Wii U eShop

Nnooo is working with 3 Sprockets to bring Cubemen 2 to Wii U. However, the studio said in a recent Reddit AMA that there are no currently plans to bring over any of its homemade games to Nintendo’s console currently.

While that may be sad for some, Nnooo did at least have positive things to say about Wii U. Blast ‘Em Bunnies could have been a possibility had the company not been preoccupied with other matters, and the studio praised Nintendo for “making amazing content for their platforms.”

While we totally love the Wii U at the moment we have no immediate plans to release any Nnooo developed games on it. We think that Blast ‘Em Bunnies would be a great fit for the Wii U but we have our hands more than full with the current slate of platforms!

I think Nintendo are doing a great job, as always, of making amazing content for their platforms. Personally I think they maybe underestimated how much goes into making an HD game and trying to support two consoles with great graphical fidelity is pretty tough! As they have said aligning their tools and tech so that they can more easily make games for both platforms, should they want to, will really make things easier and quicker for them in the long run.

If Atlus hadn’t stepped in to help out with Citizens of Earth, the game probably wouldn’t have seen the day of light.

Originally, Eden Industries hoped to fund its title through Kickstarter. But after the campaign failed to meet its goal, Atlus assisted the studio with funding.

Eden Industries co-founder Ryan Vandendyck explained to Siliconera how the two sides ended up working together:

Listings on Nintendo’s website confirm two new Virtual Console games for the North American Virtual Console. Ufouria: The Saga will be available for Wii U while Blaster Master is hitting 3DS. Both are due out tomorrow.
