Team Ninja willing to work with Wii U again, no plans to port existing games as of now
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 4 Comments
Team Ninja and Nintendo have formed what seems like a pretty good relationship over the past few years. The studio produced Metroid: Other M for Wii, and last year delivered Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor’s Edge in time for the Wii U’s launch.
Having said that, Team Ninja has been quiet when it comes to Nintendo’s console as of late. Yaiba: Ninja Gaiden Z – a new game being produced in conjunction with Comcept and Spark Unlimited – won’t be heading to Wii U. While Team Ninja is very much open to working with the system again, studio head Yosuke Hayashi told Joystiq that the company currently has “no plans to port existing games to Wii U.”
“Of course, I think there are games that would be good for Wii U. So I think we need to still see what exactly those games they are and how you make a game for Wii U that is perfect for the Wii U. So if we get a chance to make a game like that, well, maybe we can think about it then. But right now we have no plans to port existing games to Wii U.”

Ubisoft: Nintendo has some of the best IPs in the world, Wii U can find an audience
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News, Wii U | 1 Comment
For the second time in as many days, Ubisoft executive director Alain Corre has spoken positively about Wii U.
Corre shared a few comments about the console as well as Nintendo in general while speaking with IGN. He was quick to point out the popularity of Nintendo’s IPs, which are among the world’s best. Regarding Wii U, Corre believes “that they’ll be able to sell more machines in the future”. He also noted: “It’s up to them to work on more communication to get the machine into more hands.”
Corre’s comments in full:
“There are millions, tens of millions of fans of Nintendo brands. I’m sure you’ve played Mario Kart for hundreds of hours. I did too. There are so many great franchises that are still making people dream. We think these brands will stay with us. After that, it’s up to Nintendo to make sure that the machine can reach as many consumers as possible. We all think that they’ll be able to sell more machines in the future. They have some of the best IP in the world, and some of the best memories for their players. If you’ve played Smash Bros. in the past, you want to play the next one. So these brands have a future, for sure. It’s up to them to work on more communication to get the machine into more hands.”

The image above is quite a bit bigger than the original Mario & Sonic at the Sochi 2014 Olympic Winter Games boxart we posted. I figured we should make a new post given how you can actually see it this time around!
Zelda: Wind Waker HD bundle confirmed, comes with special GamePad design
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Podcast Stories, Wii U | 7 Comments
A now-pulled trailer for The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker HD confirms rumors of a Wii U bundle. The package will come with a 32GB console and a copy of the game.
Perhaps best of all is the special design included on the GamePad. There’s a small chance that it’s a decal, but given how Nintendo approaches its limited edition 3DS releases, it’s likely embedded right in. You can get a look at the controller through the image above.
