The fan-made Zelda musical
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, Random, Videos | 0 comments
I have to admit: I’ve got a bit of a soft spot for musicals. I was brought up on Broadway shows and even local productions.
So I guess you could say I have an biased opinion when I say that the above video is incredible. A fan has taken the events of Zelda: Ocarina of Time and mushed them into a four-minute musical. There’s some nice 2D pixel animation, the voice performances aren’t too shabby, and it has some enjoyable humor (though some of it isn’t suited for small children…).
Have a look for yourself above!
Frozenbyte: Wii U would make a nice platform for Trine 2
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 0 comments
Frozenbyte’s Joel Kinnunen isn’t ruling out a Wii U version of Trine 2. In fact, Kinnunen said that “Wii U would make for a nice platform” for the game.
According to Kinnunen:
“Thanks for the suggestion. We are keeping a close eye on all current and upcoming platforms, and we will bring Trine 2 to more platforms in the future… Wii U would make for a nice platform, that’s for sure, the tablet would fit Amadeus perfectly indeed. We can’t really disclose any ‘real’ info because that’s all covered by legal confidentiality agreements and the like… But let’s see how it goes. : )”
If Trine 2 does come to Wii U, it’ll probably be brought to the system as a digital download. The game was released on the PlayStation Network and Xbox Live Marketplace late last year.
Nintendo confirms Wii U Super Mario Bros. game for E3, Miyamoto quote
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, General Nintendo, News, Wii U | 0 comments
Nintendo has confirmed a report that a new Mario title will be shown for Wii U at E3 2012. The company didn’t specify if the game will be New Super Mario Bros. Wii, a project from EAD Tokyo, or something else entirely.
Nintendo’s statement reads:
“In a recent interview, Mr. Miyamoto confirmed that a new Super Mario Bros. game for the Wii U system will be shown at this year’s E3 Expo. We’ll have more to announce about our plans for the E3 Expo at a later date.”
In other news, we have a direct-quote from Miyamoto in which he commented on the projects he’s been busy with:
“I’m working on several projects but I think that I cannot talk about them all [laughs]. Some are small but important projects for Wii U. Also on a new Pikmin, which will take advantage of the new HD screen resolution, and on Luigi’s Mansion for 3DS.”

Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 0 comments
Whereas VVVVVV has been available on the North American eShop for several months, the game still hasn’t come out in Europe.
Nicalis founder Tyrone Rodriguez has shared a more specific release date. The title should end up on the European eShop within the first two weeks of May.
Another downloadable game from Nicalis, NightSky, is slated for a June/July launch.
