Yacht Club talks about its relationship with Nintendo
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS eShop, General Nintendo, News, Wii U eShop | 2 Comments
Shovel Knight has been highly trumpeted by Nintendo since the game’s early days of development, up through release. Heck, the title is even playable at the Nintendo World store right now.
All in all, Yacht Club Games’ Nick Wozniak says Nintendo has “been really accommodating to our weird requests, and getting stuff done to see if they can promote us better.”
You can find Wozniak’s full comments about working with the Big N below.

Oddworld: Abe’s Exoddus could get the remake treatment as well
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News, Wii U eShop | 0 comments
Oddworld creator Lorne Lanning is open to remaking another one of the series’ entries, Oddworld: Abe’s Exoddus.
Lanning told Wired that it may very well be the next project the team takes on depending on success. If New ‘n’ Tasty sells well, we should eventually be seeing Abe’s Exoddus in HD.
Lanning said:
With success, yes. The number one thing is selling games — when they profit, we can make more games. With success, Exoddus will be the next game we make and with a LOT of success we’ll start making new IPs.
Also while speaking with Wired, Lanning discussed why it wasn’t possible for Oddworld Inhabitants to make a new IP. The studio ended up rebuilding Abe’s Oddysee since that’s what fans requested the most.

Yacht Club could consider cross-buy for Shovel Knight
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS eShop, News, Wii U eShop | 2 Comments
Yacht Club Games is open to the idea of cross-buy for Shovel Knight. Just don’t expect it anytime soon, as it’s something the studio would have to consider it first.
Yacht Club said on Twitter:
@PostMesmeric Sounds like a unique promotion at the moment! Something that's certainly in our minds just the same though.

Cross-buy is a much-welcomed feature on Nintendo platforms, but it has a long ways to go. It’s only available in Europe at present (with one game thus far), and the functionality seems to be limited to buying the 3DS version first and then picking up the Wii U edition for free.
