We’ve had two dates for Sonic Lost World thus far. Over the past couple of days, SEGA revealed that the Wii U and 3DS titles will be out in North America on October 22 and Japan on October 24. What about Europe?
Gamers across the continent will have access to Sonic Lost World first. SEGA has made it official: Sonic Lost World will be available in Europe on October 18. It’s not a huge difference, but every day counts!

Hideki Kamiya, developer of the original Bayonetta and supervisor to the Wii U sequel, is interested in making a third entry in the series.
A fan asked Kamiya on Twitter if he would consider creating another Bayonetta if Bayonetta 2 becomes a hit. His response was simple but effective:
I hope so. RT @Patpadi1: if Bayonetta 2 going to be a hit would you think about it to make a third part ?

Dragon Quest X version 1.5 trailer
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Videos, Wii, Wii U | 0 comments
ZombiU is currently on sale over at Playasia for $17.90. Throw in $4.90 for shipping, and the total comes out to around $23.
ZombiU is being sold through Play-Asia, but keep in mind that this is the US version. It’s like walking into GameStop and purchasing the game, but at a cheaper price.
Thanks to lmalafaia for the tip.
Ubisoft wanted to make sure Rayman Legends could be played with your fingers
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 0 comments
Companies have come up with products that are somewhat similar in nature to the GamePad. Microsoft, for instance, created a second screen experience through SmartGlass. But the Wii U has an advantage, Rayman creator Michel Ancel believes, since it’s the most responsive.
Ancel has also spoke about the GamePad’s touch screen. He prefers playing with a finger, and told ShackNews that “it’s not very natural to play with the stylus.” And so Ancel and the rest of the Rayman Legends development team created the game so that it could play well with a finger rather than a stylus.
“I think most of the kids now are more comfortable with tablets, they use their fingers. …we did some special developments to interpolate what the player is doing. It’s more accessible than most of the other Wii U games.”
