Retro City Rampage’s control options on Wii
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 0 comments

Retro City Rampage’s release on Wii (through WiiWare) is still in the pipeline. When it finally does launch, players will be able to take advantage of a few control schemes.
The 2D open-world title will offer support for the Wiimote, GameCube controller, and Classic controller. Developer VBlank Entertainment suggests using the latter option over the first two, however.

Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Podcast Stories, Wii | 0 comments
A new Wii update is now available for download. Given its successor will be out in just a few days, this could be the old console’s final firmware upgrade.
Nintendo hasn’t officially said what the new update does. One probable guess is that by applying firmware, you’ll be able to transfer content from the Wii to Wii U.

Posted on 12 years ago by Austin(@NE_Austin) in General Nintendo, News, Wii, Wii U | 0 comments
The quotes here are kind of long and boring, so here’s the bullet-point version, with quotes after the break:
– Research firm is “IHS Screen Digest”
– They predict 3.5 million Wii U sales this holiday, outselling Wii
– This is mostly due to Nintendo “evangelists”
– They expect long-term Wii U sales to be about 70% of Wii sales
Hit the break for the specific quotes.
