Wii U

There’s a bit more to Mario Kart 8’s recent update than originally thought. Aside from what has been previously mentioned, the patch also does the following:

– Time Trials Miiverse post now can include a picture of the results.
– You can now display and hide the map in Highlights by pressing the -/Select button, and it also shows the name of the driver that the camera focuses on
– With Highlights of online races, it shows the player’s Mii, nickname and country.
– You can display and hide the map and player’s information when uploading a Highlight video to YouTube as well.
– Highlight videos uploaded to YouTube now have tags for the used parts (Vehicle, Wheels and Glider), and the time for Time Trials Highlights
– the skins of Yoshi and Shy Guy also have their own tags.

Additionally, here’s a look at adjustments made to the Mario Kart TV website:

– There’s now a “User Page”, which has a link to the User’s profile on Miiverse, Facebook/Twitter Share Buttons
– This page shows the user’s Race Rating, Battle Rating, Favorite Tournaments and uploaded Highlights to YouTube.
– You can now check Tournaments details like Schedule, Rules, Entry Code, Description, Rankings and uploaded Highlights to YouTube related to the Tournament.
– view a list of all your Friends and see Friends Currently Online
– This shows if a Friend is connected and it specifies if they are playing Mario Kart 8.

An image has popped up online showing a new Final Smash for King Dedede in the new Super Smash Bros. games. The shots reveal “Dede-Burst” – a move that sucks others in and attacks them multiple times with the hammer. Sound rather neat!

Three different Bayonetta 2 releases are planned for Europe. There’s the Special Edition, First Print Edition, and solus edition.

The former two releases will include the first Bayonetta. However, the same can’t be said for the solus edition. If you’re interested in Bayonetta 1, you’ll need to purchase either the Special Edition (£44.99) or First Print Edition (£59.99).

Nintendo is handling things much differently in North America. Just one simple release is planned for retail, and it includes both Bayonetta games.

Zelda producer Eiji Aonuma has been monitoring feedback about Hyrule Warriors on Miiverse. There’s one thing in particular that seems to have caught his eye.

Aonuma mentioned to Nintendo Life that players have been showing great enthusiasm for Hyrule Warriors’ cut-scenes. This has left him “a little conflicted”, and he wants to ensure that the new Zelda game for Wii U “can hold its own in that aspect against Hyrule Warriors”.
