The Villager’s alternate colors were showcased today and they’re not what we were expecting:
You can choose to play as the girl villager too!! How lovely.
Nintendo is starting to send out a new StreetPass Mii Plaza visitor to 3DS owners. It’s none other than Reggie “Fils-a-Mech” (FILSAMECH), who reminds fans about Nintendo’s upcoming E3 Digital Event on June 10.
Reggie Fils-a-Mech is none other than Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime of course, but, well… it’s complicated. Just watch Nintendo’s E3 2014 announcement video and all should become clear!
Ubisoft support for Nintendo platforms appears to be in steep decline. In its latest financial report for example, the company makes mention of Wii U only once, and that’s for Child of Light – a game already available. On 3DS, Ubisoft hasn’t had a major release in quite a long time.
In the previous financial year, Wii U accounted for only 3 percent of Ubisoft’s overall sales. 3DS was even worse – in large part due to a lack of games – coming in at 0 percent. Wii was the only platform to make a decent dent having contributed 11 percent.
What kind of Nintendo support can we expect from Ubisoft in the future? Well, Watch Dogs is still coming to Wii U. A new Just Dance will likely be made for both Wii U and Wii as well. Aside from these games though, nothing appears to be on the horizon sadly.
In just a few days, the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection service will be discontinued. This affects a whole slew of games – see a listing of first-party releases here.
Even though the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection is reaching its end, fans have put together an alternative method of playing some titles online. The “Wiimmfi” essentially patches the server addresses in the game to play on custom servers once May 20th has passed.
There’s lots more information about the project here.
Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot said during a financial call held earlier today that the company hopes to sell more than 6.3 million copies of Watch Dogs. Given how the first Assassin’s Creed performed, Ubisoft hopes its new open-world game can find similar success.
The publisher announced earlier today that Watch Dogs is the most pre-ordered new IP in Ubisoft’s history.
Amazon UK has put up a listing for the “Basic Just Dance and Wii Party U Pack with Mario Kart 8”.
The standard Basic Just Dance & Wii Party U Pack has been around for quite awhile, and can be bought for £199.99. It includes Just Dance 2014, Wii Party U, Nintendo Land, and a Wii Remote Plus.
Amazon’s newest product seems to sweeten the deal by adding in Mario Kart 8. That means you’d be receiving a total of four games with the Wii U purchase. A price isn’t mentioned, nor is there a release date.
