The Wii got off to an incredible start around the world when it launched back in 2006 – including in the UK. It maintained momentum for quite some time, but dropped off significantly over the past few years.

Wii’s downturn in sales has paved the way for Microsoft’s system, the Xbox 360, to become the best-selling current-generation home console in the UK. GfK Chart-Track says that it’s only a matter of days before the Xbox 360 lands in the top spot.

Microsoft has sold 8.4 million systems across the UK.

Armikrog received full funding on Kickstarter late last night. And just a few moments ago, the game hit its Wii U stretch goal.

The race towards Armikrog’s Wii U version truly came down to the wire. The $950,000 target was reached with less than two hours remaining in the campaign.

Congratulations to Pencil Test Studios for its success!

This is rather peculiar. For some odd reason, Miiverse users aren’t able to post screenshots on communities for Square Enix’s Virtual Console titles.

The restriction only appears to be in place for Square Enix’s classic games. As far as we can tell, all other VC titles fully support the screenshot function.
