Unused text found in Smash Bros. Wii U relating to YouTube uploads
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Wii U | 5 Comments
The Cutting Room Floor is known for its ability to unearth data and information from games that wouldn’t be accessible under normal circumstances. In the case of Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, the site has found several lines of unused text that points to an unused feature in which users could upload videos to YouTube.
Here’s the full lineup of text:
Convert the replay data into a video and post it? This requires a Google account.
(Note: This process may take longer than the duration of the replay.)

Whom do you want to share this with? Data will be sent to the following number of people: .
Is this OK?
Sent.
Mario Kart 8 lets players upload race highlights to YouTube, so I don’t see why Smash Bros. wouldn’t allow for the same thing. Is the text above from a scrapped feature? Or will the functionality be added in down the line via an update?

Splatoon allows for motion control in Battle Dojo with a special code and unique setup (second player)
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 12 Comments
Splatoon features a 1-on-1 local multiplayer mode called “Battle Dojo”. One player handles the GamePad, while the other uses a Wii U Pro Controller, Classic Controller, or Classic Controller Pro.
As it turns out, the second player can actually enable a motion control setup thanks to a special input. With the unique code, that person can use a Wiimote with the Classic Controller or Classic Controller Pro to turn on motion controls.
As outlined by Nintendo in a Tumblr update:
One of our scientists has made a rather stunning discovery! From early reports, it appears to be a means of adding motion control to the controller of the player playing on the TV screen in Battle Dojo. On the controller selection screen for Battle Dojo, press and hold down on the +Control Pad, press and hold B, and then press ZR and ZL.
It seems a Wii Remote Plus is necessary to perform this incredible feat. This technique also appears to be possible when using a Classic Controller or Classic Controller Pro! When using a Wii U Pro Controller, first press ZL and ZR to select that as your controller, and then press the 2 Button on the Wii Remote Plus to activate it.

Disney Infinity team on how they managed to include a lightsaber in the first game
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii, Wii U | 1 Comment
Back in late 2012, Disney purchased the Star Wars franchise. Avalanche was also hard at work on Disney Infinity at the time. Although the team wasn’t able to create anything too significant surrounding Star Wars, they did want to include a treat for the fans. This ended up being the lightsaber, which players could unlock by owning all Disney Infinity 1.0 characters.
Disney Infinity vice president of production John Vignocchi was able to get in touch with one of his friends from Lucas before hearing about the Stars Wars acquisition, and after the deal went through, he began making calls.
Vignocchi told Game Informer:
“We want to do an ultimate unlock in the game. We’d like to put a lightsaber in the game. Here’s what we’re thinking: If you own all the figures then this is like this super-secret end of the end – the Yoshi on top of the Princess’ castle.”
Vignocchi also mentioned how the team needed to scramble in order to get the lightsaber in the game. Rather than sending it out via an update, they wanted it to be included as part of the game that shipped to stores.
