REDMOND, Wash.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–It’s a full count. One more out will win you the game. Standing on the pitcher’s mound, you study the batter and aim for the outside corner. You take a deep breath and unleash the baseball toward home plate. The ball curves just as you planned. Suddenly and unexpectedly, the bat cracks and the ball soars into the air. You thrust your arms in the air, poised to catch the fly ball. Catch it and the game is over. You win. The ball falls closer and closer to your outstretched hands.
While this sounds like an intense game of real-life baseball, it is actually the experience anyone can have using the GamePad controller in Wii Sports Club, which arrives in stores on July 25. The Wii U game includes updated and reimagined versions of Tennis, Bowling, Golf, Baseball and Boxing from the original Wii Sports game for Wii, with each sport using Wii MotionPlus technology and new GamePad features for enhanced control.

Nnooo developed games not planned for Wii U currently
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 2 Comments
Nnooo is working with 3 Sprockets to bring Cubemen 2 to Wii U. However, the studio said in a recent Reddit AMA that there are no currently plans to bring over any of its homemade games to Nintendo’s console currently.
While that may be sad for some, Nnooo did at least have positive things to say about Wii U. Blast ‘Em Bunnies could have been a possibility had the company not been preoccupied with other matters, and the studio praised Nintendo for “making amazing content for their platforms.”
While we totally love the Wii U at the moment we have no immediate plans to release any Nnooo developed games on it. We think that Blast ‘Em Bunnies would be a great fit for the Wii U but we have our hands more than full with the current slate of platforms!
I think Nintendo are doing a great job, as always, of making amazing content for their platforms. Personally I think they maybe underestimated how much goes into making an HD game and trying to support two consoles with great graphical fidelity is pretty tough! As they have said aligning their tools and tech so that they can more easily make games for both platforms, should they want to, will really make things easier and quicker for them in the long run.
