Despite being announced during a Nintendo Direct broadcast earlier this year, Yarn Yoshi was missing in action at E3 2013. According to longtime developer Takashi Tezuka, the Wii U title didn’t appear this week since it wasn’t ready to be shown yet.

Tezuka also commented on the decision to approach Good Feel for a new Yoshi project that is reminiscent of Kirby’s Epic Yarn:

“I looked at [Epic Yarn] and thought it was really beautiful. It seemed like it would be a good fit for Yoshi as well. We found that the Wii U would be able to make it a much more expressive game. It looked like it would be a lot of fun.”

Later in the interview, Tezuka hinted that we could see some increased difficulty in Yarn Yoshi. The team may look to include different modes, or some other ways to offer a challenge for core players.

Ubisoft not ruling out any platforms for The Division

Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, Videos | 0 comments

Ubisoft announced The Division for the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One earlier this week. Some fans have been wondering if the game could be heading to additional systems, however.

The game’s official Twitter account tweeted that Ubisoft is “not ruling out any platforms for the future.” While the comment was made in response to a request for a PC version, perhaps we could see The Division on Wii U as well.

@schanihbg We are optimizing the experience for next gen consoles. However, we are not ruling out any platforms for the future.
