The Canadian-exclusive Wii Mini console will not contain an SD card slot. This may not seem like too big of a deal, but its disappearance means that you won’t be able to transfer save data. You can’t move saves from a standard Wii to the Wii Mini, and vice versa.
In related news, Nintendo of Canada’s Matt Ryan commented on the difference between the Wii Mini and Wii U markets:
“… they are two very different products for a different type of player. It really depends on the experience that players want and their preferred investment in their gaming console. If a player just wants to play Wii games, Wii mini is a great choice at a great price. If the player wants more from their system, Wii U is the latest innovation of fun from Nintendo.”

The “Here’s a Podcast” mascot, ladies and gentlemen!
News, what we played, and the complaint corner all make their regular returns. On top of that, we discuss ZombiU vs. Resident Evil Remake, whether Wii U games have to use the Gamepad in novel ways (or if they can just be “regular” games), and then list our top four weirdest business decisions by Nintendo.
Despite a myriad of technical issues, I’d be willing to bet that this show is out best so far! There was no one thing in particular that made it amazing, but energetic discussions (and some really hilarious anecdotes!) made this one a podcast for the record books! Enjoy!

Zero Escape: Virtue’s Last Reward scenario writer Koutaro Uchikoshi has been talking about a sequel for awhile now. Even after all of these months, Uchikoshi is still chatting up a storm about a new entry in the series.
Uchikoshi tweeted the following over the past few days:
@suburbanwhitekd Yes. Junpei will appear as a participant in the next game. 🙂

@syberiawinx I also know everybody likes Snake. Dio? I think he will appear in the next too. Although he isn’t the man who you know. 🙂

@wojf The mystery about Radical-6 will be revealed in the 3rd. plz look forward to it! 🙂

The only downside? Uchikoshi hinted that it could be awhile before we see a new Zero Escape.
On November 29, Square Enix registered the domain names AllTheBravest.com and AllTheBravest.net. It also filed a European Community Trademark.
Considering “Bravest” is in the name, one would hope that this is related to Bravely Default. But at this point, it almost seems silly to expect anything not known as Final Fantasy or Kingdom Hearts to be localized.
Or maybe this does have something to do with Bravely Default – except it’ll probably end up being that browser game…

Thanks to joclo for the tip.
Fractured Soul hasn’t arrived on the European or Australian eShops yet, but its release is still in the cards. The game has finally been approved for PAL regions, so it should launch in the near future. A release in mid-January is sounding likely at the moment.
The following message was posted on the Fractured Soul Facebook page yesterday:
“Some good news! Fractured Soul has finally been approved for Nintendo eShop in Europe/Australia/NZ! We don’t have a firm release date yet, but probably around mid January.”
