Poking around the Japanese message boards, I noticed something very peculiar. Project Sora’s website has been updated with a very odd notice.

It seems that the studio, formed by Smash Bros. creator Masahiro Sakurai, has been dissolved as of June 30. The site will no longer be accessible on July 31.

You can take a look at the Japanese notice for yourself right here.

Last month, Takashi Tezuka said that the White Tanooki Suit would be available in New Super Mario Bros. 2. Famitsu has a reconfirmation of this fact in its latest issue.

Dying in a level five times will bring about the Assist Block. Hit the block and you’ll be provided the Invincibility Leaf, granting you the White Tanooki Suit.

Other power-ups reconfirmed in Famitsu include the Mega Mushroom and Mini Mushroom. These items will have the same functions as in previous games.

GameStop Italy has offered up its own Wii U games lineup along with launch information. I’m sure that the pricing isn’t correct, nor are the release dates.

But without further ado…

Wii U console bianca : € 399 – 07/12/12
Ben10 Omniverse : € 54.98 – 29/11/12
F1 Race Stars : € 54.98 – 29/11/12
Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor’s Edge : € 59.98 – 29/11/12
PES 13 : € 59.98 – 15/02/13
Rise of the Guardians : € 54.98 – 21/11/12
Sonic & All-Star Racing Transformed: € 59.98 – 30/11/12
Sport Island 12 : € 59.98 – 30/12/12
Tekken Tag Tournament 2 : € 54.98 – 29/11/12
Warriors Orochi 3 : € 59.98 – 30/11/12

Some of these games we know about while others are possible or completely random. I don’t believe Codemasters has announced “F1 Race Stars”, and Warriors Orochi 3 hasn’t been confirmed for Wii U.

Like I always say, it’s best to carry a bit of skepticism with retailer listings. Even though some of these games could certainly come to the Wii U, we probably shouldn’t make any assumptions unless official announcements are made.
