Image & Form “seriously considered” multiplayer for SteamWorld Heist
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS eShop, News, Wii U eShop | 0 comments
SteamWorld Heist nearly had multiplayer. That’s according to Image & Form community manager Julius Guldbog, who said in a Reddit AMA that the functionality was “seriously considered”. Time was the only reason why it wasn’t included in the end.
Guldbog stated:
“We would love multiplayer and seriously considered it for Heist. In the end we ran out of time, simply.”
As another aside, the SteamWorld Heist hat packs are still planned for 3DS. Image & Form “ran into a nasty bug that will take some time to fix since DLC on 3DS didn’t work the way we thought,” though the team will “definitely compensate 3DS owners for the long wait”.

Wii U and 3DS eShop experiencing issues due to heavy traffic
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS eShop, News, Wii U eShop | 4 Comments
Are you unable to connect to the Wii U or 3DS eShops? There’s a reason for that. Nintendo’s maintenance page states that users may encounter issues loading the shops due to heavy traffic.
The Pokemon Sun/Moon demo just made its way to Australia and Japan, so that’s likely the cause here. Additional issues may pop up tomorrow once North America and Europe have access to it as well.

Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 0 comments
Santa Ragione is teaming up with MixedBag to bring Wheels of Aurelia to Wii U. The “narrative road trip game” is short in that playthroughs take roughly fifteen minutes, but there are sixteen different endings in total. You’ll follow “the story of Lella, a restless woman driving on the roads of the western coast of Italy”.
Here’s a trailer:
Thanks to a tweet from MixedBag earlier today, we now know that a Wii U version of Wheels of Aurelia is in the works:
