Sonic & All-Stars Racing: Transformed May Come to Wii U
The producer of Sonic & All-Stars Racing: Transformed Joe Neate had this to say when the question of a Wii U version popped up:
“I’m sure there are still discussions ongoing about that at the moment. I think the platforms announced today are the only confirmed ones, but yeah, keep your eyes peeled for potential other platforms I’d imagine.”
There is still hope that the Wii U will be receiving a version of Sonic & All-Stars Racing: Transformed. Sega could be making one but keeping it under wraps until a future date.

Ace Attorney Investigations 2 in North America Still a Possibility
The localization of Ace Attorney Investigations 2 is up in the air right now since Capcom still isn’t sure what to do. During an “Ask Capcom” session, the Consumer Software Senior VP of Capcom named Christian Svensson stated this about Ace Attorney Investigations 2 being localized:
“[Ace Attorney Investigations 2 is] still on the possibility cards”
Ace Attorney Investigations 2 came out in Japan on February 3rd, 2011 on the Nintendo DS. Capcom better make a decision before the Nintendo DS dies. Maybe Capcom could release this game on the eShop of the Nintendo 3DS. Just a possibility.
