Publishers determine Wii U demo play limits
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Podcast Stories, Wii U, Wii U eShop | 0 comments
As is the case with the 3DS, Wii U demos from the eShop come with play limits. You can only boot up a demo a certain amount of times before it becomes inoperable.
According to a Nintendo representative, publishers determine how long demos remain on the eShop and how many times they can be played.
“Each publisher has the opportunity to decide how long demos will stay on the eShop, and how many times consumers can play them before they expire.”
When content expires, you’ll receive the following message when trying to start the demo:
“This demo can no longer be used. View information about the full version in the Nintendo eShop?”
If you select yes, you’ll be taken to the game’s eShop page.

Alongside Cloudberry Kingdom, Pwnee Studios is working on a brand new project.

Toki Tori 2 won’t be making its intended December 20 release date. Developer Two Tribes wrote on its website that it believes it “would do you a disservice to you if we release it in its current form.”
The developer is currently working on Toki Tori 2’s “weak spots, in all categories ranging from gameplay to graphics to technology.”
A final release date hasn’t been set, but Two Tribes hopes to have its first Wii U eShop game ready for early 2013.
Unepic heading to Wii U
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 0 comments
EnjoyUp Games and Francisco Téllez de Meneses are teaming up for a new platformer/RPG title “Unepic” for Wii U (presumably the eShop) and PC.
The entire adventure takes place in a huge medieval castle. Unepic makes use of an “eighty’s style” but is “completed with the most actual features.”
EnjoyUp sent over the following story description:
The hero is called Daniel, a normal guy from today: great videogame player, big lover of sci-fi movies, novice player of role games, pot-head and overall, a bit horny due to a misterious lack of success with girls. In the middle of a role game he is teleported to a castle and he thinks that he is having a massive hallucination due to any drug that their friends may poor in his beer while playing. So he decides to run his own adventure until the effect of the drug lasts.
In the castle, he will be possessed by a shadow, however this shadow cannot control him (being able only talk). The only way of the shadow to escape from the Hero’s body is by the death of the Hero, so the shadow will lie all the time giving false clues always looking for the Daniel’s death.
In the castle he will visit an oracle and find out what’s the goal of the story: to kill Harnakon, the master of the castle, and free Pure-Spirits. This story sounds typical for a role game, but during the adventure Daniel will discover that everything is not what it seems.
Unepic contains the following features, according to EnjoyUp:
