A note about recent connectivity issues with Splatoon
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 15 Comments
Have you been experiencing any issues/errors while playing Splatoon over the past day or so? Well, it’s not entirely out of the ordinary.
Errors were something that Nintendo was somewhat prepared for. Actually, Nintendo mentioned this on the company’s Japanese Twitter account last night.
If you’re encountering errors, you should try resetting your Wii U. That’s definitely the first step you should take. If you’re still seeing issues for whatever reason, try reentering your connection settings on the console or rebooting your router. All should hopefully be fixed by taking these steps!
Thanks to John for the tip.

Super Mario Maker now thought to have over 60 levels, one designed by Rayman’s creator
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 18 Comments
Originally, we thought that Super Mario Maker could have as many as 100 levels. That information was based on a tidbit found on the game’s UK website a few weeks back. The blurb was just updated earlier this week to say that Super Mario Maker will offer “dozens” of levels.
The final level count now seems to be sitting at over 60 based on information coming from Nintendo of France. It also looks like Rayman creator Michel Ancel has designed one of the courses. Below, you’ll find a video of Ancel playing around with Super Mario Maker and talking about the series – though it’s unfortunately only available in French.
