Starcraft 64 was the last time Blizzard Entertainment assisted in development of a Nintendo console game. There was StarCraft: Ghost, too, but that’s practically vaporware at this point.
So yes, it’s been quite some time since Blizzard was actively involved with a Nintendo system. But could the studio work on the Wii U in the future?
When StarCraft II lead designer Dustin Browder was asked this question, he admitted that he wasn’t familiar with the console. After receiving an explanation of the GamePad, Browder said:

Renowned “Baddest Man on the Planet” to Make Flagship WWE Videogame Franchise Debut Through Exclusive Pre-Order Offer
AGOURA HILLS, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Jun. 19, 2012– The campaign premise of “Live the Revolution” continues, as THQ Inc. (NASDAQ: THQI) today announced the return of the incomparable Mike Tyson to the ring – virtually – in WWE® ’13, the revolutionary next installment in the WWE flagship videogame franchise. Often touted as the “baddest man on the planet,” the boxing legend and former undisputed heavyweight champion of the world will be available as an exclusive playable character for consumers who pre-order the videogame at any participating retailer in the United States or Canada for the Xbox 360® videogame and entertainment system from Microsoft, PlayStation®3 computer entertainment system or the Wii™ system from Nintendo (while supplies last).
Tyson made headlines with WWE (NYSE: WWE) in early 1998 as part of the company’s groundbreaking “Attitude Era,” a time period prominently featured in WWE ’13 through a brand new single-player campaign. He is best remembered for his appearances leading up to and at WrestleMania® XIV, where he was recruited by D-Generation X (DX) to serve as a ringside enforcer during the main event match between DX member Shawn Michaels® and Stone Cold Steve Austin® for the WWE Championship. Tyson, sporting a sleeveless DX t-shirt and black jeans – the same look as his playable character in WWE ’13 – interfered in the match, allowing Austin to secure the victory and ultimately abandoning his presumed alliance with the renegade faction. Tyson returned to WWE on January 11, 2010 as a guest host on Monday Night Raw® and was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame on April 2, 2012.

Miyamoto on competition, worried about continued reliance on games with guns, more
Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News, Wii U | 0 comments
Just when we thought that all of the E3 2012 interviews with Shigeru Miyamoto had wrapped up, another one came into view!
While the comments below touch on the competition once again and how companies are using some similar ideas as Nintendo, Miyamoto’s remark on the high quantity of titles focusing on guns these days was most interesting point to me, personally.
Basically, Miyamoto said that he is sometimes concerned with “the continued reliance on making games that are so centered around guns, and that there are so many of these games.”
That’s a small teaser for you folks. All of Miyamoto’s comments can be read below.

Takashi Tezuka has been offering some valuable insightful into the Mario series through numerous interviews. He’s probably the best man to talk about the franchise (aside from Miyamoto!) since he’s been working on it since the first Super Mario Bros.
Tekuza’s latest remarks include the reasoning behind the similarities between all of the New Super Mario Bros. games, how Donkey Kong Country Returns’ visuals motivated the NSMB Wii team, the possibility of a touch screen only Mario, and more.
For Tezuka’s exact quotes, head past the break.
