Wii U eShop

Enlightened Games released a new trailer for The Song of Seven: Chapter 1, which is due out on Wii U in early 2016. View it below.

Minecraft: Story Mode Episode 2 – Assembly Required came out earlier in the week (though we’re still waiting for it to hit Wii U along with the first episode). Take a look at some footage from the download below.

Moving Player and Fractal Box are teaming up to bring Cubikolor to several platforms, including Wii U. A release is planned for Q1 2016.

Cubikolor is a puzzle title in which players move a cube around various stages. The goal is to have the cube’s colors match the boxes you land on so that they can be elevated. There are over 150 of them in the game, and three gameplay modes are included.

Check out a trailer for Cubikolor below.

We’ve previously talked about the IARC rating system and how it would be extremely beneficial for eShop developers as well as gamers in general. Thanks to what it provides, anyone can easily submit their title and have it rated in various regions.

We recently heard that the IARC rating system would be coming very soon to the eShop. And interestingly, it looks like this has now happened. Information coming from a pair of independent developers reveal that the system is up and running for Nindies. We probably won’t see any immediate results, but developers are now starting to take advantage of what the IARC provides.

Nintendo eShop

Nintendo’s various shops are undergoing some heavy maintenance in just a few days. This will begin Sunday evening for those of you in North America and in the very early morning on Monday over in Europe. The Wii U and 3DS eShops, Wii Shopping Channel, and DSi Shop will be affected.

The upcoming maintenance is particularly notable due to its length. It seems that the maintenance period will last nearly an entire day.

Here’s the full breakdown of times:

– 7 PM PT (Sunday) – 7 PM PT (Monday)
– 10 PM ET (Sunday) – 10 PM ET (Monday)
– 3 AM in the UK (Monday) – 3 AM in the UK (Tuesday)
– 4 AM in Europe (Monday) – 4 AM in Europe (Tuesday)

As for the reasoning behind the downtime, Nintendo says that it’s planning a large-scale exchange of servers. It’s also possible that the maintenance will end a bit early, though you should definitely expect it to take awhile!
