CW-Games planning “Flavoured Cats” for the Wii U eShop
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 5 Comments
CW-Games has announced “Flavoured Cats” for the Wii U eShop.
A few screenshots from the game as well as a brief overview can be found below.
Flavoured Cats is highly inspired by Super Mario 64 and Super Mario 3D Land, with a very cute touch.
But don’t drool to much over it, a game as cute as this one, hides a pure evil story!
We try to aim on both, male and female Super Mario fans, all over the world, and should deliver a similar experience too!
Flavoured Cats does not have a release window at this time.

Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 1 Comment
Shin’en is busy working on FAST Racing Neo for the Wii U eShop. Additionally, the studio has a second new project that will be announced in the very near future.
Art director Martin Sauter said on his website that the mysterious game “should get revealed in the next few weeks”. No further information was provided.
Sauter also left the following tease about FAST Racing Neo:
I can’t post too many information at the moment, but I can cconfirm, that this will not be a simple port or remake of the Wii version. It will be a standalone, full new product and we try it to create the most exciting eShop game in 2014.
Thanks to WALEED for the tip.

Nintendo pulls the plug on NES Remix Miiverse contest due to exploit
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 1 Comment
Nintendo kicked off a worldwide contest for NES Remix on Miiverse a couple of weeks ago that had players trying to complete a stage as fast as possible. However, an exploit was discovered which allowed users to unfairly manipulate their times. This has resulted in Nintendo cancelling the contest outright.
Director Koichi Hayashida wrote in a Miiverse post:
Hello Everyone. Thank you very much for participating in this event. Unfortunately, we confirmed that there is a way to exploit the challenge to achieve a faster time. In the interest of being as fair as possible, we decided to terminate the event without recognizing the fastest time. We know that you dedicated a lot of time and effort towards achieving your fastest time possible. We sincerely apologize for this matter, particularly because the vast majority of people played fairly. We appreciate your understanding. Thank you.
For those wondering, the exploit apparently lets players cheat the clock by repeatedly pausing the game.

Hörberg’s comments in full:
Right now no; I don’t want to be stuck rereleasing the same game for ever. but I have some vague Wii U plans for the future.
