Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 0 comments
NinjaBee originally hoped to have A World of Keflings out last year. That didn’t happen, but the studio is now targeting a late Q1 2014 launch for its Wii U eShop title.
NinjaBee wrote on Twitter earlier this month:
Sadly, we didn't release A World of Keflings for the Wii U last year. Thankfully, Keflings will be arriving in the latter half of Q1 2014.

Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 0 comments
Renegade Kid co-founder Jools Watsham has shared his own perspective with regard to working on Wii U.
Although Watsham noted on Twitter that he’s not a programmer, he did say, “from what I gather the Wii U is not more difficult to develop for than other platforms.” Simple enough!
Watsham’s tweet in full:
@ShawnLong85 I am not a programmer, but from what I gather the Wii U is not more difficult to develop for than other platforms.
