In a world first for an indie game on a Nintendo platform, Nnooo is bringing cross-platform multiplayer and user generated content to the Wii U system with the hugely successful Cubemen 2. Cubemen 2 is a fast-paced 3D strategy game in which the player controls an army of Cubemen, using them to battle against enemies in a range of modes. Players will be able to enter online matches and create and share user-generated levels regardless of which platform they are using. Players on the Wii U version will be able to battle against other players who own the game on Wii U, PC, Linux®, Mac® or iOS device.

“I’m really proud to be able to announce this,” said Nic Watt, Creative Director at Nnooo. “We’ve spent the last few months working with both Nintendo and 3 Sprockets, the game’s developer, to make this a reality. Cubemen 2 is an amazing game and a great fit for Nintendo players. We can’t wait to see how creative they are, whether in tactical multiplayer online or in the new levels they build.”

Rumor has it that Wii U and 3DS will soon be receiving a shared eShop balance. It’ll work like this: if you add funds on the Wii U eShop, the total will be carried over to the 3DS store – and vise versa.

Don’t expect to hear anything about this today, though. The rumor, which comes from Emily Rogers, isn’t expected to be covered during the Nintendo Direct presentation in just a couple of hours.

When CastleStorm was initially revealed, Zen Studios hinted at a release on Nintendo systems. Months went by without any sort of announcement regarding additional platforms, but we assumed a Wii U version was in the works – and now we’re one step closer to receiving a confirmation.

We recently spotted a Wii U listing for CastleStorm on the USK, a ratings board in Germany. The site also has entries for PlayStation 3 and PS Vita versions.

In hopes of obtaining an official confirmation, we reached out to Zen Studios. We were first told that the company intends “to bring CastleStorm to as many platforms as possible.” “Timing is always a challenge”, Zen Studios also said when it comes to an announcement, “however Nintendo fans will be enjoying more Zen Studios games this year”.

So that’s kind of like a confirmation, without obtaining an actual confirmation. Based on the USK ratings and Zen Studios’ non-denial, I’m pretty sure we’ll be seeing CastleStorm on Wii U (and PS3, PS Vita) as originally expected.
