Update: Added in another tweet from Kamiya:

If Nintendo wasn’t around, Bayonetta 2 probably wouldn’t be either. This is something that has, more or less, been stated a few times before, but supervisor Hideki Kamiya – and director of the original game – reiterated the situation on Twitter.

When one fan asked about who came up with the idea to make Bayonetta 2 a Wii U exclusive, Kamiya responded by noting that “There was no way other than that.” Kamiya is saying that the project wouldn’t exist (or perhaps would have been canned) if Nintendo wasn’t involved.

Thanks to Tim for the tip.

A 2D game doesn’t seem like a great candidate for glitches… does it? Turns out that New Super Mario Bros. U has a handful of em to check out, so I tackle two of them in this new episode of Eggbusters. The first glitch doesn’t go quite as planned, but all things considered I’d say that the second one easily makes up for the frustration. Check it out! (pah!)

Remember how Wii U users were at first forced to pay $60 for a digital copy of LEGO City: Undercover? It was an error on Nintendo’s part that was quickly fixed, but consumers who did pay the initial amount made out pretty well.

After contacting Nintendo, affected Wii U owners have received a $12 refund on their credit card or eShop account depending on the form of purchase. Additionally, Wii U Deluxe Set owners maintain the extra $10 worth of points in the Digital Deluxe promotion. Not too shabby!

Thanks to Jake for the tip.

“Why Wii U?”, Nintendo asks. What separates a Wii U from a Wii and what makes it better?

Nintendo has outlined the (fairly obvious) differences between the two systems through a retail flyer:

My question for Nintendo: what’s the point of this? Maybe it’ll help the uninformed consumer…
