A look at the transfer animation between Wii U consoles
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Images, Wii U | 3 Comments
When transferring content from a Wii to Wii U, an animation is shown involving Pikmin. Nintendo implemented something similar when moving content between Wii U consoles.
Rather than Pikmin, the Wii U to Wii U transfer animation features little robots that make similar noises. There’s also a small story – one robot is missing, so one of the guards goes searching for him.
You’ve got to love the sort of effort Nintendo puts into these things!

Get Off My Lawn! heading to Wii U
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 2 Comments
Digital Leisure is bringing a new game to Wii U titled “Get Off My Lawn!”. Not much is known about it at present, but the USK lists the title’s genre as arcade/shoot’em up.
We followed up with Digital Leisure late last week, and while we couldn’t secure any additional information, we were told that the company is “prepping a release in the coming weeks”. I assume we’ll be hearing more soon then!

SEGA expects 3DS to be its biggest selling single platform this financial year
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News, Wii U | 10 Comments
SEGA is putting most of its efforts into the 3DS this financial year. The company has 13 SKUs planned for the system (which could include limited editions and download games) and estimates that they’ll sell a combined 2.27 million units.
Wii U, on the other hand, isn’t expected to move as many games. SEGA forecasts that the console will be the seventh biggest contributor for SEGA this year with 600,000 sales across 4 SKUs. Wii U falls behind all other mainstream gaming platforms aside from the Xbox One.
