Wii U

I think Sakurai’s a little bit proud of today’s screenshots. The first is of Mega Man’s final smash:

Mega Man.EXE and Mega Man Volnutt!! They only appear for a split second, but the modeling is so detailed. And if that’s the case…!

And of course no Mega Man news would be complete without a dose of Mega Man X:

…How can we not use it for trophy creation?! Today’s update is a rare mix of Wii U and 3DS images in the same post.

Reggie Fils-Aime

IGN has gone live with several new quotes from Reggie Fils-Aime. The Nintendo of America president was asked about the possibility of Amiibo crossovers, Nintendo’s vision for Wii U, and how the company intends to avoid game droughts.

You can find a few interview excerpts below, and more over at IGN.

Another Hyrule Warriors pre-order bonus has been confirmed for Japan. If you reserve the game on the Koei Tecmo “GAMECITY” website, you’ll receive a set of post cards featuring Link, Zelda, Impa, Lana, and a mystery character. Only a limited amount of stock will be available to fans.

Bandai Namco announced today that the company has reached a worldwide distribution agreement with Slightly Mad Studios on the release of Project CARS. The game will be available on Wii U, PS4, Xbox One, and PC in November.

Here’s an overview of the racer:

Project CARS is the most authentic, beautiful, intense, and technically-advanced racing game on the planet.

Crowd-funded by a passionate community that has been involved in the development process throughout to create their ultimate racing experience, Project CARS allows you to create a driver, pick from a huge variety of motorsports, and shift into high gear to chase a number of Historic Goals and ultimate recognition in the Hall Of Fame. Then test your skills online either in competitive fully-loaded race weekends, leaderboard-based time challenges, or continually-updated community events – sometimes for real-world prizes.

Featuring the largest track roster of any recent racing game with a ground-breaking dynamic time of day & weather system, world-class graphics and handling, deep tuning & pit stop functionality, and support for Oculus Rift and Project Morpheus, Project CARS leaves the competition behind in the dust.

A couple of Project CARS trailers can be found above.
