Nintendo of America executive vice president of sales and marketing Scott Moffitt shared a few more words about Amiibo while speaking with GamesIndustry.
Moffitt brought up a few points, such as how Nintendo wants to do something different and not mimic the competition. He also mentioned that Amiibo offers “a great value as parents don’t have to buy a starter kit.”
Moffitt ultimately sees Amiibo as something with a lot of potential due to the growing market and adoration of Nintendo IP.

Wii U and 3DS versions of Transformers: Rise of the Dark Spark lack Escalation mode
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News, Wii U | 10 Comments
Transformers: Rise of the Dark Spark features an “Escalation” mode – a co-op multiplayer survival mode, essentially. In it, players team up to face off against waves of enemies.
Unfortunately, we now have confirmation that the Wii U and 3DS versions of Transformers: Rise of the Dark Spark won’t include Escalation. It’s hardly surprising that the handheld version lacks the functionality, as it’s more or less a completely different experience. However, it’s a bit disappointing to see that the Wii U version of Transformers: Rise of the Dark Spark won’t offer the mode since the game stacks up similarly to the other console releases.
