One of the more surprising Wii U announcements today was Oddworld: New ‘n’ Tasty. As it turns out, Oddworld: Stranger’s Wrath HD is also coming to the system.
Just Add Water is working with Oddworld Inhabitants on the Wii U titles. Both are due out next year and will be available on the eShop.
Super Mario 3D World won’t just support the GamePad as a control option. Players will also be able to use the Wii U Pro Controller when the game launches later this year.
A Nintendo representative said:
“The final product will be compatible with the Wii U Pro Controller so users will be able to decide which style suits them best.”
Mega Man 6 can now be purchased on the European 3DS Virtual Console. This is the first time that Capcom’s classic game is available in the continent. You can pick it up for £4.49/€4.99.
Batman: Arkham Origins senior producer Ben Mattes has officially gone on the record and confirmed to Joystiq that Kevin Conroy will not be involved with Batman: Arkham Origins.
He said:
“We’ve got Roger Craig Smith, he’s our Batman. Troy Baker, he’s our Joker. Kevin Conroy, he’s not part of this game.”
Conroy voiced the role of Batman in the previous two Arkham games.
It initially seeemd as though Conroy would be lending his talents to Origins after he announced at the Dallas Comic Con that he’d been working on “the next Arkham” title. But Craig Smith was eventually confirmed for the Batman role, and a deleted tweet from Conroy stated that he is in a new Arkham game that is “coming soon” as opposed to Origins.
Deus Ex: Human Revolution Director’s Cut is now coming to the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, PC, and Mac. The news was announced during a GameSpot stage show just a short while ago.
Square Enix previously announced Director’s Cut for Wii U, but hinted that other platforms could be getting in on the action in the future. The additional platform confirmations probably came sooner than most anticipated.
Deus Ex: Human Revolution Director’s Cut will be available later this year.
