Bandai Namco and UIG Entertainment are bringing a pair of simulation titles to Europe. Professional Farmer 2016 and Professional Lumberjack 2016 are on the way to Nintendo’s console.
Below is an overview of each game:
Professional Farmer 2016 will take players to the countryside in one of the most realistic and authentic farming simulations ever made. Choose your favourite tractor from many different official constructors, care for it in your own garage and then take it out on the field ready for a day’s work. The game features a huge world to farm across, differing distinctive seasons, a career mode and even dynamic field management depending on the type of grain. Live the farming dream across many hours of gameplay.
In Professional Lumberjack 2016 players manage their mighty crew of cutters, create a prosperous sawmill and expand their woodland business in a realistic world ruled by the different seasons. A great lumberjack knows their Bigtooth Aspen from a Slippery Elm. To get the job done, players must understand each tree and identify the right tool in order to gain the greatest return on their hard work in the most efficient way possible.

Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 239 Comments
A couple of months back, there was speculation about Fatal Frame: Maiden of Black Water potentially being an eShop-only game in North America. This is something that Nintendo confirmed in its press release that was just issued a short while ago. Nintendo specifically says that Fatal Frame: Maiden of Black Water “launches exclusively in the Nintendo eShop on Wii U on Oct. 22 for $49.99, just in time for Halloween.”
You’ll be able to experience the prologue, chapter 1 and most of chapter 2 for free. Players can then purchase the full version as DLC directly from the eShop or via the in-game menu.
