Although Disney hasn’t confirmed it, numerous pieces of evidence suggest that Epic Mickey 2 is in development. If the speculation is to be believed, Junction Point is preparing the game for the Wii (and possibly Wii U), PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360.

We might be hearing something official about the game next month. The latest Nintendo Power is making the rounds, and the magazine’s teaser page for their April issue says the following:

“There will be no fooling around when it comes to our April issue. We’ll have the final word of Kid Icarus: Uprising and Xenoblade Chronicles in our full reviews, and get an exclusive whiff of a top-secret title that promises to make your head spin.”

In reference to the “top-secret title”, Nintendo Power included a pair of ears that are apparently very reminiscent of Oswald the Lucky Rabbit.

We don’t have an image of the teaser page yet, but we’ll add it into this post once we get our hands on a photo.

Two Nintendo Direct presentations will be taking place tomorrow morning.

First, Nintendo of Japan will stream a presentation from Satoru Iwata. This will begin at 6 AM EST / 3 AM PST.

Following this, Nintendo of America will post up their own version of Nintendo Direct. Like the first show from last year, Reggie Fils-Aime will take viewers through the latest Nintendo news. The North American presentation is set for 9 AM EST / 6 PM PST.

You can keep track of the Nintendo Direct websites here and here

I wouldn’t expect any megatons, but as usual, we should receive some nice tidbits about upcoming games as well as new footage of Wii/3DS titles.

Thanks to 4Him and Travis P for the tip!

Nintendo launched the Japanese-exclusive Wii no Ma channel in May 2009. The service allowed users to view a variety of video content including cartoons and educational shows.

Much like the cancellation of Minna no Theater Wii late last year, Nintendo will soon be ending the Wii no Ma channel. The company announced today that, starting on April 30, the service will no longer be accessible.

According to Nintendo, 8.11 million users have used the program and 4.49 downloads have been registered.


VBlank Entertainment has been working on Retro City Rampage for quite some time. Finally, though, the game is nearing its completion.

The studio has confirmed that the game will be available in May. It’ll arrive on WiiWare, as well as the PlayStation Network, Vita, and Steam.
