Shin’en is probably best known for its contributions in the shoot ’em up space thanks to its work on the Iridion, Nanostray, and Nano Assault games. But the studio also has experience in the racing genre having created FAST – Racing League for WiiWare.
Some fans have wondered about the possibility of Shin’en developing a new F-Zero for Wii U based on the company’s pedigree as a Nintendo developer and efforts on FAST. If Nintendo were to approach Shin’en about creating a new entry in the classic racing series, however, the studio would likely decline. That’s because they “feel like having first to achieve our own legendary games.”

@MichaelTrain77 We would appreciate a lot their trust in us but would most likely decline.

Capcom announced Ultra Street Fighter IV this past weekend. It brings along five new playable characters, six new stages, balancing updates, and more.
Unfortunately, it doesn’t seem as though the Wii U will be getting in on the fighting action. Street Fighter executive producer Yoshinori Ono wrote on Twitter yesterday that there aren’t any plans to bring the game to Nintendo’s home console.
He said:
so sry, we don't have plan for Wii U now… RT @FrostySphincter: No Wii U? That's a shame 🙁
