Shin’en announced FAST Racing Neo towards the end of last year, but we never received any concrete details about the game. So when can fans expect actual information?
According to Shin’en, details will be shared after the studio unveils its second new Wii U title. Based on a previous tease, that should be happening soon.
@ProchenoS We currently prepare our 2nd Wii U game announcement. After that we will release more details to FAST RN.

Shin’en not too interested in DLC
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 3 Comments
Chances are that you won’t be seeing DLC in any of Shin’en’s games. That’s because, as the company said on Twitter recently, the team doesn’t “plan for DLC”. Instead, Shin’en prefers to “release a 100% complete game for a fair price.”
Shin’en’s comments in full are as follows:
@Megadrive08 We don't plan for DLC. We rather want to release a 100% complete game for a fair price.

Shin’en said to be revealing another new Wii U game within next few weeks
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 1 Comment
Shin’en is busy working on FAST Racing Neo for the Wii U eShop. Additionally, the studio has a second new project that will be announced in the very near future.
Art director Martin Sauter said on his website that the mysterious game “should get revealed in the next few weeks”. No further information was provided.
Sauter also left the following tease about FAST Racing Neo:
I can’t post too many information at the moment, but I can cconfirm, that this will not be a simple port or remake of the Wii version. It will be a standalone, full new product and we try it to create the most exciting eShop game in 2014.
Thanks to WALEED for the tip.
