NES-style Wii U skin available for purchase, and it’s pretty neat looking
Posted on 12 years ago by Austin(@NE_Austin) in News, Wii U | 0 comments
I’ll admit, I’ve never thought about buying a skin for a console. Never even a handheld! This time, however, I’m giving it some serious consideration, because the $20 retro-feel Wii U skin from DecalGirl looks so awesome in this picture, AND it would prevent me from finger-printing the heck out of my Wii U…
You can buy the skin yourself here.

Petition for ‘Dark Souls II’ on Wii U started
Posted on 12 years ago by Austin(@NE_Austin) in General Gaming, News, Podcast Stories, Wii U | 0 comments
I actually saw this on reddit a couple of days ago, but didn’t think it was news-worthy for our great website. Apparently, IGN has not such high standards.
I kid, of course. This is serious business, because the ultra-hard sequel to the ultra-tough game Dark Souls was announced just a few days ago for PS3, PC, and 360– but not for Wii U. Apparently a group of gamers is pretty frustrated by this, so they’ve started an online petition to try and get Namco Bandai to reconsider. Currently there are about 6,000 people who have pledged support, and while I’m not sure that’s quite enough to get the game released (try 100,000… or more!), it’s a start. If you would buy Dark Souls II on Wii U, add your name to the petition:
Goodbye Galaxy Games’ next DSiWare title: Color Commando
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in DSiWare, News | 0 comments
Goodbye Galaxy Games, the maker of the Flipper titles, is still churning out DSiWare titles. The next game from the studio is titled “Color Commando”.
Color Commando features paint monsters of a particular. Players will need to shoot them with the same color. Information is limited, but it’s looking like Color Commando is made up of puzzler/shooter elements.
More details will be revealed on the official website, which is launching tomorrow.
Discussing the origin of Color Commando, Hugo Smits of Goodbye Galaxy Games explained:
“I also did not plan to make another DSiWare game, but my girlfriend was visiting family for a week (her family lives in Hungary – the piano stage of Flipper 2 is a homage to that). So I was all alone that week with some bags of M&Ms…what can you do?”
Circle Entertainment will be publishing Color Commando for a probable price point of 200 points. The game’s development is done and is currently in the approval stage. Once that’s done, Color Commando should be out very soon.

Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 0 comments
Toki Tori 2 won’t be making its intended December 20 release date. Developer Two Tribes wrote on its website that it believes it “would do you a disservice to you if we release it in its current form.”
The developer is currently working on Toki Tori 2’s “weak spots, in all categories ranging from gameplay to graphics to technology.”
A final release date hasn’t been set, but Two Tribes hopes to have its first Wii U eShop game ready for early 2013.
Club Nintendo not giving coins for more than 8 systems?
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, Podcast Stories, Rumors | 0 comments
After attempting to register his 3DS XL, NeoGAF member “thewesker” was told by Club Nintendo that he would not be provided with a survey or coins. Apparently the first eight systems you register are eligible… and then you’re out of luck.
The strange thing is, other members have indeed been able to successfully register and earn coins for more than eight products. Could this be a new regulation? Maybe the situation is related to the recent Club Nintendo issues?
Unepic heading to Wii U
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 0 comments
EnjoyUp Games and Francisco Téllez de Meneses are teaming up for a new platformer/RPG title “Unepic” for Wii U (presumably the eShop) and PC.
The entire adventure takes place in a huge medieval castle. Unepic makes use of an “eighty’s style” but is “completed with the most actual features.”
EnjoyUp sent over the following story description:
The hero is called Daniel, a normal guy from today: great videogame player, big lover of sci-fi movies, novice player of role games, pot-head and overall, a bit horny due to a misterious lack of success with girls. In the middle of a role game he is teleported to a castle and he thinks that he is having a massive hallucination due to any drug that their friends may poor in his beer while playing. So he decides to run his own adventure until the effect of the drug lasts.
In the castle, he will be possessed by a shadow, however this shadow cannot control him (being able only talk). The only way of the shadow to escape from the Hero’s body is by the death of the Hero, so the shadow will lie all the time giving false clues always looking for the Daniel’s death.
In the castle he will visit an oracle and find out what’s the goal of the story: to kill Harnakon, the master of the castle, and free Pure-Spirits. This story sounds typical for a role game, but during the adventure Daniel will discover that everything is not what it seems.
Unepic contains the following features, according to EnjoyUp:
Level-5 trademarks “Spaceship Damrey”
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 0 comments
In Japan, Level-5 registered a trademark for something called “Spaceship Damrey”.
This is just speculation at this point, but could it be another mini-game inclusion in Guild02? Three titles have been confirmed for the collection thus far: Insect Tank, Alone, and Monsters Appear on Friday.
Spaceship Damrey could very well be the final one…
