Zelda: Twilight Princess HD seems to have a new Poe’s Lantern item
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 8 Comments
Another interesting tidbit has been spotted in yesterday’s Zelda: Twilight Princess HD footage from Nintendo Minute. In the game, players will have access to a new type of lantern item (different from the standard lantern) – possibly one for Poes.
GameXplain speculates that the lantern could be used to spot Poes while in human form. In the original Twilight Princess, you needed to be Wolf Link while using his sense view. Being able to track down Poes with the lantern could make things much more convenient.

Gunscape now targeted for release in February
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 3 Comments
We first reported on Gunscape last September. Blowfish Studios’ first-person shooter lets players create their own levels and multiplayer maps. That’s in addition to cross-platform sharing, which allows for content to be exchanged with other platforms such as the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
Gunscape was originally planned for release in January. This month has almost finished, and now Blowfish says that they hope to have the title ready sometime in February.
The developer told one fan on Twitter earlier this month:
@c4white33 Hi Connor! We're happy to hear that you're excited about it! And about your question, we're aiming to release it in February 🙂
