Virtual Console news was noticeably absent from E3 last week. Aside from new title confirmations from Capcom and Natsume, there just wasn’t much there.
As part of an E3 interview with Kotaku, Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime reaffirmed that Nintendo’s commitment to the service “is exceptionally strong.” He also explained, “there is significant work to take a game that was launched on a previous platform and make it compatible on the current platform”.
You can find all of Reggie’s comments about the Virtual Console below.

Super Ubie Island still planned for Wii U, now looking at Unity for the port
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 0 comments
Super Ubie Island still hasn’t hit the Wii U eShop yet, but Team Notion is still planning a release for the future. Various “problems” have delayed the port thus far.
Because of these issues, Team Notion is now going to handle the Wii U version through Unity and will be working with NewGen Interactive.
Team Notion recently said in a blog post:
There has been a lot of problems dealing with our game engine and programmers to get the game ported over to the Wii U. We are now looking at Unity and have contracted NewGen Interactive to create the port. We will have updates on Super Ubie Island’s Wii U progress soon.
