It shouldn’t come as a shock that creator Michel Ancel franchise’s creator still has nothing to say about the project. He was asked for any sort of update in this month’s Nintendo Power, but Ancel was only able to reply with the following:

“[Laughs] I think the Wii U GamePad could be used nicely as a camera… [Laughs] No, to be honest, I’m really focused on Rayman Legends right now. I’m surprised how much of our energy it’s taking because I expected it to be an easier game to make. But because of the Wii U GamePad, we’re really focusing on this one. I can’t talk about what the next game will before us because it’s not set in stone yet, so I guess I don’t have a better answer for you. Sorry! [Laughs]”

Reggie wants to see GameCube titles on the Wii U VC, but can’t confirm anything

On Wii, the Virtual Console ran through the N64 era. Now that we’re entering a new generation, might we see GameCube games come to the VC service on the upcoming console?

Nintendo of America president would like to see it happen. However, he can’t confirm that Nintendo has any plans in the works to bring GameCube titles to the service.

“That is a great question. And personally I would love for that to happen, but we have nothing to announce right now.”

The Wii U won’t be compatible with GameCube discs. So the only way you’d be able to play classics such as Wind Waker on the system is through Virtual Console releases.

SEGA renews Skies of Arcadia trademark

Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in GameCube, General Nintendo, News | 0 comments

Back in July, SEGA renewed its Skies of Arcadia trademark. The game has long been rumored to be seeing a re-release as an HD port.

SEGA currently has three Dreamcast titles on the way that will be coming out with a fresh coat of HD paint.

Jet Set Radio HD is due out in a couple of weeks. Sonic Adventure 2 and NiGHTS should arrive shortly thereafter. Once those titles are out of the way, maybe SEGA will announce Skies of Arcadia HD… we can only hope!
