Why isn't this title coming to the WiiU exactly? It seems like it would take the least amount of effort since there is a Wii version. Just add Miiverse Support and you got a game.
It would be nothing more than just keeping online servers in check and possibly just getting things ready for Mario Kart in May and for when GBA games come up so the network can hold the traffic.
@Ninjuggernaut Probably something to do with the Trading aspect.
It's cool though, we might see a Fire Red and Leaf Green Re-Release.
Or actual Red and Blue since Pokemon Bank Exists.
I find this bit interesting considering I've seen news stories saying Dance Dance Revolution helped many obese kids get to normal levels plenty of times.
Deep Silver. Best known for The Game Dead Island. Although it's curious they say " With Wii U, the Nintendo market right now and their audience is not who we reach best." Best huh? Let's look at the Great Games Deep Silver has OFFERED to the Wii. Great Classics like Fritz Chess Let's Play Ballerina Let's Play Garden Professor Heinz Wolff's Gravity The Magic Roundabout Secret Files 2: Puritas Cordis WinterStars and last and probably the only game that got any notice from them on the Wii, Cursed Mountain. My what a STRONG LIST OF GAMES THERE Deep Silver! I'm sure WiiU owners would gladly take another "Let's Play" or "Chess" Game over something like Saints Row!
I don't think there's anything Capcom can do to bring back up their rep with Megaman. The Scars from the Legends 3 and Megaman Universe cancellations are deep.
The Truth of the Matter is this. The Wii just isn't as interesting as the PS3 or 360, not to mention the Motion Controls aren't exactly what people want either. I'm not saying they're bad, Zelda's Motion Controls are actually pretty well done and it's pretty impressive, but I talk to people about Games on the Wii and they're just like "It's not for me." or something like that. It's that "Nintendo is for Kids" Mentality. What Nintendo needs to do is to cut that Myth into pieces, which means opening up more space for the File Size of Downloadable games (which it seems like what they're doing for WiiU and 3DS), Make games with a more Traditional Controller Layout (Classic Controller and WiiU Controller) and get games that these gamers want to play, like Assassin's Creed, Dead Space, Red Dead Redemption, etc....Not to mention they need to up things to an HD Resolution because apparently we have a lot of Graphic Crazies Out there now that think Resolution is end all be all. Another thing that I think is what went wrong with Zelda Skyward Sword is the Linearity of the Game. They should have made the game a bit more open.

Re: Animal Crossing Content Is Coming To Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate
I'm actually kind of happy to see more Animal Crossing cross overs.
From Smash, to Kart, to now Monster Hunter, it's like Animal Crossing is one of Nintendo's Major games.

Re: The Club Nintendo Rewards Are In For March

Re: Extended Nintendo Network Maintenance on Wii U and 3DS Scheduled For 13th March
It would be nothing more than just keeping online servers in check and possibly just getting things ready for Mario Kart in May and for when GBA games come up so the network can hold the traffic.
Re: Nintendo Download: 6th March (North America)
another weak week.

@Daisaku36 it should, it gives us the direness that Nintendo is in.
Re: TwitchPlaysPokémon Causing Serious Problems for Streaming Service
@Ninjuggernaut Probably something to do with the Trading aspect.

Re: Injustice: Gods Among Us Ultimate Edition Isn't Coming To Wii U

Re: Nintendo Disables Swapnote's SpotPass Service Due to Online Safety Concerns
You know what would have fixed this?
An Actual Account System.
Re: Wii Karaoke U Doesn't Censor Explicit Lyrics
Since this is true it should be obvious of what destroyed SwapNote and have potentially delayed Flip Note 3D.
Here's a hint: It wasn't Language.
Re: Deus Ex: Human Revolution Director's Cut Will Cost $20 More On Wii U Than On PS3 And 360
@EdJericho actually Arkham Origins is Cheaper than PS3 and 360 copies because it doesn't have the BS multiplayer.
