Circle Entertainment posted two concrete pieces of news on its Twitter account today. One concerns a title we haven’t heard before, while the other is about a release in one particular region.
Toy Defense is now confirmed to be coming to 3DS. It’s already done, and it’ll be launching soon. This is likely the tower defense game that hit mobile platforms several months ago.

Aperion Cyberstorm’s control options detailed, including golf grip setup
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 0 comments
Aperion Cyberstorm is going to support a whole bunch of controllers. The Wii Balance Board might be the only exception, which I don’t believe players will be displeased about!
Speaking with Nintendo Life, developer aPriori Digital went over the different control options included in Aperion Cyberstorm. One of these is simply using the Wii Remote for “something like a golf grip.”
Here’s the full explanation from aPriori:
Regarding controllers, we’ve tried to support every official option as far as possible — sorry, no balance board…
As we said last year, the game will support a Wii Remote without an attached Nunchuk. We figured there are a lot lying around or cheap to buy, so getting five players together should be simpler than other options. When we got down to it, we realised the logistics of mapping a twin stick shooter to that device.
