Code Name: S.T.E.A.M. Strike Team Eliminating the Alien Menace trademarked by Nintendo
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 28 Comments
Nintendo has filed a new trademark with the USPTO. On April 2, the company picked up “Code Name: S.T.E.A.M. Strike Team Eliminating the Alien Menace”.
That’s a pretty interesting name, to say the least. I wonder what it could be about…
No more Sonic Lost World DLC planned
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 4 Comments
SEGA ended up creating three different pieces of DLC for Sonic Lost World. We saw content based on Nights, Yoshi, and The Legend of Zelda.
Those who may have been hoping for more Sonic Lost World DLC will be disappointed to hear that there’s nothing else planned. Producer Takashi Iizuka told 4Gamer in a recent interview:
You can see from our design of the DLC introduction page on our official site, we decided from the beginning that we would do three pieces of DLC. We are continuing to make it free, which is a bit difficult for SEGA, since both Yoshi’s Island Zone and The Legend of Zelda Zone were both in collaboration with Nintendo, but SEGA doesn’t have any kind of tradeout from there (note: means this next DLC is not being funded by another source).
Iizuka also mentioned to 4Gamer that for the Zelda DLC, working with Nintendo went smoothly. “We were able to work with so much material in the making of The Legend of Zelda Zone,” he told the site. “I have to say, in making Dodongo’s Cavern into a cylinder-shaped stage, we were all able to easily agree on it.”
As for what lies ahead for Sonic Team, Iizuka said that he’s not in a position to discuss anything at this time.
We’ll have a few more quotes from Iizuka’s interview with 4Gamer within the next couple of days.

Chubbins screenshots, plus a few details
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 0 comments
Dahku Creations has released a few screenshots from Chubbins on Wii U, which we’re told is tentatively slated for release in May. Among the images is a comparison showing improved backgrounds over the iOS version.
Like many Wii U titles, Chubbins can be switched between the GamePad and television. The GamePad presents a few control options such as the d-pad and shoulder buttons depending on the player’s preference. Menus can be navigated with the touch screen when playing on the controller.
As far as the future goes, Dahku “would absolutely love to continue support for the Wii U eShop (and 3DS if Unity supports it in future),” the studio’s Paul Burns told us. “We have other existing titles and are considering how they might be enhanced for Wii U, but we are also very excited about the possibility of future Wii U exclusives. The success or failure of Chubbins on Wii U will be an important deciding factor in how we proceed.”
