Peter Molyneux wants to be blown away by Wii U at E3 2012
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 0 comments
After staying with Lionhead Studios for fifteen years, Peter Molyneux left the company just a couple of months ago. Now he’s able to completely speak his mind!
What does Molyneux hope to see at this year’s E3? Among other things, he says “Nintendo’s slightly lack lustre Wii U is going to have to blow us away with better specs and great 1st party line up.”
I’m sure Nintendo won’t talk about the Wii U’s specs next month, but they’ll certainly showcase a heavy amount of software. Maybe some of Molyneux’s initial disappointment will melt away after E3.

Kingdom Hearts 3D “Mark of Mastery Edition” not releasing in Europe

Sorry, European Kingdom Hearts fans. The just-announced Kingdom Hearts 3D “Mark of Mastery Edition” is for North America only. The official Twitter account for the franchise wrote earlier today, “this version is specifically for the NA release I’m afraid”.
Importing won’t do much good, unfortunately. Unlike the DS, the 3DS is region-locked, so you wouldn’t be able to play the North American version of the game on a European system.
