Mercedes-Benz talks about its partnerships with Nintendo
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News, Wii U | 1 Comment
Last week, Nintendo and Mercedes-Benz teamed up for their latest partnership. The car company created and put out its own level in Super Mario Maker, which unlocks a special costume upon completion.
This was the second time Nintendo and Mercedes-Benz. In 2014, free DLC was added to Mario Kart 8 so that players could access the GLA, W 25 Silver Arrow, 300 SL Roadster, and GLA Tires.
Here’s what Caroline Pilz, head of product placement and fashion sponsoring for Mercedes-Benz Cars, said about its work with Nintendo:
“Many people grew up with Mario during the last 30 years, so there are quite a lot of 30- and 40-somethings around for which Super Mario Maker hails back to their childhood days and gives them a large dose of nostalgia. While we received a lot of positive feedback on the campaign and the integration of our cars into Mario Kart 8, we also learned that many gamers are skeptical about brands appearing in their games, so we made sure to put a lot of effort and passion into designing the actual level.”

YIIK coming between February and March
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 0 comments
AckkStudios provided another release window update for YIIK today. When we last heard about the game, it was planned for launch between December and late February. We can now count on seeing it sometime between February and March.
AckkStudios wrote in a Tumblr update:
“We estimate we’re about 96% complete with the game, and believe that we can bring it to you between February and March!
Our original plan was to release it this month, however in an effort to avoid having the console versions trailing a few months behind the Steam release, we’ve decided to take time and try and release them on the same day, or within weeks.”

Update 4: Bumped to the top. Added in trophies, possible Mii Fighter hat images, and music.
Update 3: Added in possible Mii Fighter hat/outfit.
Update 2: Added in a stage note. That might be it folks! And I personally see that as a good thing.
Update: Thus far, it’s looking like there are no new characters in the update. Cloud and the Midgar stage seem to be added with the patch. Possibly another stage as well.
Data miners are up to their usual tricks when it comes to Super Smash Bros. for Wii U/3DS. It appears that content from the latest patch has started to leak, which isn’t too surprising given that the new presentation is taking place tomorrow. We won’t be spoiling anything on the front page or our social media accounts, but you can keep track of updates as they happen after the break.
