Oh: Nintendo’s first smartphone game is ‘Miitomo’
Ah! So I’m glad I can continue on my merry way of having no fucks to give re: Nintendo’s smartphone presence.
‘Pikmin 4’ is in development, and “very close to completion” according to Miyamoto
So Shigeru Miyamoto just dropped in an interview that Pikmin 4 is almost close to completion. Which was a surprise to Pretty Much Everyone, since no one even knew it was in development. Hey. Neat. Cool. But like, could we get that fucking Zelda that we were promised? Oh, no? It’s being totally pushed back slowly onto the next Nintendo system? Great.
‘The Legend of Zelda’ for Wii U isn’t listed in Nintendo’s 2016 Release Calendar
Son of a bitch. Like, the game that I’m sweating for the Wii U isn’t going to hit the system. Is it? It isn’t. I can sense it. Nintendo’s already run public post-mortems on the console and shit. And now Legend of LinkLinkZeldaTime Wii U ain’t on the calendar for next year. Which means, as far as my detective skills tell me, that the title is actually going to drop for the Nintendo NX or whatever.
Nintendo shutting down Wii U TVii next month. What’s a Wii U TVii?
Perhaps my incredulous response to this report explains everything. ‘Cause despite having a Wii U, its Wii U TVii service is a mystery to me. A mystery that shall be disappearing next month.
Report: Nintendo NX console release planned for July 2016
Well. I guess I’m feeling like a serious dummy for throwing down bucks on the Wii U last holiday season.
Of course: ‘The Legend of Zelda Wii U’ delayed past 2015
…you, you didn’t think Uncharted 4 was going to be able the only exclusive title you coveted that would be pushed into 2016 or beyond, did you?
Nintendo developing mobile games! with DeNA, also tease new hardware
Nintendo is partnering with DeNA to develop mobile games. The fuck: it ain’t going to be porting nothing, just creating new content. They also teased new hardware, codenamed “NX.” The fuck: I just bought a fucking Wii U!
Nintendo has sold 9.2 million Wii U units since 2012
Is the Wii U going to be a success? Like, a burn-money-on-Omnidimensional-pan-genital’d strippers success? If the latest financials are any indication: no.
Tuesday Afternoon Commute: chicken&meat
Hello, friends! And welcome again to a late edition of Monday Morning (Tuesday Afternoon) Commute. What can I say? Other than I thought I was going to have more time during my break than is actually proving true. However, in addition to being busier than expect, I’ve been spending my time with friends and family. Chemically altered and smiling through the evenings in the company of the Great and Inspiring familiars. Anyways — here’s what I’m up to this week. Share your own list of the Shit Being Enjoyed, Food Being Consumed, and Other Miscellany across the next seven days.
