What would Yoshi’s Island look like in first-person? YouTube user “Bestvegeta” may have the answer! Bestvegeta recently took the first level in Yoshi’s Island and recreated it with a first-person perspective. Take a look below.
In the latest issue of Gamesource, Deck13’s creative director Jan Klose was asked about the possibility of bringing Lords of the Fallen to Wii U.
The chances of that happening aren’t very high, as Klose stated that the team probably won’t be doing a Wii U port. Such a move would ultimately be a publisher decision.
Klose’s said:
Right now I don’t think that we are going to do a Wii U port of the project, even though we love Nintendo devices. But in the end this is a decision of the publisher, whether they think supporting the Wii U is reasonable for their sales or not.
Thanks to mahdi for the tip.

Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and 3DS feature stages from previous games in the franchise. There are some stages from Brawl, Melee, and even the original release.
In his latest “Smash Bros. Diaries” entry included in this month’s issue of Game Informer, director Masahiro Sakurai addressed a question about how the team decided on which stages to bring back.
There are several factors that came in to play. Sakurai mentioned “the popularity of the stage, whether or not it’s a match for the 3DS screen, and whether or not two stages from the same setting are getting ported” were all considered.
Below are Sakurai’s full comments:
BeautiFun Games announced earlier this month that Nihilumbra is coming to the PlayStation Vita on January 27. But what about the Wii U version?
We asked BeautiFun about Nihilumbra’s status on Wii U, and were told that the plan is to release it this winter. While it’s still on track, the game will arrive slightly later due to an audio engine bug that needs fixing. BeautiFun is working hard with Nintendo and Unity to address the issue.
This week, Scott dives into our Game of the Month with a video about each character in the original WarioWare. Fascinatingly, he tries to pin down the style of each one and their microgames, which lead me to learn that Dr. Crygor’s are definitely my favorite. Nothing can beat that photorealism…
Here’s a question though: Which style of minigame suits you best, and which character’s games do you like the most? Did you ever really notice a difference in style between all the characters?
James Montagna, a designer and director over at WayForward, has teased a new game for Wii U. This appears to be an independent project as opposed to a new game coming directly from the studio.
Montagna wrote on Twitter today:
So, I'm about to drop some news on y'all about one of the game projects I've been making in my spare time
