If you have kids and they love any of the Marvel superheroes, I could definitely recommend this game to them. Otherwise, you can le’go of any hope that this game could be enjoyable.
Specifically concerning “Wii Sports Club,” we understand that there will be players who will play it almost every day just as they did with its predecessor, “Wii Sports,” while others will only play it when friends visit their home. We are now trying to increase the software’s sales potential by offering two different options for the people who will play it occasionally and those who will play it frequently. I do not deny the possibility that “Wii Sports Club” may become packaged software in the future. However, for the future of Wii U, we have prioritized releasing tennis and bowling by the end of this year. - Satoru Iwata Link

A portion of a Nintendo Feed interview with Zen Studios' Mel Kirk...
Nintendo Feed: Moving on to the Balance of the Force tables. They were released on pretty much all of the other platforms but no release date for the Wii U. Can you share any information with us on that?
Mel Kirk: The Balance of the Force tables will hopefully release for Wii U before the end of the year. The game is in queue right now at Nintendo, we just need to clear the approvals process.
Nintendo Feed: One of the things that was lacking in the Wii U version of Zen Pinball 2 was online multiplayer. You mentioned that was something you were looking at earlier. Can you give us any update on progress?
Mel Kirk: Yes, we are moving forward with that. We have a much improved system that we will be utilizing with the upcoming consoles and it will help bring people together with pinball. The nice thing is that we will be able to patch that in to the Wii U.

What kind of research went into preparing for the role of Edward Kenway? What did Joy Division have to do with the casting process? How tall is he? These are just a few of the things we discussed when we spoke with Assassin’s Creed IV Black Flag’s Lead Writer Darby McDevitt as well as the voice of Edward Kenway himself, Matt Ryan.
Edward is not the kind of Assassin you’re used to, as you’re likely learning if you’ve already started the game. He’s brash and selfish. He’s a dirty fighter. And he has no real desire to give up his ways to follow the Creed (much to the chagrin of other Assassins). It’s all these things that make him one of the most compelling characters in the series. Darby and Matt share their unique insights into what makes Edward so special, revealing a few exclusive tidbits along the way.
We don't want to go saying that these bundles have already sold out, but certainly something is up with stock. Both GameStop and Target are listing the item as not available, but Best Buy still has the bundle online. You still might have some luck in-store.
