Fans Can “Donate” to Crowdfarter.com to Support Wario’s Upcoming Wii U Masterpiece Game & Wario and Earn Amazing Rewards

DIAMOND CITY– We here at WarioWare, Inc., are working with our fearless leader, Wario, to create his new Wii U game, Game & Wario – a game that can only be described as incredible, amazing, stupendous… and a bunch of other adjectives! To help Wario achieve his dream of funding this awesome game by his target launch date of June 23, he has created his own special crowdsourcing site called Crowdfarter.com. Here, visitors “donate coins” to the game by “liking” the site and daily updates from Wario via Facebook or by tweeting them to the masses on Twitter. Wario is so excited about bringing his genius vision to reality that he can hardly contain himself.

“Game & Wario is an entertaining collection of uproarious games that uses the Wii U GamePad controller in unique and hilarious ways,” said Wario, CEO of WarioWare, Inc., and all-around amazing guy. “WAHAHAHAHA! THAT WAS MY IMPRESSION OF A SUPER-SERIOUS GUY IN A SUIT! GAME & WARIO IS THE BEST GAME IN THE HISTORY OF TIME! IT’S THE YEAR OF WARIO! WAHAHAHAHA!”

Capcom was nice enough to send this game over prior to launch, so I figured I’d capture a little footage for you. What was supposed to be an informative play session with lots of great footage turned into a steaming pile of steamed tamales when I decided to test out the game’s “Infernal” difficulty setting instead of the traditional “Normal” mode.

Shoulda done normal. 🙁

Lots of requests for this one, so I tackle two (somewhat) simpler glitches, and one you may have heard of! Gotta start someone in a game that has about a thousand of them to get through after all.

Coaster Creator 3D developer Big John Games is bringing Big Bass Arcade: No Limit to the 3DS eShop. Originally planned for a retail release on Wii, the game has now been converted into a digital product for Nintendo’s handheld.

Big John Games already completed the porting process. It’s now being tested by Nintendo.

Big Bass Arcade includes ten lakes, forty tournaments and challenges, seven fish species, ten lures, and a record tracking system. The 3DS’ touch screen or button inputs can be used to reel in a fish.

Warner Bros. hasn’t announced a release date for LEGO Legends of Chima: Laval’s Journey as of yet. But according to Amazon and GameFly, the game will launch for the 3DS and PlayStation Vita (the DS version is due out later in 2013) on June 25. GameStop lists a June 18 date, but the point here is that Laval’s Journey will be out in mid to late June, based on retailer information.

Only a tentative summer window has been confirmed thus far. If LEGO Legends of Chima really is due out in about a month, Warner Bros. may want to make the news official soon.

Last year, Kotaku published an article that was filled to the brim with allegations about Silicon Knights and Denis Dyack. Through information provided by anonymous sources, the piece discussed the supposedly troubled development of X-Men: Destiny and how Eternal Darkness 2 was secret being made alongside the project.

Dyack is now with Precursor Games, but these allegations aren’t behind him. While Precursor has been focusing on its crowdfunding efforts for Shadow of the Eternals, Kotaku’s piece continues to be brought up on a regular basis.

And so Dyack has responded to the situation with a 30-minute response video. You can find it below:

Man… how disappointing. No one ever expects licensed games to be impressive, but since this one comes from Firebrand Games, I was hoping that the final result wouldn’t be this much of a letdown.
