Mojang open to the idea of Minecraft on Nintendo systems
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News, Wii U | 41 Comments
Minecraft has graces most gaming systems, but it has yet to arrive on Nintendo platforms. That doesn’t mean developer Mojang is against the idea though.
“If I had my way, we’d be on everything,” COO Vu Bui told MCV. “We want to continue to be available to all players, and that means being on new platforms because everyone uses something different.”
MCV specifically asked if a Nintendo version of Minecraft could be possible. Regarding this, Bui said: “I’ve never heard a reason why we haven’t ended up on Wii U or 3DS. It just hasn’t happened yet.”
So how about it: is Minecraft something you guys would like to see on Wii U and 3DS?

Rumor: Nintendo not publishing Devil’s Third in North America
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Rumors, Wii U | 206 Comments
Nintendo of America has been noticeably quiet regarding the release of Devil’s Third in North America. Whereas it’s already been dated for August in both Europe and Japan, there hasn’t been a peep about its arrival in the states.
Liam Robertson, who has a fantastic track record of digging up information about cancelled projects as well as games that are still in the works, reports in a new video today that Nintendo won’t be publishing Devil’s Third in North America. It’d be up for Valhalla Game Studios to find a new company to handle its distribution in order for a release to happen.
