Man, this game is looking more and more beautiful (and funny!) every time I see it! Glad it’s probably hitting the Wii U at some point.

Developer of the upcoming Cloudberry Kingdom on Wii U “Pwnee Studios” told Aussie Gamer the other day that Nintendo has been great to work with relating to the development and publishing of their game on the Wii U eShop, and they were “pumped” when they got the chance to bring the game to Nintendo fans.

One of the more interesting bits of information to come from this is how simple it was to get Nintendo to let them publish the game on the eShop! They simply show off their game (probably to some Nintendo representatives), and the Big N makes the decision themselves based on how cool the game is. I find that to be quite a refreshingly simple way to get a game put out!

Runner2 is an absolutely lovely game. We suggest that you grab it from the Wii U eShop when you have the chance. There is just one problem with Runner 2’s release: lock-up issues.

Numerous users have noted that Runner2 causes the Wii U to freeze and lock-up when exiting the game. This doesn’t appear to be isolated, unfortunately.

Thanks to Jake for the tip.

Two Tribes hasn’t confirmed a price point for Toki Tori 2. Heck, we still don’t have a specific release date. But when Toki Tori 2 launches next month, most would probably agree that it’ll be worth your money no matter the cost.

On Twitter, Two Tribes said that its upcoming Wii U eShop game will probably take around ten hours to complete. That’s pretty lengthy for a downloadable release!

While most had guessed by this point that the upcoming reveal of Assassin’s Creed: Black Flag would be pirate-related, this new discovery (from the same tipster that brought Kotaku the original promotional poster image) cements it. As you can see, the image is a map of Cuba and the surrounding islands as well as a full-view version in the bottom left corner that says “The Coastlands of Florida”.

Whether this is the only location in the game is anyone’s guess, but it will most certainly end up being one of them.

Japan’s Wii U eShop is rather barren at present. A few retail games are up for download as well as the free-to-play Tank! Tank! Tank! version, but it’s lacking original indie content.

Arc System Works will be improving the situation by publishing Nano Assault Neo in Japan. This will be the Japanese store’s first indie Wii U eShop game.

Interestingly, without a Japanese publisher, developers can’t release their games on the 3DS or Wii U eShop.
