A new Assassin’s Creed game is on the way. This much we know. It’ll feature a brand new hero, is set in a new time period, and is being made by a new team.
Three different staffers at Ubisoft recently included Assassin’s Creed 4 on their LinkedIn profiles. One employee from Ubisoft Annecy listed the game for a 2013 launch. All three profiles have since been changed, but snapshots of each in their original state can be found above.
The Wii Mini is indeed coming to Europe. After accidentally leaking the news through its website, Nintendo has confirmed that the console will be available in the territory on March 22.
New Nintendo Selects titles are also on the way. For the Wii Mini’s launch, Mario Party 8, Wii Sports Resort, Mario Power Tennis, and Super Paper Mario will be added to the lineup.
The official announement regarding the European release of Wii Mini and new Nintendo Selects games are posted below.
If you own Twilight Princess, you will most likely want to try this glitch out. It’s easily the most fruitful one I’ve done so far with Eggbusters, and one that has more possibilities than I could explore even in ten episodes!

This podcast brought to you by the wonderful Mighty Switch Force! Hyper Drive Edition, now available on the Wii U eShop for $4.99! But that’s just a sale so it might only be temporary. Also we didn’t get paid to say any of this– we just like the game. Click the image for a soundtrack sample!
Edit: Wow, the audio quality of this podcast was incredible! We’ll definitely keep this new mic setup.
Hey, we made it thirty weeks without missing an episode! That makes this the longest running weekly feature I’ve ever done for NintendoEverything, which I think is quite an achievement. Another good show this week with news, what we played, some nice discussions about Fire Emblem and “second tier” Nintendo games, and a list of the “second tier” Nintendo franchises you all personally consider “first tier”.

Looking for an update on Beyond Good & Evil 2? You won’t get one from Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot.
Guillemot was asked to share a comment about the long-awaited title, but refused to do so. That’s because he feels “we have to have something new” the next time Ubisoft talks about the game.
Guillemot said:
“I don’t give comments anymore on BG&E2, because I think … the next time next time we communicate we have to have something new.”
Guillemot did offer one small statement. He told Kotaku: “It’s coming.” Suuuuure…
