QUBE in ONM (readable) #officialnintendomagazine twitter.com/shred__head/st…
— Daniel Da Rocha (@shred__head) June 7, 2013
A couple of month’s ago, QUBE’s developer showed an image of the game running on Wii U. This month’s ONM officially confirms QUBE: Director’s Cut for the Wii U eShop.
Director Dan Da Rocha said that the team is “revamping the game for the Wii U, bringing in an all-new story, an entirely new music composition, new puzzles and a time trial mode with 10 maps.”
QUBE: Director’s Cut is estimated to launch this fall.
Capcom updated the Japanese Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Dual Destinies website once again with screenshots and details. The page’s latest content is posted below.
– Athena’s Mood Matrix can assist you in reading emotions
– Not all emotions are stable and easy to read
– Apollo will be using his deduction skills in solving a crime that hits the youkai enthusiast village he was dragged to by Trucy
– Mood Matrix comes from Athena Cykes’ necklace
– This lets you examine witnesses’ emotions to help solve cases
– In one case, it can be used to help solve the case surrounding the death of a youkai enthusiast village’s mayor
– When overwhelmed by emotions such as fear, people’s memories and emotions get mixed up so it won’t be as easy to find the truth
– When Trucy’s friend Yumemi Tenma is called upon to testify on the case of the mayor’s death, the Mood Matrix picks up a bunch of youkai spirits, which are clogging up her memories
– This is due to the girl’s fear of ghosts and spiritual phenomenon
– Using the Mood Matrix, need to find which youkai seems to be bringing out the most fear in Yumemi
– In this case, it seems to be a cat monster riding on what looks like a flaming wheel
– The flaming wheel was actually a chandelier that was an important key to solving the case
– By getting a closer look at the witnesses’ emotions using the Mood Matrix, you’ll be able to work your way to finding the truth, one step at a time
– Apollo has the “Thought Route” ability
– This is similar to the Logic feature in Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth
– Players will use the Thought Route towards the end when Apollo is just a step away from finishing the trial, but can’t seem to put the nail in the coffin
– By looking back at facts, Apollo will be able to deduce a series of paths accordingly
– The game will present several choices from facts that were revealed to related key items
– As you make your choice, you’ll advance to the next branch of deduction until everything becomes clear
– Multiple routes for the Thought Route that must be deduced to find the one truth
– Can keep trying until you figure it out even if you make mistakes
– Useful when a case is just about to wrap up
– Third chapter takes place in the middle of a school festival
n-Space, known for games such as Geist and Heroes of Ruin, seems to be involved with Wii U.
At the moment, n-Space doesn’t have any announced projects in development for the platform. But lead engineer Justin Hare lists on his LinkedIn profile: “Ported large parts of nSpace engine tech to Wii-U”.
n-Space worked on quite a few Wii games, so it wouldn’t be too surprising so see them make the jump to Wii U. It’d be pretty neat if the studio revived Winter for the system!

We typically don’t post this kind of content on NE, but it’s so bizarre that I’d be doing a disservice if I didn’t share this with you all:
