Nintendo updates Wii U summer plans

Nintendo Direct brings news of release dates, new Sonic game

Posted on

Nintendo has announced a slew of content and plans for the Wii U system in the summer of 2013.

The next title in SEGA's Sonic the Hedgehog franchise will be exclusive to Nintendo's Wii U home console and Nintendo 3DS portable system. Sonic: Lost World is a new action platforming game, and more information about it will be announced soon.

The Nintendo Direct also announced Mario & Sonic at the Sochi 2014 Olympic Winter Games for Wii U, and revealed that select Wii U games featured at E3 2013 will soon be playable at participating Best Buy stores.

New Super Luigi U will be released as downloadable content for New Super Mario Bros. U in the Nintendo eShop on June 20 for $19.99. But in honor of the Year of Luigi, Nintendo is also offering a standalone packaged version of New Super Luigi U that doesn't require New Super Mario Bros. U on Aug. 25 for $29.99.

It was also confirmed that the Wonderful 101 launches Sept. 15 and Pikmin 3 on Aug. 4.

Another Nintendo Direct focused on future Wii U content will air around the time of E3 2013.
