Remember last holiday season when Nintendo released a limited-run pink and white 3DS XL? Well, it sold out relatively quickly and may people were upset that they couldn’t get their hands on one in time. So what does the big N do? They’ve decided to bring it back, and now you can purchase the system from Gamestop and other stores “coast to coast” starting this week!
For the first time, Renegade Kid will be supporting a Nintendo console. And there’s good reason: co-founder Jools Watsham sees a bright future ahead for Wii U.
Sharing his thoughts on the system, Watsham said:
“I am certain the Wii U will have an excellent future. The writing is on the wall. It is an excellent console. Nintendo has some amazing titles lined up for future releases. Even though Q1 2013 may have had some issues, I predict that the 2013 holiday season will be huge for the Wii U. Nintendo’s campaign for the Wii U has only just begun.”
Along with Wii U, Renegade Kid will continue to create games for the 3DS eShop. Mutant Mudds 2 has already been confirmed for the platform, but we’ll probably be forced to wait until 2014 before its arrival.
According to Watsham:
“We have a lot of projects going on right now, and Mutant Mudds 2 is one of them. But, it’s going to be a while before we can share any more information on it. Due to our busy schedule, it is looking like Mudds 2 will be a 2014 release.”
Toki Tori 2 developer Two Tribes has confirmed some of the game’s features on Wii U. Off-TV play and the previously announced “Tokidex Camera” will both be supported.
However, Toki Tori 2’s level editor won’t be ready for launch. This will be added to the game in the future. Two Tribes is also thinking about including Miiverse support.
Two Tribes wrote in a blog post today:
Straight Right, the team behind Mass Effect 3 on Wii U, is porting a “big” game set “in a well known franchise” to Wii U for Square Enix. What might that project be?
Square Enix and Straight Right haven’t haven’t said anything since that discovery was made, but news could be coming soon.
Last week, a fan asked the studio on Twitter if they could provide any hints about its mystery Wii U title. Straight Right didn’t budge, but hinted that it may have an update after DICE – which wrapped up a few days ago.
@wavetradeinc We’d love to give out hints, but we’ll be a little busy at DICE this week. Maybe afterwards we’ll have some news. #dicesummit

Giants Software’s Marc Schwegler of Farming Simulator fame feels that the Wii U has a lot of untapped potential. Schwegler told NowGamer that if this potential is explored, Nintendo’s newest console “could be more popular than Wii”.
Schwegler said:
“I think it should do as well as the Wii, maybe even better. It’s difficult to say, it’s really depending on what games they will add that really use the extra device you get with it. There’s a lot of potential that’s not tapped yet, if it is and if it will be then I think it could be more popular than the Wii because it’s something more. Wii motion was okay, everybody copied it but it’s done, people are returning to regular controllers because it’s easier to play and you have much more options. A touch device, you could put a whole set of controls on there.”
