Wii Karaoke U does not censor any songs in Europe. This was intentional, Nintendo has confirmed. A statement sent out by the company says it “does not restrict which songs are included in the catalogue of songs” because the application “is intended to provide users with access to a large catalogue of songs from a broad range of music labels across a variety of musical genres – designed to appeal to all music tastes.” Note that a warning will be added within the eShop in the near future.

You can find Nintendo’s full statement below.


Along with today’s screenshot, Sakurai passed along the following message on Miiverse:

Link’s downward strike was designed to change to a Meteor Smash when the tip of the sword is aligned just right at the start. However, it will be removed if it’s deemed too powerful overall after some multiplayer play tests.

This week’s GameStop ad has gone live. It’s yet another slow week at the retailer, but you can find what’s being offered this week below.
