Little Orbit has announced through an official Facebook page that Young Justice: Legacy has been cancelled for Wii U and Wii.
The decision to pull the plug on both versions was “based on several factors.” For one thing, there were concerns about Young Justice’s quality on Wii U and Wii, not to mention a lack of support from retailers. Little Orbit still intends to ship the 3DS version of Young Justice: Legacy.
The official cancellation notice reads:

Miyamoto talks combining elements from 2D/3D Marios for 3D World, game has “so many new ideas and surprises”; also not ruling out more Galaxy-like games
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Podcast Stories, Wii, Wii U | 0 comments
Shigeru Miyamoto has previously spoken about Nintendo’s desire to lessen the gap between 2D and 3D Mario players. This is something he reiterated during a recent media session.
He said:
“The joy of a 3D Mario game for me is really that you’re able to move freely in any direction and use lots of different fun actions while exploring a world. The joy of a 2D Mario game for me is that anyone can play these games and have a good time, even if it’s their first time playing a game. There’s a certain kind of simplicity to the concept of simply proceeding in one direction and reaching the goal.”
“The first time I think that we brought all of these disparate elements from these two different series together was in Super Mario 3D Land. But in the case of Super Mario 3D World, I think that we’ve found a way to evolve further in incorporating all of these elements, or have reached another goal, if you will.”
“Now that’s not to say that we may not make more games in the vein of Super Mario Galaxy in the future. I’d certainly like to consider that possibility. But our goal right now is to expose as many people as possible to this type of gameplay in a 3D world. And I think what we’ve come up with here is the most balanced system in which to do this.”

Regular Wii units discontinued in Europe, but Wii Mini sticking around
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 0 comments
As it turns out, the Wii’s discontinuation isn’t specific to Japan. It’s also going out of production in Europe, with one catch.
Going forward, it’ll be much tougher to find a regular Wii system in European regions. Nintendo, however, says the Wii Mini isn’t leaving just yet.
A representative told MCV:
“Wii imports to Europe have been discontinued. However, there are still a variety of options for consumers to enjoy Wii games and the Wii gameplay experience. Wii U, which is Nintendo’s latest home console, is backwards compatible with nearly all existing Wii games and accessories, so you can enjoy a vast library of disc-based and downloadable Wii games and Wii gameplay experiences when you switch to Wii Mode on Wii U. Wii Mini is also now available across Europe offering Wii gameplay experiences at a great value. Wii Mini puts the focus squarely on games with over 1200 existing disc-based Wii titles to choose from.”
