Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News, Wii U | 0 comments
When it comes to full retail game downloads on Wii U and 3DS, Nintendo won’t be leaving third-parties out in the cold. The company has a program in the works for other publishers to take advantage of their digital options on both platforms. Unsurprisingly though, they’re keeping quiet on the specifics.
Nintendo provided the following statement regarding third-party downloads for Wii U and 3DS:
“We are currently preparing a program for third parties but have nothing specific to announce at this time.”

Nicalis cancels La-Mulana WiiWare publishing plans in North America/Europe
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 0 comments
La-Mulana will not be released on the North American and European Wii Shop Channels. That’s according to Nicalis, who shared the news on its Twitter account.
The studio said:
“Regarding La-Mulana, we have chosen to cancel publishing in North America and Europe for WiiWare. …We’ve waited, too. We’re sorry to have to announce, but we’ve waited for them to finish the game for over two years.”
La-Mulana was originally created for the PC in 2005. The WiiWare version was announced nearly three years ago. The game did make it out on the Japanese Wii Shop Channel, but it’s truly a shame North America/European Wii owners won’t be able to experience the game.

Nicalis talks Wii U, Cave Story+
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, DS, News, Wii U | 0 comments
Remember when Nicalis was quoted as saying that Wii U would be Nintendo’s most powerful console and would last five to ten years? As it turns out, that information was taken out of context.
Nicalis CEO Tyrone Rodridugez clarified his comments in a discussion with Destructoid, revealing the true intentions behind his statements.
He told the site:
“Sadly, the original quote was taken a bit out of context. Here’s exactly what I meant: for what we need, and maybe for other developers, the Wii U’s [capabilities] are more than sufficient for five to ten years. We’re not making AAA games or using a crazy insane 3D engine, but the Wii U can definitely do both. With that said, for what we are doing, we could work on the Wii U easily for another five years without making it break a sweat. We don’t do massive productions.”
