Tecmo Koei released nine beautiful screenshots of Ninja Gaiden 3 today. Note that they’re from the Xbox 360/PlayStation 3 version of the game, and not the Wii U version known as Razor’s Edge, but you can expect the latter to look every bit as good as these. They were accompanied by the following description in Tecmo Koei’s […]

I can’t […]

A “trusted game development executive” has supposedly leaked some details to Develop regarding the possibility for a second Wii U controller. The complete lack of two-controller support at E3 caused a fan outrage, and Nintendo are now supposedly aware that “they absolutely need to support two tablets”.
