Festival of Magic coming to Wii U

Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 0 comments

SnowCastle Games is now a licensed Wii U developer. The company’s first order of business: a Wii U version of Festival of Magic.

Festival of Magic is an adventure RPG featuring “a Nordic take on an Eastern genre.”

An official game description reads:

“Festival of Magic is an adventure RPG with a Nordic take on an Eastern genre. Grow spuds and use your harvest as powerful ammunition or spells; craft your weapons and team up your companions for battle. Solve challenging puzzles, collect rare items and explore various dungeons scattered across the world.”

Festival of Magic doesn’t have a release date yet, but hopefully we’ll be seeing it on the eShop soon.

Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 0 comments

Super Ubi Land is getting a name change. Developer Notion Games has been in contact with Ubisoft, who may have requested a different title due to the similarities between “Ubi” and “Ubisoft”.

A tweet sent out by Notion Games reads:

Been exchanging emails with Ubisoft. Unfortunately, we have to change the title of #SuperUbiLand. Stay tuned.
— Notion_Games (@NotionGamesLLC) May 6, 2013

When we last heard, Super Ubi Land was on track for a spring release. Hopefully that’s still the case.
