LEGO City: Undercover has a massive amount of content. Along with a huge world and tons of items to collect, the game also packs in 290 costumes. That should make up for the lack of different playable characters that are traditionally included in LEGO titles.
Speaking with ONM, executive producer Loz Doyle said that his team added “more than we had planned to include.” He also commented on the varied gameplay featured in LEGO City:
“There is a huge variety of gameplay outside of the story. In fact there’s more than we had planned to include. There’s so much more outside of the story. As a robber you can steal cars and try to outrun the police, take part in vehicle and free-running time trials, be a limousine driver, catch renegade aliens, rescue cats, put out fires… The list goes on.”
The following Rock Band Music Store songs will be made available on February 5:
- Avenged Sevenfold – “So Far Away” – keyboard support
- Great White – “Once Bitten Twice Shy” – keyboard support
- Iron Maiden – “The Wicker Man” – keyboard support, Pro Guitar and Pro Bass expansions available for 100 Wii Points
- Queen – “Death on Two Legs” – keyboard support, previously released on Wii
Each song can be purchased for 200 Wii Points.

Two Tribes pushed back Toki Tori 2 late last year, just days before the game was set to launch on the Wii U eShop. In a blog post today, the developer explained the reasoning for its decision to delay the game.
Collin van Ginkel, one of the developers, noted how he started to think of a new puzzle idea in early December. He also began to consider why Two Tribes would be submitting Toki Tori 2 to Nintendo in just a couple of days – why the team was pushing for a release before Christmas, why everyone was putting so much pressure on themselves, and more.
The chances of Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance landing on Wii U aren’t high, but there is a small glimmer of hope for the future.
When asked about want it would take to get the game on Wii U, Platinum Games’ Jean Kellams said Konami would need to see demand from fans. The publisher would also have to approach Platinum before anything is set in motion.
Kellams wrote on Twitter:
@fillytase @konami would have to see demand for it and bring us the request to port.

So we’re not exactly sure what’s going on in the lengthy Animal Crossing: New Leaf Nintendo Direct below. But we do get to see more of the game, at least! I imagine we’ll be receiving details about what was discussed later today.
Brownie Brown has undergone a restructure and has changed its name. Going forward, the company will be known as “1-UP Studio”. It’s currently unclear how the restructure will impact 1-UP’s relationship with Nintendo.
The developer’s lineup of past works include Magical Starsign, Blue Dragon Plus, and Heroes of Mana for DS. 1-UP also recently completed its 3DS game Fantasy Life for Level-5.
