Capcom effectively confirms their support for Project Café
Capcom is one company that has traditionally been very supportive of Nintendo’s platforms in the past, and I expect no different for the Wii’s successor. A quote from an interview with IGN all but confirms they’re working on something. We’re a multiplatform publisher, and I think anytime we have new hardware coming to the market that can […]
Touchscreen controller confirmed, to be usable as a standalone device?
Arguably the most prominent rumour about the Wii’s successor has been that of a touchscreen-enabled controller. Nikkei, a well-known source of accurate leaks in the past, has “confirmed” that the Wii 2’s controller will, in fact, actually feature that six-inch touchscreen. And while it wasn’t said directly, a further statement seems to imply that the […]
Super Mario Café to be shown at E3?
CVG claims to have heard word that Nintendo’s going to be showing off another Mario game that isn’t Super Mario 3DS at E3, quite possibly one for the Wii’s successor. They speculate that it may be a new Super Mario Galaxy title, but that’s just their own guess. But we’ve also heard another little whisper […]
Project Café to be at EB Expo in October?
EB Games is starting a new video games expo down in Australia known as the EB Expo. Nintendo’s been confirmed to be in attendance there, but Daniel Vuckovic of Vooks.net has heard word that their new console will be shown there, “with Nintendo allegedly booking floor space for something big.” Tickets for the show are […]
New Zelda title to be revealed at E3
Not too long ago, Eiji Aonuma appeared on Famitsu’s TV channel, Nico Nico, and apparently revealed a very interesting little tidbit while he was on there: namely, that a new Zelda title would get shown during the week of E3 in celebration of the franchise’s 25th anniversary. That’s all we’ve got. The platform of the […]
A Metroid screenshot (faked, but awesome nonetheless)
We’re now into the final week before E3, and at this stage, the rumour mill is likely going to go wild, so don’t feel compelled to believe everything you read online about the Wii 2. With that said, an alleged screenshot of a Metroid game on Project Café has surfaced. The screenshot is definitely fake, […]

Emily Rogers’ last Wii 2 rumours (well, sort of)
May 31st, 2011 in News
For the last month or so the Wii 2 blog has been reporting on Emily Rogers’ rumours that she has received from her sources. Some of them have been believable and some of them haven’t. She has now made a list of Wii 2 rumours which she guarantees to be true or, apparently, she will never […]
Could ‘Beem’ be Project Café’s real name?
There’s been a lot of debate over what Project Café would actually end up being called. The two most common names we’ve heard so far are ‘Nintendo Stream’ and ‘Nintendo Feel’. But an interesting news tip from Dooks1111 (who contributed a piece to the mockup gallery and will get a community showcase feature soon) brings […]
A ‘leaked’ Project Café specs sheet
An image has just started circulating the web, which purports to be a sheet of the Wii 2’s technical specifications. It looks plausible, and is more or less in line with what we’ve been hearing about the console’s specs so far (minus the quad-core CPU – we’ve only heard reports of a tri-core so far), […]
