I think this looks really awesome, honestly! Having the boxart of all those games, true to their original shape/size, would feel so awesome. Not to mention how satisfying it would be to fill up those shelves!

Kickstarter project ‘Slashear’ could hit Wii U eShop with enough support
Posted on 11 years ago by Austin(@NE_Austin) in News, Wii U | 0 comments
Wii U owners are lucky in a certain respect. Despite the fact that big name multiplatform titles appear to be skipping their console altogether, they have the distinct honor of being able to choose, via Kickstarter, what indie titles they want to come to their system in the future. The latest in the online trend to bring indie games to Wii U is a game called Slashear, which has players running around smashing rabbits that are dressed up as famous movie characters with a baseball bat.
Here’s a video to make up for my poor describing abilities:
If you want to consider putting your money towards the game’s $64,000 Wii U goal (or its PC goal of $48K), you can check out its Kickstarter page here.

LEGO City: Undercover doesn’t need a separate hard drive after all
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Podcast Stories, Wii U | 0 comments
As it turns out, LEGO City: Undercover can be downloaded from the Wii U eShop without a hard drive. Wii U Basic Set owners will not be able to fit the 22GB file on their system, but Deluxe Set owners should be good to go. It will definitely take up most of a Deluxe Set’s internal storage!

Project Cars will probably run at 720p, 30 FPS on Wii U, will “look and feel amazing”
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Podcast Stories, Wii U | 0 comments
Not much has been said about the Wii U version of Project Cards, but it sounds like it’ll be a fairly competent version.
Developer Slightly Mad Studios is looking to achieve a resolution of 720p while maintaining 30 FPS. While some may have hoped for a higher resolution or FPS count, the company is assuring that the game will “look and feel amazing”.
Creative director Andy Tudor, in an interview with NowGamer, said:
“We always prefer to aim for 30fps generally in order to keep gameplay-specific features like having more cars on track or better weather effects etc. So that’s standard across all consoles, and we’re more likely to utilize the native 720p support of the Wii U for launch especially since our physics and rendering systems demand a lot of processing power in order to deliver a truly next-gen experience. All you need to know is that when you get the game, it’ll look and feel amazing and you’ll want to show it off to your friends.”
