Online gaming site CVG is reporting that the brand new 3D Mario game for the Wii U should be releasing this October, if their sources are correct. The publication states that a number of blockbuster Wii U games will be released from summer until the end of the year, one of which is a new 3D Mario title. This does line up with what Nintendo has been hinting at in recent weeks and I fully expect a big push for the Wii U in the coming months.

Both the new Mario Kart and the 3D Mario title for Wii U will apparently be playable at this year’s E3 event in June as well as other high profile games from Nintendo. It should be interesting to see what Nintendo decides to do as they have a number of new Nintendo Directs headed our way within the next month...

The digital version of the upcoming LEGO City Undercover for Wii U requires 22GB of space, according to recent reports. 22GB of space is A LOT of space for any Wii U owners and those looking to purchase LEGO City Undercover digitally (which is what I planned on doing), may want to invest in an external hard drive.

I wanted to download this game digitally but I think that may change come Sunday. I didn’t want to purchase a external hard drive as well but we will see….

Wii U owners, how do you plan on getting this one?

According to this new EB Games release list, Watch Dogs And Rainbow 6 Patriots are headed to Wii U. Neither of these games have been officially announced by Ubisoft for Wii U so mark this one down as a rumor for now.

Take this with a grain of salt everyone but it sure would be pretty sweet if Ubisoft brought the promising-looking Watch Dogs to Nintendo’s home console.

More as it develops. Stay tuned.

What you guys think? Would you like to see Watch Dogs and Rainbow 6 Patriots on Wii U?

According to the official twitter feed for Two Tribes, gamers who were hoping for a demo of the upcoming Wii U eShop title Toki Tori 2 will be out of luck. The company has stated that there will be no demo for Toki Tori 2 because they are fully concentrating on making the game the best as it can possibly be.

I plan on getting Toki Tori 2 once its released and I am thrilled that so much seems to be going into the title. This game has all the markings of Wii U eShop gold and you can bet your bottom dollar I will be eagerly awaiting its release.

More on Toki Tori 2 as it develops.

I have noticed a trend on numerous websites stating that the Wii U is in need of saving and that Nintendo needs to act fast. Over and over again, I have read countless articles stating that Nintendo is pretty much dead in the water and that they need to react soon. Well my friends, I am here to say; stop The “Doom and Gloom” Wii U articles and watch 2013 unfold before we all jump to conclusions.

3 million consoles of the Nintendo Wii U have been sold from mid November to the end of December. To make things perfectly clear, the original Wii sold 3.5 million in that time frame, the PS3 sold 900,000
and the Xbox 360 sold 425,000. 3 million for a month and a half all of a sudden does’t sound all that bad after all now doesn’t it...

I just wanted to take some time out and personally wish you all a Merry Christmas. Safe Travels, have fun and get a lot of video games!

Merry Christmas Everyone!

What’s not to like about the Rabbids? They’re funny, cute and have established themselves as a key franchise for Ubisoft. Back when they made their debut on the original Wii, players were taken by surprise by a very polished and humerous mini-game collection that was very entertaining and very fun to play. Fast forward to the Wii U’s launch game in Rabbids Land and we are still treated to nearly the same title but in a less entertaining way.

How does this Wii U launch title fair? Read our Rabbids Land Review and find out.

The Rabbids are ...

Sony just announced that a new peripheral is headed to the PS3 system entitled Wonderbook. It is a AR book that allows gamers to virtually play games in their living rooms and can/will be used for games, education and many other options.

The Wonderbook looks really interesting and should be pretty sweet when it comes out.

It’s being tooted as the reinvention of the story book.
