Following in the footsteps of his appearance in The Amazing Spider-Man, Stan Lee will be fully playable in LEGO Marvel Super Heroes. What powers will Lee possess in the game? Kotaku has the rundown covering most of them:

Telekinesis
Mind control
Spider-sense
Web swing
Hulking out into a super-string Big Figure
Eye blasts (like Cyclops)
Super-malleability (stretchy arms like Mr. Fantastic)
Hacking computers like Bruce banner
Magnetic powers like Magneto

Also worth mentioning, Stan Lee will be able to teleport, and has an adamantanium skeleton similar to Wolverine. When blasted by an attack, players will only be able to control a bunch of tiny metal bones until he regenerates back to his original form.

Awesomenauts isn’t currently planned for Wii U. Developer Ronimo Games explained to 4 color rebellion that the team simply doesn’t have enough resources. And so rather than taking on another version of Awesomenauts, the studio is looking to ensure that other versions of the game meet people’s expectations.

Romino wouldn’t rule out Awesomenauts for Wii U entirely, “but there are no plans for it right now.”

The company said:

“With regards to the WiiU, we currently don’t have plans to bring Awesomenauts to the platform. There is only so much we can work on at one time, and we rather focus on getting one thing done right, than end up with multiple things that didn’t quite get the attention they deserved. I can’t say that it will never happen, but there are no plans for it right now.”
