Notion Games originally changed the name of Super Ubie Land from “Super Ubi Land” in hopes of avoiding any potential issues with Ubisoft. Now, the indie Wii U title is getting another name change.

All things considered, Super Mario 3D World is a fairly small download. You’ll only need 1702MB of free space on your console or hard drive. That’s quite a bit less than another recent Wii U title, Sonic Lost World, which was 8475MB.

You Are Not The Hero dev open to console port
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 0 comments
You Are Not The Hero, a new action platform RPG, recently reached its funding goal on Kickstarter. The game will be coming to PC followed by support for other OS platforms such as Mac and Linux.
You Are Not The Hero’s Kickstarter success begs the question: could we see console versions as well? At the very least, creator Donn Manalili sounds open to the possibility.
Manalili said the following when 4 color rebellion asked if Wii U, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One ports would be considered:
“We want to focus on the PC and other OS ports first before we think about porting to consoles. Of course, consoles ports would be absolutely amazing and if we’re able to do that then we will. it’s a matter of funding, time, and engine capability. At this point, all three of those are questionable.”
