent of Angry Birds, though the RPG elements have players developing their characters and equipping them with more powerful items.

The Wii U and 3DS version will incorporate levels from the original game and Squids Wild West while also incorporating content such as new characters. More details will be shared in the future.
