Ubisoft has announced that it will be releasing The Smurfs 2 on the Wii U, Wii, and DS. It’s kind of strange seeing that there isn’t a 3DS SKU, but it is what it is! You can find the game’s first trailer below.


Capcom has confirmed that a new update will go live for Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate next week. Starting on April 16, players can apply a patch to enable off-TV play and cross-region play between North American and European users.

A tweet published on the official Monster Hunter Twitter account reads:

This week’s GameStop ad has gone live. Highlights include Naruto Powerful Shippuden for $29.99.

The full lineup of deals can be found in the circular below:



Bloom: Memories has a strong shot of landing on the Wii U eShop. Indie developer Studio Fawn certainly has interest, and a release would likely happen after the initial launch for PC and Mac.

According to Studio Fawn’s Dani Landers:

“We definitely plan on a Wii U version after the initial release (since we are such a tiny team, doing a simultaneous release across all of our planned platforms is difficult). This also gives us a little extra time to implement some Wii U specific controls and test to take full-advantage of what the system has to offer.”

If you’d like to see Bloom: Memories happen, perhaps you’ll consider a small donation on the official Kickstarter page. Studio Fawn would like to raise $50,000. At this time, only $20,000 has been collected with eight days remaining.

For the first time, Rocksteady won’t be making the next mainline entry in the Batman: Arkham universe. That task has now been delegated to Warner Bros. Montreal, the team that ported Arkham City to Wii U.

There is some worry among gamers that Arkham Origins, the next console release, won’t be up to the series’ usual standards. But with official backing from Rocksteady, perhaps there isn’t much to be concerned about after all.

Rocksteady’s Sefton Hill and director of Batman: Arkham’s first two games told Game Informer this month:

“Rocksteady is excited to see WB Games Montreal developing the prequel to the Batman Arkham franchise. We are confident this talented team will craft a fantastic experience, bringing the origins of the Arkhamverse to life.”

And Origins director Eric Holmes commented to the magazine about how the shift in developers “gives us the opportunity to refresh things a bit”:

“It gives us the opportunity to refresh things a bit. Refresh characters, refresh ideas, refresh the dynamic between Batman and other characters, and refresh the world, too. Batman hasn’t become the character that we know and are very familiar with.”
