AckkStudios teases “Project Y2K” for Wii U
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 0 comments
AckkStudios, the indie dev behind the upcoming Wii U eShop release of Two Brothers, is working on a second game for the console. The studio opened a new Tumblr for a mysterious title codenamed “Project Y2K”. It currently contains a piece of artwork (pictured above) and music sample.
In October, AckkStudios expressed some interest in bringing its 3D RPG to Wii U. Might this new Tumblr be related?

“Full Mojo Rampage” could come to Wii U if the PC version performs well enough
Posted on 11 years ago by Austin(@NE_Austin) in News, Wii U, Wii U eShop | 0 comments
“We are currently working with Windows/PC as the main platform, and maybe, if it makes sense, we will port it to Xbox 360, PS3 and WiiU in the future (ok, and maybe Xbox 720 and PS4!).” – Full Mojo Rampage website statement
I haven’t heard a thing about this game (probably because I don’t follow the PC gaming scene at all!), but the more eShop games the merrier as far as I’m concerned! The game would likely cost $15 as it does on PC, and if we hear a Wii U announcement you should start seeing trailers and screens pop up shortly thereafter!
Two Tribes discusses Toki Tori 2 delay
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 0 comments
Two Tribes pushed back Toki Tori 2 late last year, just days before the game was set to launch on the Wii U eShop. In a blog post today, the developer explained the reasoning for its decision to delay the game.
Collin van Ginkel, one of the developers, noted how he started to think of a new puzzle idea in early December. He also began to consider why Two Tribes would be submitting Toki Tori 2 to Nintendo in just a couple of days – why the team was pushing for a release before Christmas, why everyone was putting so much pressure on themselves, and more.
Runner 2 submitted to Nintendo
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Podcast Stories, Wii U eShop | 0 comments
Runner 2 developer Gaijin Games confirmed on its blog today that it has submitted the game to Nintendo. The team initially encountered “a bug that we absolutely couldn’t ship with.” While the fix wasn’t easy, Gaijin eventually “uploaded to Nintendo with confidence”.
Last we heard, Runner 2 should be out on the Wii U eShop this spring. It’s likely coming sooner rather than later given how the title has already been submitted.

If you’re in Europe and you want to see just how mainstream basketball games would play on Wii U, now’s your chance! You can snag the (free, of course) demo of NBA 2K13 on the Wii U eShop right this very second!
Reviews of the game have been pretty high, so even if you aren’t interested in the sport, maybe the demo is at least worth a look…
