Warner Bros. Interactive and developer NetherRealm Studios still have some characters to reveal for Injustice: Gods Among Us. A date for an announcement hasn’t been confirmed, but Ed Boon told one fan on Twitter: “We are working on it.”
Injustice: Gods Among Us won’t be out until April, so there’s likely more than one character to reveal before the game ships.

I get the feeling that most gamers would rather stick with their old NES controllers, but this is an incredible project!

Analyst: Wii U GameStop sales below expectations, Deluxe Set selling better
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Podcast Stories, Wii U | 0 comments
Sterne Agee analyst Arvind Bhatia has offered some insight into sales of the Wii U. Agee noted that GameStop sales this holiday fell below expectations in terms of both hardware and software. Available stock at the retailer is apparently “abundant.”
It should come as no surprise that the Wii U Deluxe Set is outperforming the Basic model. Thanks to the “better value” provided by the Deluxe Set, consumers have been more than willing to shell out the extra $50.
Discussing Wii U software specifically, Bhatia said the attach rate at GameStop is “low”.
Bhatia wrapped up with the following comment:
“Our conclusion is the Nintendo Wii U launch has been slightly disappointing.”
Two Tribes still considering RUSH for Wii U, EDGE as well
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 0 comments
Back in July, Two Tribes tweeted that it was thinking about bringing RUSH to Wii U. That’s still very much a possibility, and the studio could also look to release its other WiiWare puzzler, EDGE, on the console.
Two Tribes said today:
Now that Toki Tori 2 is in the final stages it’s time to look ahead. We’re thinking of bringing our cube games EDGE and RUSH to Wii U too.

Speaking about RUSH, Two Tribes commented that the TV could act as the optional display:
For RUSH we may end up making the TV the optional display, instead of the other way around which a lot of games are doing.

Fan-made browser game is the closest thing to Mega Man Legends 3
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, General Nintendo, News | 0 comments
Mega Man Legends 3 is dead. Capcom cancelled the project and has no intentions to revive the title.
What’s a fan to do in this case? Well, while it’s far from what the final game would have been like, series followers can try a small fan-made browser offering. You’ll drive around as main character Barrett and pick up some Servbots along the way.
