Mutant Mudds Deluxe will be available on the North American Wii U eShop on June 13.
WayForward hasn’t shared any new updates about Shantae and the Pirate’s Curse since revealing the game in Nintendo Power’s final issue. That was over a half a year ago.
Since then, WayForward has continued working on the project diligently “and the team has been plowing it away.”
Now when might we be hearing something new about Pirate’s Curse? Soon, apparently.
WayForward’s Matt Bozon told Nintendo Force this month:
“The new Shantae (Pirate’s Curse) is a huge endeavor and the team has been plowing it away. We have incredible talent on board and will be able to share more details shortly!”
There hasn’t been a mainline Fire Emblem game on a Nintendo console since Radiant Dawn for Wii. Keeping the franchise’s console origins in mind, could we see a new entry for Wii U?
Intelligent Systems wouldn’t say. The studio would only tell ONM:
“I’m glad you seem to be interested in an HD Fire Emblem, but unfortunately at the current time I can’t make any comments about any future games. Thank you for your understanding.”
Intelligent Systems’ Kouhei Maeda was similarly quiet when asked about a new Advance Wars:
“Whether or not we have plans to bring out a new entry in the Advance Wars series is a secret.”
Writing on Twitter, Renegade Kid co-founder shared the specific control schemes that Mutant Mudds Deluxe. You’ll be able to play with the GamePad, Wiimote (or Wii Remote Plus), or Wii U Pro Controller. That should be enough to suit your gaming needs!
Many have asked for controller specifics: Mutant Mudds Deluxe supports GamePad, Wii Remote/Wii Remote Plus, and Wii U Pro Controller.

Nintendo has a deal in place with SEGA for three Sonic titles. Two have been revealed thus far: Sonic Lost World and Mario & Sonic at the Sochi 2014 Olympic Winter Games. These games, along with a third unannounced project, are allegedly launching this year.
In a press release covering the recent Sonic Lost World news, Nintendo of Germany stated:
“Today, they (Sega) revealed further details of the second of three titles, which the two companies will release exclusively on Wii U and 3DS. All three games will be released this year.”
I’m having a difficult time believing this. Mario & Sonic seems like a game suited for 2014, and we have yet to see the third Sonic game. Stranger things have happened, though!

This picture is how I feel about our podcast.
It’s a long one, but a good one for you this week! Some pointed discussions during “what we played” start us off, and we continue onwards with a silly news section (with Laura trying her hand at some news!), a fantastic discussion of Sonic Lost World, and a truly meaty talk about The Starship Damrey for the book club. Good stuff all around, complete with listener mail to boot.
This Week’s Podcast Crew: Austin, Jack, and Laura

Nintendo won’t be holding a large-scale media briefing at this year’s E3, but press conferences have been an important part of the company’s past. And with E3 2013 right around the corner, I thought it’d be a great time to revisit some of their events – starting with E3 2001.
Nintendo’s E3 2001 conference was quite interesting. It was Nintendo’s big display of the GameCube: Smash Bros. was announced (and received a fantastic reaction!). Luigi’s Mansion and Pikmin were shown for the first time, too. We got a first look at the GameCube controllers, game disc, and even learned when the system would be launching around the world.
I’ve tried to incorporate some randomness/humor in our previous two videos. This time around, there’s no funny business. Watch it and let me know what you think! More E3 videos to come.
