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.”

Mario Kart 8 may not feature voice chat
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 45 Comments
Will Mario Kart 8 feature voice chat? Right now at least, the answer seems to be “no”.
Mario Kart 8 already has a listing up on the eShop. Online multiplayer, leaderboards, and Miiverse are all included in the “Supports Online Play” sub-category. Voice chat, however, is nowhere to be found. Typically, “Game Chat” is listed if a particular game supports the feature.
This isn’t exactly an official confirmation from Nintendo, though right now I wouldn’t expect the functionality to be included.
