5th Cell: Wii U “definitely” more powerful than PS3/360, Scribblenauts Unlimited started on Wii
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii, Wii U | 0 comments
5th Cell CEO Jeremiah Slaczka says the Wii U is “definitely more powerful than Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.” Slaczka’s team is currently working on Scribblenauts Unlimited for the upcoming console.
When asked for his impressions of the Wii U hardware, Slaczka stated:
“(The Wii U is) definitely more powerful than Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. It’s kind of frustrating to see the rumours and speculation of people going back and forth saying it’s weaker or more powerful. It’s definitely more powerful.”
Slaczka noted that his studio was “one of the first developers to see the Wii U.” He also said that Scribblenauts Unlimited started off on Wii.
“I think we were one of the first developers to see the Wii U. Nintendo came to our studio and demoed it to us. A couple of weeks later Warner Bros. got to see it, and we said we should do this. This game was originally a Wii title but later moved to Wii U. It’s been about two years in development.”

Two Tribes thinking about RUSH on Wii U
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 0 comments
A few years back, Toki Tori-maker Two Tribes brought the puzzle game “RUSH” to WiiWare. While some fans may have forgotten about it, the IP could reappear on the Wii U.
Okay, that’s not even close to being confirmed. Two Tribes is thinking about the possibility, however.
The company wrote on Twitter earlier today:
“Think along: if we were to bring RUSH to Wii U, how would the controls work? So many options!”
Nintendo pulls away from Wii U/3DS unified accounts
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News, Wii U | 0 comments
Recent comments from a Nintendo customer service representative indicated that the Wii U and 3DS would eventually get unified accounts. In other words, the two systems would be tied together in some ways through the technology.
Now Nintendo is backing away from these remarks. Charlie Scibetta, Sr. Director of Corporate Communications at Nintendo of America, has attempted to clarify the situation.
Scibetta said:
“Nintendo has already announced the Nintendo Network as a unified ‘network platform’ that delivers current and future online services to the Nintendo 3DS system and the upcoming Wii U console. These services include, but are not limited to, multiplayer online game play and the ability to download both add-on content and full games that are also available as packaged software. Further details on these services will be revealed at a later date.
“However, there is no current announcement concerning a unified online ‘account system’ between Wii U and Nintendo 3DS, which suggests payment implications that Nintendo is not ready to confirm at this time. We hope this clarifies any misunderstanding.”
