WayForward isn’t quite ready to provide a blowout of information for Mighty Switch Force 2, but director Austin Ivansmith did share a few nuggets on the latest “Sup, Holmes?” show.

Mighty Switch Force 2 will see the return of Patricia Wagon. But this time around, it seems as though she could be heading down a new career path. Jake “Virt” Kaufman will be in charge of the game’s soundtrack once again.

For now, Mighty Switch Force 2 has a tentative Q1/Q2 release date. Pricing will be “reasonable” and “in the ballpark of the original”.

The Wii Mini has been a Canadian-exclusive product up to this point. But might the hardware be released in Europe as well?

Websites under the NoE umbrella (like nintendo.co.uk) are listing “Wii mini” on the “Wii” menu bar. At present, the page only produces an error.

There are two possibilities here. Either Nintendo of Europe simply screwed up, or the Wii Mini was accidentally listed before an official announcement was made.
