AckkStudios provided another release window update for YIIK today. When we last heard about the game, it was planned for launch between December and late February. We can now count on seeing it sometime between February and March.

AckkStudios wrote in a Tumblr update:

“We estimate we’re about 96% complete with the game, and believe that we can bring it to you between February and March!

Our original plan was to release it this month, however in an effort to avoid having the console versions trailing a few months behind the Steam release, we’ve decided to take time and try and release them on the same day, or within weeks.”

Digital Foundry’s latest technical analysis focuses on FAST Racing Neo, Shin’en’s just-released racer on the Wii U eShop.

Overall, the studio managed to put out a fantastic technical showpiece. FAST Racing Neo usually manages to maintain 60 frames per second with only small dips on a few tracks. The only downside stems from a compromise in rendering resolution. But thanks to the use of some great techniques and clever programming, Wii U owners now have an “impressive looking racer” which features “a blistering frame-rate and beautiful visual design.”

Take a look at the video for a look at Digital Foundry’s analysis. You can also find a more in-depth article here.
