Level-5 CEO would like to bring Layton 7 to Wii U
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 17 Comments
Layton 7 was first announced in 2013. At the time, it was slated for 3DS in addition to mobile platforms.
Layton 7 finally resurfaced today at Level-5 Vision 2015, but as a much different title. It’s now all about cards, a plot in which players must locate vampires among a crowd, and a 3DS is no longer planned. That being said, a Nintendo version hasn’t been ruled out.
Level-5 CEO Akihiro Hino has said that he would like to bring Layton 7 to Wii U. Whether that interest pans out remains to be seen.

Terraria for Wii U/3DS rated by the USK
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News, Wii U | 4 Comments
Terraria is pretty much a sure thing for Wii U and 3DS at this point. The game was listed by GameFly, and Nintendo versions appeared on Amazon soon after. Now we have yet another indication of Wii U and 3DS versions.
The USK – a ratings board in Germany – rated Terraria for both Wii U and 3DS. As expected, 505 Games is listed as the publisher.
There still has yet to be an official announcement for Terraria on Nintendo systems. It will happen soon, hopefully.
Thanks to Shinun for the tip.

Update: Translation of today’s image below.
“There must be a lot of people beginning a new school life today. Could there be a school in the squid world, too? An Inkling in a school uniform has been sighted. Do Inkling high school girls like cute things as well? Like weaponry with extravagant designs. That said… wouldn’t their teachers get mad if uniforms were taken into battle?”
Today’s Splatoon image gives us another look at the school outfit. Check it out above.
