Why Woah Dave! didn’t end up on Wii U
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 1 Comment
Woah Dave! launched on the 3DS eShop just recently. In the case of Wii U, some may wonder why the game didn’t land on the console.
The decision, at least partially, can be attributed to game engines. Choice Provisions felt that bringing Woah Dave! over would be “difficult” as it would have needed to be ported to Unity or C++, according to former Nintendo indie head Dan Adelman.
One of the games they showed was Woah Dave!. Being a good Nintendo employee, I of course asked whether they were planning on releasing it on Wii U. They told me that it would be really difficult to do, because the game was originally created with an engine that would make porting to Wii U difficult. They would need to port the game over to Unity or C++.

Mighty No. 9’s Beck has a slightly updated design
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS eShop, News, Wii U eShop | 0 comments
Beck, the main character of Mighty No. 9, has a slightly updated design. Beck now has more of a white-themed style going on.
Director Koji Imaeda explained the change over on Mighty No. 9’s official website:
From the very beginning we designed Beck to have a neutral, grey base, with the idea of wanting to make something completely new and unique.
But development soldiered on, and as we approached the last leg, we started looking closer at Beck. As a protagonist that could absorb the abilities of his siblings and take on various forms, our image of his appropriate color shifted from “neutrality” to “containing all possibilities”… and since white is a combination of all colors of light, we felt that would actually suit his character better! Hence, we went with the coloring change.
Pure and simple, this Beck is ready to take on all kinds of cool transformations. We hope you like our new-and-improved hero!
So there you have it, Beck’s look has gone from good ol’ gray to a new, noble white!
You can get a look at Beck’s new design in the “boxart” image above.
