GameStop has started to display Wii U marketing in stores across the United States. The same can now be said of EB Games in Australia. Take a look at a few images from the retailer’s Wii U promo content above.

Gamescom 2012 was a decent-sized meal for Wii U fans. We received some new assets from games such as Rayman Legends, but, as expected, third-parties didn’t make any new title announcements.

However, Official Nintendo Magazine editor-in-chief Chandra Nair told Nintendo fans on Twitter a couple of days ago that there is “good stuff” on the way. Given the fact that Nair referenced Ubisoft, it seems that his tease applies to the Wii U rather than the 3DS.

He wrote:

“Keep the faith nintendo fans. You won’t see much at gamescom other than ubi updates but the good stuff IS just around the corner …frustrating for me too but there is stuff coming soon.”

More The Legend of Zelda: Hyrule Historia details have emerged following today’s localization announcement.

Nintendo and Dark Horse have been working together for a few years, mostly discussing projects that they could collaborate on. It was actually the Big N who suggested that Dark Horse localize Hyrule Historia.

The final English product will be larger than the Japanese release. The localized version will feature all bits and pieces in English, including small tidbits.

Finally, and best of all, Hyrule Historia has been confirmed for a few territories in Europe including the UK. There are plans to bring the art book to Australia as well.
