Oxygene Media slams I’ve Got to Run! dev on Miiverse over review
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News, Wii U | 17 Comments
Update: The thread has now been removed, but the evidence sadly remains.
This is about as bizarre as it gets. Oxygene Media, who may now be most well-known for astroturfing on Miiverse, has slammed the developer of I’ve Got to Run! over a review.
Syrenne McNulty reviewed one of Oxygene Media’s latest games, Fit Music for Wii U, as she is both a developer and journalist. Oxygene wasn’t pleased with the verdict, and after learning that McNulty is the creator of I’ve Got to Run!, posted the above message on Miiverse.
Things didn’t end there though. Oxygene continued its posts, and McNulty also stepped in briefly to mention that the company isn’t being professional:
Definitely sad to see something like this. Can’t we all get along?!

Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 37 Comments
Terrarria won’t be coming to Wii U, according to 505 Games.
The publisher ruled out any potential plans to bring the title to Nintendo’s console on its official forums. 505 Games said, “there are other factors at play that prevent it from happening and we don’t expect that to change any time soon unfortunately.”
The company’s full comments are as follows:
We do not have any plans to bring Terraria to Wii U and it is not in development. Sorry. While the control mechanism may be nicely translated (agreed on that end), there are other factors at play that prevent it from happening and we don’t expect that to change any time soon unfortunately.
