Nintendo Direct: The Other Big Announcements

All the other WiiU and 3DS reveals you may have missed...
What with the domination of big Mario and Zelda announcements in today's Nintendo Direct conference, it would have been easy to miss some of the other big reveals we've seen this week. Worry not, though, as I've compiled the 'other' announcements into one cohesive guide. You'll see it below...

  • XENOBLADE DEVS BRANCH OUT: A new trailer was showcased for a unique new RPG franchise from the developers of Xenoblade Chronicles on WiiU- we'll hear more at E3.
  • VIRTUAL CONSOLE U- Another exciting reveal today was that Virtual Console is coming to WiiU. As such, GameCube titles like Luigi's Mansion will soon be available for digital purchase, owing to the fact that the console isn't backwards-compatible for those games.
  • WII PARTY U- The developers of the hit party game Wii Party are currently hard at work on a fully-fledged sequel for WiiU. It's due for release later this year.
  • YOSHI'S LAND U- Much like Kirby's Epic Yarn, the classic platforming franchise Yoshi's Land will feature quirky kid-esque visuals and a charming storyline in a new edition announced today. Again, expect lots more on this at E3 2013.
For all the latest Nintendo news, keep it On-Screen in the weeks ahead!
