Yoshi, the loveable egg-throwing dinosaur who hasn’t had a console title since 1998 is getting his own game right at home on the Wii U! Developed by the team behind Kirby’s Epic Yarn and the director of Yoshi’s Story, this new title takes the art style of Epic Yarn and mixes it with classic Yoshi gameplay. This title will not only show off the graphics of the Wii U, but also it’s hardware capability.

Platinum Games fans have reason to be excited as Nintendo showed off a brand new trailer for the upcoming mass hero action game Wonderful 101 which featured English voice-work as well as new gameplay footage.

The trailer which you can see below focuses on a number of the heroes that players will control throughout the game. It is very evident by the trailer that this game is somewhat of a spiritual successor of Viewtiful Joe, especially when you consider the uncanny appearances of the heroes and general superhero theme. Not to mention Hideki Kamiya the man behind Viewtiful Joe is working on this title.

In tonights Nintendo Direct Conference, Iwata-san has announced a new smartphone app that allows users to access the Mii Universe using their smartphones. While no specifics have been announced for the service, it is something that Nintendo will be looking into including to their repertoire in the future.

We can only speculate as to why this is a good idea but I feel that this is Nintendo’s way of keeping people connected across many different mediums, as is their intent with this system. What do you think of this new app from Nintendo? Is this their first entry into the Phone marketplace?

In tonights Nintendo Direct conference held online, Nintendo’s Iwata-san has announced that their will be a brand-new Action based Super Mario game coming for the Wii U console. This game is being designed by the Mario Galaxy and Mario Galaxy 2 team so it should be an incredibly dun game to play.

Other than that, not much info has been posted on the game, but we can be sure to expect more news from Nintendo during the coming months. We will probably get a closer look at the title come time for E3.

What do you think of this? Too much Mario? Let us know in the comments below.

The trailer which can be seen below featured a number of different characters from both titles but did not show any actual gameplay footage instead serving as little more than a tease to fans of both franchises.

Be sure to check out the Shin Megami Tensei x Fire Emblem trailer below and let us know what you think in the comments section. Are you excited for this title?

The Legend of Zelda Glorious HD Zelda Announced

At tonights Nintendo Direct conference held on the internet, Iwata-san had a small, but detailed look on an upcoming Zelda title for the Wii U. This will be a new Zelda game that is apparently going to be designed to change up the way the Zelda experience is handled.

This is not surprising since the theme for this new Zelda game is “Rethink the conventions of Zelda”. This is, I think, a great convention for a New Zelda title to have as the formula has pretty much been beaten to death at this point (even if I still love it, I can see why some players are getting annoyed). It will be interesting to see where the team takes this new concept. I believe we can expect some early promo for this game at around E3.
