The Voice is set to release on Wii at the end of next week – that’s right, Wii rather than Wii U. We’ve posted the official launch trailer below.
Nintendo announced today that Beat the Beat: Rhythm Paradise (known as Rhythm Heaven Fever in North America) will be released as a Wii download on Wii U in Europe next week, on November 24th. One of the last first party games to be released on the Wii in 2012, this game flew under many people’s radars back when it first came out. Are you planning on picking it up next week?
The Pokemon Company has already shipped over 10 million copies of the games between the two versions. This will be the biggest initial shipment for 3DS games. Hopefully it means that there’s no shortage of copies for fans hoping to get the physical version.
Banadi Namco released a new commercial for the Japanese 3DS game Kamen Rider: Rider Revolution. Have a look at it below.
We recently got a glimpse at the Japanese Poochy & Yoshi’s Woolly World boxart. Now thanks to Amazon, the North American version is available. Check it out above.
To promote Miitomo’s major update, Nintendo has brought back the various collaboration items based on The Legend of Zelda. Users can acquire items in Miitomo Drop and the Miitomo Shop. Additionally, the My Nintendo rewards are back up. The Zelda items will disappear again early on December 7.
It’s tough to forget the situation surrounding Project CARS on Wii U. After this version of the game was talked up by Slightly Mad Studios, it ran into several delays and eventual cancellation.
The developer eventually said last year that Project CARS was “simply too much for the Wii U.” We also heard that Slightly Mad Studios was “awaiting an announcement from Nintendo on new hardware”, which we now know is Switch. Unfortunately, a Nintendo version is still looking unlikely – at least for the time being.
The official Project CARS Twitter account posted the following earlier today:
@AwesomePlatter Currently there are no plans for a Nintendo Switch version of Project CARS, sorry.
