Coda Games looking to become Wii U dev, interested in bringing Liege to Nintendo’s console
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U, Wii U eShop | 2 Comments
Coda Games has reached out to Nintendo in hopes of becoming a Wii U developer. Owner John Rhee told us that Nintendo of America’s Dan Adelman guided him through the application process, and he’s hoping to hear back from the Big N soon.
Some of you may be aware that Coda Games created a Kickstarter for Liege, “a party-based, tactical role-playing game”. PS4 and PS Vita versions were just added in as stretch goals yesterday, and the Wii U could soon head down the same path.
According to Rhee, he’d “love” to release Liege on Wii U, mainly due to the fact that SNES titles such as Final Fantasy VI and Chrono Trigger sparked his interest in RPGs. If he becomes a Wii U dev before the Kickstarter ends, the console will “absolutely” become a part of the campaign as a stretch goal.
And just in case you were wondering: Rhee also said that there aren’t any plans for a 3DS version “at this stage”.

Pikmin 3 reportedly off to a good start in Japan, based on retailer feedback
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 6 Comments
It won’t be entirely clear just how well Pikmin 3 is performing in Japan until Media Create provides official data tomorrow, but the early word is encouraging based on retailer feedback.
Pikmin 3 managed to top the charts of Japanese retail and rental chain Tsutaya. Director of the Game Rental Planning Group Taketo Matsuo says that the title’s strong sales have also moved Wii U hardware units.
“Pikmin 3, that came out nine years after Pikmin 2, is having a really good start. Sales at Tsutaya are comparable to the release of Super Mario Bros U and have driven greater sales of Wii U units.”
To compare, New Super Mario Bros. U sold over 160,000 units in its first week in Japan.
Sonic Lost World now coming on October 22
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News, Wii U | 2 Comments
When we last heard about Sonic Lost World’s launch, SEGA pinned down an October 13 release date. That has since changed, albeit slightly.
Today’s new Sonic Lost World trailer mentions that the Wii U and 3DS games will be out on October 22. The European release shouldn’t be too far behind.
