If you’ve been itching for a way to play your emulated games on PC with a proper controller, the Wii U Gamepad might just be your cup of tea, courtesy of Kotaku reader “Chris”. Chris says the software should work on most PCs and right now allows you to map all of the buttons on the Gamepad to wherever they need to be, and in the future he wants to allow you to stream your emulator games to the Wii U Gamepad, as well as enable touchscreen support. Here’s the video:

Nintendo teamed up with Ubisoft in Europe to launch a ZombiU Wii U bundle, but NOA decided not to follow the same path. Now, however, one retailer is listing a similar product… for Canada.

Located on Best Buy’s site here is a new “Limited Edition” Wii U 32GB ZombiU Deluxe Set. Pricing is set at $399.99, and a February 17 release date is listed.

It’d be nice if Nintendo made this bundle available throughout North America!

Believe it or not, we’ve already been given a first look at Bayonetta 2.

Nintendo produced a new behind-the-scenes video for its Nintendo Direct presentation in January, and showed a very brief snippet of a monster at the end. That one second of footage was produced in real-time, according to director Yusuke Hashimoto.

Hashimoto tweeted a few days ago:

“The monster that appears at the end of the Bayonetta 2 ‘making-of’ video is done in real-time on the Wii U (the first in-game footage?).”

Hashimoto later tweeted that the developer video’s music is one of the new songs included and Bayonetta 2.

Last but not least, producer Atsushi Inaba also confirmed on Twitter that a ROM check on Bayonetta 2 has been completed. Good news, I suppose!

One could argue that Trine 2: Director’s Cut is among the best games of Wii U’s launch lineup. That begs the question: could we ever see the first Trine on the console?

The short answer is no. Frozenbyte vice president Joel Kinnunen recently said that bringing the first Trine to Wii U “would be quite a bit of work” because the game “is based on our older technology”. Kinnunen wouldn’t rule out the possibility completely, but don’t count on a port/remake happening anytime soon.

“…it’s unlikely. Trine 1 is based on our older technology, so something like this would be quite a bit of work. Who knows what happens in the future but we’re not working on any Trine 1 related things at the moment, and have no plans either. Sorry!”
