Gearbox Software, the team behind Aliens: Colonial Marines, once again has high praise for Wii U. It’s certainly encouraging to read about positive feedback when E3 2012 is less than two weeks away.

Speaking about making Aliens: Colonial Marines for Wii U, Gearbox senior producer Brian Burleson told Eurogamer that it’s “been pretty easy”. He feels that Nintendo’s console is “a powerful, powerful machine” capable of performing “a lot of cool new things”.

He said:

The Order Up!! 3DS demo wasn’t on the eShop today for a reason. SuperVillain Studios co-founder Chris Rausch confirmed that the download was delayed a week because “Nintendo is apparently going to get behind it for a bit of a push”.

This should mean that the game will receive its own section on the store next week. Maybe Nintendo will even send out a SpotPass notification about the demo.

According to Rausch:

“We have just received word that the demo is being pushed back a week on the eShop, as Nintendo is apparently going to get behind it for a bit of a push, which would be awesome! No specifics, but either way, expect the demo next week, and the game is now approved, so it should be hitting the eShop in early June.”

Sometimes fans make really awesome things. “Project M” is one such creation that is really worth checking out. It’s a fan-made Super Smash Bros. Brawl mod capable of adding new levels, changes in settings, and more.

The best part about it? You don’t have to modify your Wii at all. It doesn’t use the Homebrew Channel or anything else. As long as you have a copy of the game and an SD card, you should be good to go.

A Skyloft stage is included in the Project M 2.1 demo, which apparently just came out yesterday. You can see a video of the level above.

If you’re interested in Project M, you can download the latest demo version here.

It won’t be happening for a few months, but this year’s Tokyo Game Show is already set in stone with a date and main visual.

The expo is scheduled for September 20 through September 23. As was the case last year, it’ll be taking place at the Makuhari Messe. The first two days are reserved for business matters while the last two days provide the public with an opportunity to sample games.

2012’s Tokyo Game Show main visual is the same one from last year, but it features a new color scheme. The gist of the girl’s purpose is to show her flying to your town to deliver the “memories of smiles” from the digital world.
