CW-Games planning “Flavoured Cats” for the Wii U eShop
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 5 Comments
CW-Games has announced “Flavoured Cats” for the Wii U eShop.
A few screenshots from the game as well as a brief overview can be found below.
Flavoured Cats is highly inspired by Super Mario 64 and Super Mario 3D Land, with a very cute touch.
But don’t drool to much over it, a game as cute as this one, hides a pure evil story!
We try to aim on both, male and female Super Mario fans, all over the world, and should deliver a similar experience too!
Flavoured Cats does not have a release window at this time.

Tantalus’ new Wii U game is a port “for an absolute top notch publisher”, not a mature game
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 11 Comments
The existence of a new “AAA” title from Tantalus Media, seemingly for Wii U, was outed over the weekend. Director of development Joss Ellis has since provided a few hints as to what the company will be working on.
Ellis teased that the game in question is a port, “but more of a complete rework for the Wii U” – think Deus Ex: Human Revolution. It’s also “for an absolute top notch publisher” and won’t be a mature/hardcore experience.
According to Ellis:
It is a ‘port’ but more of a complete rework for the Wii U: a bit like the work we did on Deus Ex: Human Revolution – Director’s Cut.
I can’t say what the title is but it is very exciting and is for an absolute top notch publisher.
This game will be credited Tantalus … it’s not an MA / 18 or ‘hard core’ game which ME-3 and DX:HR are.
