Another day, another amiibo costume in Super Mario Maker. Check out Olimar in the image above.
IGN has posted a video showcasing several minutes of footage from Extreme Exorcism. View it below.
The Castle Game was announced nearly a year ago – August 2014. We haven’t heard about it much since, but we do know that it remains in the works.
Neptune Interactive’s Ayngaran Vamatheva reconfirmed to Toronto GameDevs that The Castle Game remains on track for Wii U. However, it’s been put on the back burner while the team focuses on the PlayStation 4 version. Vamatheva said that Neptune Interactive will likely be returning to development of the Wii U version for release in 2016.
He said:
“We’ve put a pause on it in order to get the PS4 version out. We’ll probably get back to it to release for next year. It is a fun console, especially with the second screen. I’d love to take advantage of it for our game, but it is not as straightforward as it might seem.”
Wii U’s latest firmware update is now available. Version 5.5.0 is out now in all major territories.
In North America, the Nintendo TVii icon has been removed from the Wii U menu (and home menu). Nintendo also says that “improvements to overall system stability and other minor adjustments have been made to enhance the user experience.”
We have a look at another two images of costumes featured in Super Mario Maker. The Inkling Girl is above, while Pit is below.
There are still many outfits in Super Mario Maker that we haven’t seen as of yet. I imagine plenty more will come in before the game launches next month.
Thanks to SegadoeswhatNintendon’t for the tip.
Nintendo World Report has posted 13 minutes of footage of off-screen footage from Dragon Ball Z: Extreme Butoden, which you can watch below. There’s some direct-feed sound mixed with commentary from Bandai Namco.
Yet another one of Super Mario Maker’s costumes has been found via Miiverse. This time around, we have a look at the Sonic outfit that can be used in the original Super Mario Bros. levels. Check it out above.
Nintendo has kicked off a new video feature on its YouTube page for the Super Mario Maker Facebook hackathon. The first episode, “Play + Create”, is posted below. Look for the next episode on Wednesday.
SonicStadium.org has found evidence that Sonic Classic Collection for DS was originally planned to include more games and content, as well as concept art for a Crazy Taxi 4 Pitch.
The info comes via former SEGA Studios Australia employee Brooke Luder’s portfolio, specifically an image that includes logos for Sonic Spinball, Sonic 3D Blast, and Dr. Robotnik’s Mean Bean Machine, all of which were never included in the retail game. Luder’s resume also indicates that video content was planned at one point. Check out the gallery below for more images.
Perhaps even more intriguing is concept art for a Crazy Taxi 4 pitch. No information is given on the proposed game, but the single image shows a cab driver jumping from one cab to another.
