Trashmania Trilogy moved back to late May/early June, will feature online functionality
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 0 comments
When we last heard about Trashmania Trilogy, the download was targeted for Q1 2015 on Wii U. Those plans have since changed.
Creator Jonathon Bont took to Twitter today and confirmed that Trashmania Trilogy has been pushed back to late May/early June. This is due to “the unexpected size the project has grown to.”
To make up for the delay news, Bont confirmed that Trashmania Trilogy will feature online functionality. There will be “online leaderboards for Classic+ and custom level sharing for Remix+”, and Bont teased that “the latter approaches level sharing in a unique way.”
It's official: I'm pushing Trashmania Trilogy's release date to late May/early June 2015. #wiiu

Official reasons are not technical or Wii U specific issues, but instead a lack of time and the unexpected size the project has grown to.

HOWEVER, as a way of saying sorry, here's an announcement to cheer you guys up: online functionality is being worked on!
— Jonathon Bont (@Animan13) December 28, 2014
Specifically, online leaderboards for Classic+ and custom level sharing for Remix+… the latter approaches level sharing in a unique way.

I won't give away what makes it unique, but I'll just say it's different from how it's normally done. 😉

Iwata on his “Super Programmer” days, helped get Smash Bros. Melee out on time
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in GameCube, General Nintendo, News | 19 Comments
Satoru Iwata became the president of Nintendo in 2002. Prior to that, however, Iwata worked at HAL Laboratory for many years and helped program a wide array of games.
In an interview with 4Gamer (via StreetsAhead translation), Iwata spoke about his proficiency with programming. One notable thing mentioned: “… I believed things like that I could write better NES code than even Nintendo’s (EAD) engineers or that I could write the fastest, most compact code.”
Iwata also spoke about the development of Super Smash Bros. Melee, which “didn’t look like it was going to make its release date”. He “did the code review, fixed some bugs, read the code and fixed more bugs, read the long bug report from Nintendo, figured out where the problem was and got people to fix those.” Thanks to his efforts, Melee launched on time.
Head past the break for Iwata’s full comments.
