Mat Piscatella, executive director and video game industry analyst at Circana (NPD), relayed a little sales tidbit about the Wii U today that we couldn’t resist sharing.
The console has been phased out for years with Switch now Nintendo’s primary device since 2017. Finding a Wii U at a retailer at this point is practically impossible – and the platform wasn’t exactly popular to begin with. However, as it turns out, a single new Wii U was sold in the U.S. last month. The last time a Wii U was sold in the states was in May 2022.

Posted on 1 year ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Switch, Videos | 0 comments
Just in time for Halloween comes the latest Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl 2 spotlight trailer, which shows off Lucy Loud and her moveset.
While she retains some of her moves like teleportation for strong mobility, she has new moves as well. A big aspect is that the character can use the power of the occult to enhance her abilities. Her down special lets her move between her normal, ghost, and vampire forms. The ghost form is lighter, but is more mobile. Her vampire form has slower movement speed but stronger attacks. In Lucy’s normal form, she’s an all-arounder that’s also a little heavier.
