Nintendo has come out with a new Zelda: Twilight Princess HD trailer highlighting the game’s story. Check it out below.
Zelda: Twilight Princess HD tweet (1/28/16)
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 5 Comments
After several pieces of concept art shared throughout the week, the latest Zelda: Twilight Princess HD message added to the series’ Twitter account is a bit random. But hey, it does come with a neat GIF!
Here’s the full translation:
“…It’s Malo. Today a so-called designer comes to the village to hold a special lecture… I see, he’s a dextrous guy… If I feel like it, I’ll ask him to renew the signboard for my shop.”
?????HD?…?????????????????????????????…???????????…?????????????????????????? pic.twitter.com/1Sfq7qEkAH

For those that are confused, this seems to be more like a demonstration as to how the designer drew the illustration, as shown in the tweet’s GIF.
Details behind Super Mario Maker’s “emergency maintenance”
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 7 Comments
Super Mario Maker’s online functions were taken down for “emergency maintenance” earlier this week. Nintendo didn’t say what was happening, aside from how they would be addressing a bug that occurs in “Create” mode. So what exactly was this all about?
Kotaku has a more in-depth explanation, but below are some excerpts from the site’s report:
“Joseph discovered a video where another player claimed their level had been hacked, as someone else had managed to achieve a world record on a puzzle level in less than three seconds.
Joseph realized the “hacker” had access to items that weren’t in the original level. In Mario Maker, it’s possible to download other people’s levels and edit them, but that’s not what was happening here. The “hacker” was playing the level on the server, which is why their world record times were being recorded.
