Too bad you don't buy the game and get it on the Wii U and 3DS at the same time. I'd be all over that.
The Super Luigi U DLC for New Super Mario Bros. U is being released as a digital download for the game on June 20 in both North America and Europe. However, it's also coming to retail as a packaged standalone. It'll be available August 25 in North America, and July 26 in Europe. The DLC will be priced at $19.99, while the standalone is $29.99. You won't need NSMB U to play the packaged game.
This morning's Nintendo Direct also revealed that Nabbit, a little critter who you chased in the first game, is a playable character in the new content. He'll be available in multiplayer games as an easier alternative to Luigi and the Toads. He won't take damage when he touches enemies, but to balance that he won't be able to use power-ups.
Super Luigi U makes changes to NSMB U's campaign to make every course "all-new" - it's essentially a new Luigi campaign.
Nintendo has revealed that Wonderful 101 will land on the Wii U on September 15 in North America and on August 23 in Europe. Coming from Platinum Games, Wonderful 101 sees players wielding ordinary citizens as weapons. It's as nutty as it sounds.
In a "one more thing" moment on the latest Nintendo Direct, Big N president Reggie Fils-aime announced a special partnership with Best Buy. During the week of E3, the big box electronics store will be hosting playable demos of unreleased Wii U games. Presumably, these will be the games that Nintendo is showing off during the industry's annual trade show, but Fils-aime did not reveal specific titles.
The week of E3 begins June 9.
Sega and Nintendo have entered into a "worldwide partnership" on Sonic games, and the first fruit borne from is Sonic: Lost World. It's coming to Wii U and 3DS, and there'll be more news on it prior to E3.
Nintendo president Satoru Iwata said on this morning's Nintendo Direct, "Sonic: Lost World is a brand new action-adventure platforming game that will launch exclusively on Wii U and Nintendo 3DS."

A new platforming side scrolling hopefully?? That would be epic!

Sonic exclusive to Nintendo is huge / weird. No mention of who is developing it... I'm hoping SEGA's Sonic Colors team working in conjunction with some peeps at Nintendo.
@Duck - We have one more Nintendo Direct before E3, so it's possible it could be shown there. If not there, then definitely at the pre-E3 presser.

Yeah, that is weird. Didn't think I'd ever see a sonic title exclusive to a Nintendo system...

Gonna get that Luigi Wii U game on disc.
One Electronic Arts developer has taken to Twitter to sound off on the struggling Wii U. As spotted by IGN, EA senior software engineer and architect Bob Summerwill did not hold back when expressing his feelings for the platform.
"The Wii U is crap," Summerwill said, before deleting that tweet and all others. "Less powerful than an Xbox 360. Poor online/store. Weird tablet. Nintendo are walking dead at this point."
"Sony, MS, Apple, Google all following the same playbook," he added. "Standard, powerful, hardware, with focus on software and services."
Summerwill suggested that Nintendo should have exited the hardware business and instead shopped around its major titles to Microsoft and Sony.
"Nintendo are still operating like it's 1990," he said. "They should have 'done a Sega' and offered Mario/Zelda as PS4/Durango exclusives. Instead they make this awful console. Just stop it! Just make great games!"
Summerwill has worked at EA in a number of technical roles since 1999.
His comments came a day after EA confirmed that after releasing four games for Wii U, the publisher has no new titles in development for the system. By comparison EA supported the original Wii throughout its lifespan with 78 total games

EA are a bunch of ****** bags. Apparently they tried making a deal to have origin be the main store on the Wii U but nintendo declined the offer. There for pissing off EA. Now they act like little whiny *** holes. Mario and Zelda should never touch the PS4 or the new xbox. It just wouldn't feel right.
The stats though are better than an Xbox 360, I'm guessing they just don't want to spend the time to put their engine on Wii U.
Getting out of the console business would be a bad decision I think even if the Wii U never does well, since that could mean not having an opportunity to go back to it in the future.

It figures there was something like this going on. I would love for EA to shudder their doors someday.

EA and Nintendo have never been friendly. I'd be more concerned if Ubisoft jumped ship.
Looks like Mario Kart and Smash Bros will be discussed at the next nintendo direct! as well as more games https://shoryuken.com/2013/05/19/ne...nned-for-next-nintendo-direct-before-e3-2013/

So when do we call time on this system? After Christmas? After they release Smash Brothers?
I'm seriously asking.

This may be the first Nintendo console that doesn't survive long enough to see an original Legend of Zelda game released for it. It's the first Nintendo console I haven't purchased, and I have a Virtual Boy!
