Shin’en tweeted out a few Wii U-related technical tidbits on Twitter over the past few weeks. Here’s a quick overview as to what was shared:

@MaxWill37699872 Art of Balance Wii U will be around twice as large as NAN, and FRN much bigger.

@Romanus_rain @ShinenGames We can't imagine releasing ever anything on Wii U sub 720p and 60fps.

@Mike12Nite @ShinenGames For Nano Assault Neo i think we used 8:1 aniso sampling for all textures and FXAA here and there.

Toki Tori 2 is the last Toki Tori game

Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 5 Comments

Two Tribes is done making Toki Tori games. The studio’s Collin von Ginkel told NintendoLatino that after Toki Tori 2+ didn’t meet sales expectations, “we’ve decided that we are not going to be making a new Toki Tori game, ever.”

We could still see the character in the future, albeit in a much smaller role. Something like a cameo appearance or Easter egg would be possible.

Well, since Toki Tori 2 + did not perform as well as we had hoped, we’ve decided that we are not going to be making a new Toki Tori game, ever. He’ll be back in some Easter egg probably, but we are moving on and taking on other genres.
