Chris Stockman, the design director of Saints Row 1, is said to have been making an open-world game for Wii U. The project was being made in partnership with Nintendo.
Unfortunately, Stockman’s title was cancelled one day before production kicked off. It’s unknown why this occurred, though Nintendo’s management apparently pulled out at the last minute.
All of this information comes from Unseen64’s Liam Robertson. The site consistently digs up information on cancelled game-related projects.

Square Enix CEO aware of overseas Dragon Quest demand, has ideas about how to make it successful in the west
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, General Nintendo, News | 18 Comments
Square Enix CEO Yosuke Matsuda sat down with French website Gamekult for a lengthy chat. Among the various topics discussed was the company’s handling of Dragon Quest overseas.
Matsuda acknowledged that a number of Dragon Quest games were not released in France – and in turn, the west as a whole. However, he added that the Dragon Quest team has some ideas about how to make the series successful overseas. He asked fans to look forward to upcoming announcements and to a “bright future” for the series.
Square Enix actually ended up announcing Dragon Quest Heroes for North America and Europe earlier today. But you do have to wonder if we still have any sort of chance of seeing any of franchise’s other recent releases here. Dragon Quest VII, Dragon Quest Monsters: Terry’s Wonderland 3D, Dragon Quest Monsters 2, Dragon Quest Heroes: Rocket Slime 3, and Dragon Quest X have all stayed in Japan.

Splatoon screenshots (2/25/15)
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Screenshots, Wii U | 2 Comments
Another couple of screenshots have come in for Splatoon. This time around, we get to hear about “Octo Valley”. View both of the images below.
This is ‘Octo Valley’ – the starting point for Hero Mode.
Cap’n Cuttlefish lives here watching over the Octarians.
He’s not lonely, though. Heroes are destined to live a life of solitude.
He tells you that he hasn’t seen his grandchild recently…without you even needing to ask.The Octarians live under the ground in Octo Valley.
Connecting their headquarters to the surface is this kettle-shaped transportation device.
Undoubtedly, the Octarians have set a trap and now lay in wait.
No time for carelessness! Ah, if only I was a little bit younger!
