Wii U

Nintendo published the second edition of its Iwata Asks Wii U series. The latest discussion focuses entirely on the GamePad.

There are still lots of technical tidbits that will probably go over most people’s heads (including mine!), but there is a bunch of interesting information. The latter parts tackle the GamePad design, the changes it experienced since it was first showed at E3 2011, and more.

The summary is below. For the full Iwata Asks, visit this link.


Mighty Switch Force HD has received a final name. The official Nintendo website reveals that the downloadable Wii U eShop title will be called “Mighty Switch Force! Hyper Drive Edition”.

Details from a new fact sheet can be found below.


Don’t expect a Tales game on the Wii U anytime soon. In a new interview, series producer Hideo Baba all but ruled out a new project from happenning in the near future.

Here’s what Baba said about the possibility:

“We don’t have any plans at the time [to bring the Tales series to Wii U]. But the Wii U is very unique hardware, which has one big screen [on the TV] and one small screen [on the controller], but with the console for development of an RPG, the players need to play for a long time, so we need to create a game in which the gameplay will help players feel less stress.”

I honestly have no idea what Baba is talking about here. But hey, it is what it is.

A new variant of the Wii U Pro Controller has popped up on EB Games’ Australia website. An unofficial – meaning third-party – controller is in the works, and it’s styled much like a SNES controller.

The product can currently be pre-ordered for $48 AUD. In Australia, Nintendo’s own Pro Controller will sell for roughly $30 more.
