EA hints that the full Origin experience won’t be on Wii U anytime soon

A few days ago, it was made clear that Origin will cooperate with the Wii U in some ways. For instance, players will need to have an account with EA’s service in order to play the company’s games online.
Just how extensive is the connectivity between Wii U and Origin? EA chief operating officer Peter Moore wouldn’t give a concrete answer when asked if the full Origin experience would be available on the console, but he did hint that the service is more geared toward PCs.
Moore said:
“We haven’t made any announcements on that… Origin continues to be a PC-centric service, one that’s moving quickly to mobile, but as things evolve in the coming years we’ll look at where the demand is. But at the moment Origin is very much PC centric and mobile centric.”
Amazon pushes back Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed release date?
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Rumors, Wii U | 0 comments
There is some concern that SEGA could be delaying Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed.
The console version was scheduled for mid November in North America. Now, just like the handheld editions, Amazon is listing Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed on the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and Wii U games for December 11. Consumers are also receiving emails from the retailer that Sonic’s new racer is expected to ship in December rather than November.
I imagine there are two main possibilities here: either Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed really will be delayed, or Amazon has no idea what it’s talking about.
Thanks to Lars Havnes for the tip.

Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 0 comments
Nintendo won’t say how much stock will be prepared for the UK launch of Wii U. That being said, the company did tell CVG that “stock levels will be tight on day one.’
The company said in a statement:
“Wii U stock levels will be tight on day one. However we will be providing retailers with regular stock deliveries in the run up to Christmas in order to meet demand as quickly as possible.”
Earlier today, CVG reported that Wii U stock could be as low as 25,000 units. A separate source, however, indicated that the figure could be between 75,000 and 100,000 consoles.
