Earthlock: Festival of Magic Kickstarter launched
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 3 Comments
SnowCastle’s Kickstarter for “Earthlock: Festival of Magic” is now live. You can find it here.
Earthlock: Festival of Magic is described as “an original turn-based role-playing game set in a world of machines and magic, a world that stopped spinning thousands of years ago.” Players will take on the role of Amon as they attempt to stop a war brewing on Umbra. To do so, they’ll need to unlock the mysteries of the planet “and prevent an ancient, magical cult seizing the power.”
Festival of Magic is Volume 1 of the Earthlock series. If the $150,000 funding goal is reached, the game will come to Wii U in Q2 2015.

Ubisoft talks Watch Dogs Wii U – reasons for delay, may ship this year, wants to make full use of Wii U
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 42 Comments
Ubisoft senior producer Dominic Guay has opened up about Watch Dogs’ lengthy delay on Wii U.
The publisher announced plans today to ship the title across all platforms on May 27 – except for Nintendo’s hardware. Guay couldn’t offer up an exact date as to when Watch Dogs will be hitting Wii U, but said an arrival later this year is a “possibility.”
Guay told Polygon:
“Yeah it’s still alive. We still haven’t defined a ship date for it, though. So it’s on hold, to a certain extent for shipping.”
“We don’t have a specific ship date for it yet so it’s considered within the year. So we’re going to look at that and we’re going to let people know as soon as we figure out an exact date for it.”
