The image above comes from Nintendo’s latest financial results materials. We posted it a few hours ago. One thing did slip over our heads, however: Need for Speed: Most Wanted in the Wii U’s third-party launch lineup list.
Oddly enough, the game is only listed for Europe. We’re also unsure when the game will be launching.
But at least this pretty much confirms things!
Nintendo will indeed be publishing Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate in Europe, and probably Australia as well. The news was first hinted at through a rating from the OFLC.
Nintendo UK tweeted earlier today:
“Prepare to hunt! We’ll be distributing Capcom’s #MonsterHunter 3 Ultimate for Nintendo #3DS and #WiiU by March 2013”
