Bandai Namco has issued an official response regarding Project CARS’ delay on Wii U.
We learned earlier today that the racer won’t be arriving on Nintendo’s console until 2015. The PS4, Xbox One, and PC versions are still due out in November of this year.
Bandai Namco’s statement reads:
Over the past few weeks, Capcom has been highlighting creatures from Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate. The latest, Kecha Wacha, was featured in a Capcom-Unity blog post today.
You can find screenshots and art of Kecha Wacha above. Check out some excerpts from the post below and find the full thing here.
Moon Chronicles is only on 3DS at the moment. But perhaps that could change with a Kickstarter campaign.
While the studio was burned by its Kickstarter efforts for Cult County, Renegade Kid co-founder Jools Watsham asked fans on Twitter today about potential games they’d like to see take the crowdfunding approach. This led to the idea of a Kickstarter campaign for Moon Chronicles on Wii U, which Watsham finds “interesting”.
He said on Twitter:
I'm not in a hurry to do another kickstarter, but if we did, what would you guys like to see us kickstart? Can't do Dementium. Please RT.

We have had quite a few requests for Moon Chronicles on Wii U as a kickstarter campaign. Interesting! Anyone else like this idea?

Youkai Watch 2 is expected to be a huge seller for Level-5. And based on pre-order data, that definitely seems to be the case.
Media Create reveals that pre-orders for Youkai Watch 2 were initially at 786,000 units before climbing to 814,000 copies. That number could have been even higher given continued inquiries from consumers, but the game sold out before launch and retailers closed reservations.
Media Create anticipates that Youkai Watch 2 will be Japan’s first million-seller of 2014.
Dragon Quest X started out as a Wii-only title, but that wasn’t always the plan. Series creator Yuji Horii mentioned during today’s Japanese Nintendo Direct that he’s been wanting to bring the MMORPG to the 3DS since the game’s earlier days of development.
By making Dragon Quest X for 3DS, Square Enix hopes to make the game more comfortable to play and attract new users. The handheld version of the game will have content up to the Ver. 2 major update.
Cave Story 3D is officially heading to the 3DS eShop, Nicalis has confirmed. It will be available in both North America and Europe later this year.

Nicalis’ Tyrone Rodriguez shared today’s news on Miiverse:
Yuichiro Takeda, one of the major writers on Xenoblade, has re-tweeted the Japanese announcement about the Super Smash Bros. character reveal coming on Monday. Perhaps it’s a sign that Shulk will be revealed as the latest roster addition? We’ll just have to wait and see.
