Need for Speed Most Wanted is one of those games that has been long rumored for Wii U. Strangely, EA still hasn’t made any sort of announcement.
There’s still a strong possibility that the game is in development for Wii U, and Criterion is being cryptic about a possible version for the console.
Most Wanted producer Leanne Loombe, when asked if the title could come to Wii U, only offered the following:
“We’re not talking about Wii U at the moment.”
That’s an interesting answer. I don’t want to read into this too much, but Loombe didn’t shoot down the possibility at all. He kind of dodged the question more than anything.
Nintendo of Europe is listing two digital games for release next week. The WiiWare title Successfully Learning English Year 5 (800 points) and the 3DS download game Balloon Pop Remix (£7.20) are due out on September 27.
We should have the full listing of digital releases on Monday.
Remember that Bridgestone Wii commercial featuring Kevin Butler? It seems that he’s since been removed from the advert. Either that, or the video posted above is an alternate version.

Wii U pre-orders, at least at GameStop, are a little out of control. The retailer said today that it has been experiencing “overwhelming demand”.
GameStop has therefore ceased pre-orders of the Deluxe and Basic Sets.
A wait list has been made just for PowerUp Rewards members. Those who are are a part of the program can be sent a notice about when pre-orders will open up once again. Consumers are cautioned, however, that “enrolling does not guarantee a Wii U on or by a specified date or at a specific price.”
Take a look at the full press release below.
