Wii U

Capcom won’t have any Nintendo games on display at E3 2012 next month. That’s according to a company representative.

As far as we know, Capcom has absolutely nothing in the works for North American 3DS owners. Monster Hunter Tri G still hasn’t been announced for the continent, but fans were hoping for a confirmation within the next few weeks. And although Capcom is creating Monster Hunter 4 and Professor Layton vs. Ace Attorney for the 3DS, it’s unknown if either title will leave Japan.

We also don’t know what Capcom has in store for Wii U, if anything. Perhaps the company is just playing coy to make some splashes at E3 (or maybe I’m just delusional, which is probably the case).

I honestly wouldn’t be posting about this under normal circumstances. However, Ben 10: Omniverse has just been announced for Wii U (as well as Wii, 3DS, DS, PS3, and Xbox 360), so I figured that was substantial enough to make a new post about it on NE.

It’s interesting to see these Wii U game confirmations just a few weeks before E3. Ubisoft revealed Avengers: Battle of Earth for the console a few days ago.

You can find details about Ben 10: Omniverse below.

Journey Through Time as Young and Teen Ben in Ben 10: Omniverse™, the First Game Based on the Highly Anticipated Cartoon Network Series

D3Publisher (D3P) and Cartoon Network Enterprises (CNE) today announced that they will bring Ben 10: Omniverse™, the first video game based on the highly-anticipated, brand new animated series of the same name, to store shelves this fall. The series will introduce fans to an entirely different Ben 10 experience through an all-new character design that pays homage to Ben’s past and a fresh batch of aliens to battle. Ben 10: Omniverse will also mark the debut of Ben’s new sidekick Rook, a skilled but inexperienced Plumber graduate. The Ben 10: Omniverse interactive game from D3Publisher will release on the upcoming Wii U™ system from Nintendo, the Wii™ system from Nintendo, Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, PlayStation®3 computer entertainment system, Nintendo 3DS™ hand-held system and Nintendo DS™ hand-held system.

In Ben: 10 Omniverse, players will be immersed in exciting action-brawler gameplay featuring the new art style inspired from the show. Gamers will have the power to switch forms and battle as one of 13 playable alien heroes, including never-before-seen aliens like Bloxx and Gravattack, as they work with either Ben or Rook to defeat the evil plans of a fierce villain, intent on destroying the world.



THQ has started a countdown for Metro: Last Light, which is teasing a live-action video of some sorts. The company likely wants to bring some hype to the game as E3 2012 approaches.

The countdown expires in nine days. You can keep track of it here.


EA’s popular soccer IP is coming to Wii U. Eurogamer states that FIFA 13 for Nintendo’s upcoming console is being made by a separate team, adding “how exactly it’ll differ from the mainline version remains a mystery.”

I assume we’ll hear more during E3 2012 next month.
