Wii U

Ubisoft has regained the rights to one of its main Watch Dogs trademarks in the US. Earlier this week, an abandonment request was filed, though the publisher said it was done so fraudulently. The USPTO accepted Ubisoft’s appeal and the trademark has been reinstated under Ubisoft’s control.

At the moment, Natsume doesn’t have any news to share regarding Harvest Moon for Wii U.

Community manager “CeeCee” recently responded to a number of requests for the series to appear on new consoles, most of which specifically mentioned Nintendo’s system. Sadly though, Natsume has “nothing to announce.”

CeeCee’s comments in full:

Unfortunately, there is nothing to announce at this time. The development of games on any specific consoles is very dependent on the install base of that console. The larger the install base, the better chance a unique game like Harvest Moon will do. Thus, we are always watching how each and every console is doing, and waiting for the right opportunity.

On Wii U, Miiverse has received a small update in order to match it more closely with the 3DS version.

The update pertains to two features. First, reloading has been switched from the L button to the Y button. Users can also now use the L/R buttons to quickly move up/down between posts.

Miiverse’s Marty shared the update news in an official post made earlier today:
