The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild marks the end for Wii U – at least from a games standpoint. Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime told Polygon last week what we all expected, which is that no other titles are in development.

However, Reggie did say that Wii U games will still be sold at retail as well as on the eShop. Additionally, online services will not be shutting down anytime soon.

According to Reggie:

Playtonic issued a new Yooka-Laylee trailer showing off eight multiplayer games included in the game. We’ve posted the video below.

This week’s North American Nintendo Downloads are as follows:

Wii U Download

Koi DX – $9.99
Snowball – $3.00
Toby: The Secret Mine – $9.99

Wii U Virtual Console

Star Fox 64 – $9.99

Vice has a pretty big interview up with Zelda producer Eiji Aonuma about Breath of the Wild. Topics include fan feedback, voice acting, where it sits in the timeline, and more.
