Well, this should do it. WWE 2K14 won’t be coming to the Wii U, assuming 2K Sports doesn’t make a last-minute announcement.

The official WWE Games Twitter account wrote yesterday that the game “will only be available for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.”

I’ve never been a big video game sports player, but it’s concerning to see that the Wii U is missing out on these types of titles. You would think that sports games would be a shoe-in for the console. Yet, the Wii U now won’t be receiving WWE 2K14, Madden, and FIFA. I wouldn’t be surprised if 2K Sports decides to keep NBA 2K off the system this year as well.

There are some really smart people out there who do really cool things, and thanks to those smart people we now know more about what’s inside the Wii U Gamepad, both from a hardware perspective and a hardware perspective. Here’s the breakdown of what we’ve learned:

– The Gamepad has upgradable firmware, meaning its functionality could expand over time
– One of the folks working on reverse engineering the Gamepad says this could mean cloud-based gaming/functionality in the future
– You could send the Gamepad data to the internet instead of to the Gamepad, play it from there/access it
– “Only speculation”, he says, “[nothing] in the firmware that would indicate they are planning to do this”
– Dual-Gamepad support is already built in, so developers could technically use it if they wanted

System 3 announced Putty Squad earlier today, an update of the classic 1994 game. This isn’t the only remake in the works. In an interview with Nintendo Life, studio founder Mark Cale teased “a very big announcement” that will be made “just before E3”.

He said:

“We have a very big announcement to make just before E3. I will give a hint: do you like building simulators?”

That title will likely make an appearance on both of Nintendo’s platforms. According to Cale, “All of our games are planned to support 3DS and Wii U where possible.”

Warner Bros. has announced Scribblenauts Unlimited, confirming a rumored report last month. A release is planned on the Wii U, 3DS, and PC this fall.

Players will once again take on the role of main character Maxwell, who will travel to famous DC Comics locales such as Gotham City, Metropolis, Atlantis, and more. You’ll come across the likes of Batman, Superman, and other Justice League members, plus Super Villains including The Joker, Lex Luthor, and Sinestro. Maxwell’s magic notebook will be needed “to put a stop to the villains’ evil schemes and save the day”.

New to Scribblenauts Unmasked are the “dynamically created puzzles” known as Heroic Feats. These “increase the game’s replayability by continuously generating original scenarios requiring different solutions with each visit.”

Unmasked will also include a new Super Hero Creator tool for the Wii U and PC versions that allow users to create their own Super Hero or Super Villain using any DC Comics universe item and modifying behaviors, appearances, and powers. Creations can be shared with the community and download other players’ characters.

You can find the official Scribblenauts Unmasked announcement below.
