Why Axiom Verge’s physical version has taken so long to release on Wii U
Posted on 5 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 0 comments
Limited Run Games announced today that the physical version of Axiom Verge for Wii U will be available to pre-order on its website at the end of this month. It came as a bit of a surprise, given that BadLand Games had first made the release known two years ago and it’s been relatively quiet since.
GamesIndustry now has some insight into the situation, and as it turns out, things became very complicated with a bit of a legal battle between Limited Run and BadLand. Here’s a summary of what happened:
Axiom Verge finally receiving its physical release on Wii U
Posted on 5 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 0 comments
It was just over two years ago that a physical version of Axiom Verge for Wii U was revealed. Oddly, it never materialized.
Despite Badland having announced the original Wii U retail release, it looks like Limited Run Games has taken things over. The company says that this came about following “several years of struggle (and an ongoing legal battle over a huge amount of lost money at the hands of BadLand Publishing)”. The game will be available to order starting March 29 at 7 AM PT / 10 AM ET.

Posted on 5 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Random, Switch, Wii U | 0 comments
Have you ever wanted to play The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild without the cel-shading look? While that isn’t possible under normal circumstances, one modder has made it possible.
YouTuber Arkh Longstride has modded Breath of the Wild on PC with graphical tweaks and optimizations that spiff up the performance. As part of this, the cel-shading is turned off. Reflections and smoke are also improved in this version, while also increasing the action to 60 frames per second.
Here’s a look:

Posted on 5 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News, Switch, Wii U | 0 comments
A few months ago, Yacht Club Games dated a bunch of new Shovel Knight products for April 9. The physical version of Shovel Knight: Treasure Trove, Shovel Knight: King of Cards, Shovel Knight Showdown, and Treasure Trove amiibo 3-pack were all planned for that day. Unfortunately, this will no longer be happening.
Yacht Club said today that everything has been delayed “one last time.” All items previously scheduled for April 9 will be pushed back “several months – at most”.
Here’s the full update from Yacht Club Games:
