Remember Devil's Third? At last year's E3 the game was confirmed as a Wii U exclusive, but we've seen precious little of it since then - a strange situation when you consider it that many assumed it would be launching this year.
While little has been seen of the game, creator Tomonobu Itagaki has still been talking about it - in a roundabout way, at least. He spoke recently to People's Daily about smartphone games, and ended up chatting about this forthcoming Wii U release as well.
Hanzala from eXputer: "The cruel hammer of Nintendo has fallen. Farewell, 3DS and Wii U, you surely brightened my life and many others; you won't be forgotten."
A new list goes over eight of the the most useless amiibo, ranging from the Shadow Mewtwo card to the Qbby figure.
VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "10 years. It’s been almost 10 years since the last mainline release in the Mario Kart series. Mario Kart 8 came out for the Wii U in 2014 and became the best-selling game for the system by a sizeable margin, and later pulled the same magic trick on the Nintendo Switch under the stage name Deluxe. All in all, it's sold nearly 70 million copies over the last decade and is still selling like hot cakes to this day, so it’s no wonder Nintendo has been in no rush to replace it. However, with rumors of a new system being just around the corner, and reports a few years back that a new Mario Kart is indeed under way, it seems the era of 8 might very well be drawing to a close. It’s an exciting prospect to be sure, but after two Nintendo systems with Mario Kart 8 at their heart, a lot of questions remain about how Nintendo will choose to follow it up."
I hope they just keep building on Mario Kart 8; Add a track-creation tool, and probably open it up to more Nintendo IPs with new tracks and characters, so Metroid, Punch Out, Starfox, Animal Crossing, etc etc.
there wont be a new one until the switch 2 comes out.
nintendo needs their bangers early on
The game looked rough as hell last year, so i look forward to seeing the new and improved version this year. I have no doubt it'll be good, its Itagaki!
Well it's good to see him talking about his own game rather then incessantly complaining about DOA 😒
I feel like I've heard about this game for the past 4 years or more...
Wii U owners; please support this title if it's well developed. Poor quality? Let it bomb. Though if it's the opposite the terrible spectrum, then we need to show Nintendo "that we want these type of games too, along with their normal output of software."

Back to the subject of this article: Why do people keep hoping for an M-rated title to arrive on a Nintendo console and hope it does well enough to garner more M-rated titles to come to the platform? We haven't even heard of No More Heroes 3 coming to Wii U like Suda 51 initially promised.
