Suda 51 still without a Wii U dev kit
Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 0 comments
Goichi Suda probably isn’t making a Wii U game right now. That’s because he still doesn’t have a development kit.
As far as whether or not he’s looking to get ahold of one, Suda 51 said:
“It’s hard to say. Maybe, maybe not. It’s really depending on publishers. We are developers, so it’s up to a publisher.”
It feels like it was ages ago when Suda 51 first said he’d like to make No More Heroes for Nintendo’s next console. As we now know, that’s the Wii U. But without a dev kit, he won’t be able to make No More Heroes 3…

That’s probably even less than a glimpse. The camera is placed preeeeeetty far away. I’m sure Renegade Kid will give us a trailer soon enough though.
No Nintendo games at Captivate 2012
Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 0 comments
Unfortunately, there were no Nintendo games at this year’s Captivate. Nothing for 3DS, and nothing for Wii. Well, no one thought there would be a new Wii announcement, but I digress.
The only news from the press event? Resident Evil 6 isn’t coming to Wii U. At least for now.
I’m sure Capcom will have something to show for Wii U at E3, so there’s that. I have no idea what the status of Monster Hunter Tri G is overseas, though…
Resident Evil 6 “will not be available at this time on the Wii U”
Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 0 comments
Resident Evil 6 isn’t coming to Wii U. For now, at least.
Producer Hiroyuki Kobayashi told IGN that the game “will not be available at this time on the Wii U.”
He said:
“Unfortunately, RE6 will not be available at this time on the Wii U. Right now we’re concentrating on the PlayStation 3 version, 360 version and the PC version of the game.”
Kobayashi didn’t rule out a Wii U version completely. Technically we could still see the game on the platform at some point…
