You can forget about F1 2013 coming to the Wii U.

Writing on Twitter, Codemasters creative director Steve Hood said that F1 2013 would “have to be a very different game just to run on the Wii U”. That means if you want any sort of F1 action, you’ll need to settle for F1 Race Stars Powered Up Edition.

Hood’s tweet read:

Zordix AB has prepared on a patch for Aqua Moto Racing 3D in order to address a number of bugs and improve stability.

Here’s the official overview from the game’s developer:

We are releasing a patch for our newly released game Aqua Moto Racing 3d. This is a small patch which attempts to fix some smaller issues with the save system and some stability issues we have noticed after the games release.

We have also noticed that on certain memory cards the game have problems with writing Street Pass times to it after a race. This might make your game sound stutter, for some almost nothing, for others a bit more. We recommend that if you do have this problem and feel it ruins your game experience you turn Street Pass functionality off, this will correct the problem instantly. The Street Pass functionality can be turned off from within the game in the settings.

The Aqua Moto Racing 3D patch is out now.

The Soul Saga Kickstarter has come to an end, but it was most definitely a success for developer Disastercake.

A total of $192,222 was raised over the span of a month. Disastercake’s original goal was just $60,000.

Thanks to the huge support given to Soul Saga, the game managed to reach most of its stretch goals on Kickstarter. Soul Saga will indeed come to PlayStation 4, PS Vita, and Wii U. It will also feature elements such as voice acting.

You can find out more on Soul Saga here.

Wii U’s sluggish start is far from a secret. The console’s disappointing start extends to the UK, where sales have been slow – to put it mildly.

A new report on Gamasutra paints an ever worse picture for the Wii U in Britain. According to the site, the system managed to sell just 179,000 piece of software at retail this year. Gamasutra notes, “Even if digital sales added 10 percent to the total software units sold on the Wii U, its year-to-date results would just barely match retail software sales for the moribund PlayStation Vita.”

It’s all on Nintendo to fix the situation. The company hopes that with the new releases coming to Wii U this year, things will begin to turn around.
