Did Blockbuster Leak Wii U Launch Titles in the UK?
The Blockbuster UK Outlets seem to have listed a series of Wii U launch titles in their Point of Sale systems. There are 25 titles in all. If this is a legitimate list, what are your thoughts? Could this list just be filler to set the place setting in their system? Just in case you cannot read the screen shots above, i have included the list below:
Could this be the Wii U controller dock?
A Neogaf user recently posted a patent drawing that shows what appears to be a charging dock for the Wii U controller. Judging from the patent, the design would work in the same fashion as the Nintendo 3DS charging dock. In addition, the design of the Wii U controller looks unchanged from the version we were introduced to at E3 2011. No surprise, but Nintendo could easily make some alterations. So...

Attempting to Explain the Trade from Black and White to Black 2 and White 2
As with every main-series Pokémon game, Black 2 and White 2 will undoubtedly feature the ability to trade Pokémon with their previous installments. However, this time around, it’ll be interesting to see exactly how the games justify the act of the trade. Seeing as the games belong to the same generation of games (the fifth), moving Pokémon from game to game will surely be done through simple...
Nintendo’s guide to getting it right in the digital space
So Nintendo’s numbers are down annually for the first time in three decades. The 3DS is selling well, but profits aren’t what Nintendo was expecting due to last year’s price cut. Does this all mean that Nintendo is behind the times and is doomed to a fate similar to SEGA? Not likely. Nintendo has an ace up its sleeve in the fight to stay relevant that to other company in the business it talking ab...
Tetsuya Nomura: New Kingdom Hearts To Be Announced Soon
Fans of the Kingdom Hearts series have many questions. Some have been answered, many are still lingering. The series seems to have more twists and turns than a corn maze that was created by a drunk farmer. As the series progresses we dive deeper into the intertwining lives of the characters. Nomura was featured in an interview about the series in the Kingdom Hearts 3D Ultimania guide book recent...
How I’d love to see Nintendo exploit iOS
Nintendo faithful, please don’t take offense at what I’m about to say. I’m not suggesting for one moment that Nintendo get out of the hardware business or port its most famous characters to iOS. I’m a card-carrying 3DS fanatic, and I’ll be first in line for Wii U. But I also own an iPhone, and, here’s what drives me crazy: thinking about the bazillion casual ph...
Nintendo Not Revealing Wii U Price at E3
Nintendo has confirmed that they although they will be showing off the final hardware configuration of the Wii U at E3, they will not be revealing the price. Some analysts believe that the Wii U cannot sell for more than $250.00 to be successful, while others have stated that launch price will be no less that $300.00. regardless of the price, I feel that this is a smart move on Nintendo’s ...
Fabulous Folders Follow in Fresh Firmware’s Wake…in 3D!
Alliteration aside, for those who are unaware, the 3DS’s latest firmware update brought with it an exciting addition (at least for me) – folders! This is the first time in Nintendo’s history that the option to sort software into individual folders has been made available to the players, and I must say that it’s about bloody time the 3DS adopted this feature. With so many ne...

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=19g5PrjR7To&hd=1[/youtube] Watch while you can, this just-leaked trailer for Rayman Legends shows off some not yet ready for primetime footage of the game in action running on Wii U. Since the leak earlier today, Ubisoft has since indeed confirmed that the video was the real deal, but has also gone as far to say that the video was “intended as a purely i...
Miyamoto: 3DS Launch Needed More Mario
Shigeru Miyamoto has stated, in a recent interview, that Nintendo did not properly advertise the unique features of the 3DS. Features such as Augmented Reality and other installed apps should have received more focus. He also stated that he was disappointed with the launch line up. What would have made the line up better? More Mario Titles, of course! It does seem that Nintendo’s number o...
Review: Customize your own puzzler in Block Factory

Block Factory, a new $3.99 eShop download, has arrived to drop some fun customization into the puzzle block genre. It probably won̵...
