New advertisements promoting Nintendo’s Wii U partnership with Burger King have started to appear at fast food restaurant outlets. As expected, one toy will be included with every Kids Meal.

We’re still unsure as to when this offer will begin. I’d say next month is likely!

Fire Emblem, Doom 4, Endless Ocean, Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles, Kingdom Hearts, Nintendogs, Red Steel III, and Trauma Center. These are eight of the games that Norwegian retailer “CDON” listed on their website as coming to the Wii U.

Yea. No seriously they did. Look at it.

I can’t honestly believe that any of these games are truly coming to Wii U anytime soon, but I can’t help but wish for a few of them… coughTraumaCentercough.

The Wii U eShop can’t be too different from what’s offered on the 3DS store, but Nintendo still hasn’t said much about it.

As the wait for actual information continues, Trine 2: Director’s Cut producer Lauri Hyvärinen says that the eShop “sounds very promising.”

“Nintendo is taking online very seriously with Wii U. Everything we have seen and heard about the Wii U eShop sounds very promising.”

Hyvärinen also discussed his hopes for the digital store. So long as it isn’t expensive to update titles and the certification process is easy, he’ll be happy.

“Our hopes as developers are quite simple: inexpensive updating and easy certification process. That’s really it. If the Wii U eShop can deliver either one of these, or even both, then we will be very happy!”

When Reggie comes on for short interview segments rather than the whole show, there usually aren’t a ton of interesting revelations. Still, his appearances are always a good time, so be sure to watch GT.TV later this week!
