Take-Two doesn’t have much to say about Wii U
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 2 Comments
Aside from NBA 2K13, Take-Two Interactive hasn’t produced much content for Wii U. That’s unlikely to change in the future.
Take-Two Interactive CEO Strauss Zelnick once again commented on Wii U, telling GamesIndustry:
“We haven’t talked about specific titles in development, but we’ve said our strategy is to meet consumers where they are. If they’re buying hardware, we’ll be there with software. That said, we make these really big, AAA titles that work on some platforms, but not others.”
Zelnick said in June 2012 that he was “skeptical” about Wii U when it comes to core games. Apparently, his mentality hasn’t changed much since then.

Kickstarter: The adventures of Bit ‘n’ Ravh comes with Wii U stretch goal
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 4 Comments
Indie developer Guilherme Vargas is looking to fund his new project “The adventures of Bit ‘n’ Ravh” on Kickstarter. The side-scrolling adventure game needs $35,000 in order to receive funding, but Nintendo fans would likely be more interested in one of the campaign’s stretch goals.
The adventures of Bit ‘n’ Ravh will head to Wii U if donations exceed $75,000. Assuming the stretch goal is met, Vargas will acquire Wii U dev software and intends to bring in “skilled programmers” for the eShop release.
You can check out the Kickstarter page for The adventures of Bit ‘n’ Ravh here. The campaign ends on March 9.
