Kamiya is back on Twitter. Lets see if and how he responds to RE2 Remake questions. He already said:

TW101 "Well..." RT @SebasRD27: Tomorrow there is a Nintendo Direct talking about new WiiU games... A lot of people is thinking on Bayo 2 XDD

NEW ANNOUNCEMENT.

You know how Iwata was going to talk about some of Nintendo's "services we're developing" tomorrow?

Well I've found evidence that one of the services that will be announced for tomorrow is STRONGLY IMPLIED to be Virtual Console for the Wii U. How do I know?

Because I found this in the source code for the Nintendo Direct page in the UK:

It also has "Nintendo GameCube" there as well. GameCube games for Wii U Virtual Console confirmed?


tmdean checked the Google Cache source code, which shows how the site appeared on January 12th, and it DIDN'T HAVE THE LISTING FOR the Wii U Virtual Console.

Isn't it coincidential that "Virtual Console (Wii U)" was added to the source code just recently...when Iwata's about to announce a Nintendo Direct "about what kind of Wii U titles and services Nintendo is developing"?

I would bet money on Wii U Virtual Console showing up tomorrow.

I strongly believe that Wii Sports U will appear if not here, then at e3. From a business standpoint, it makes a ton of sense, considering the popularity of the original. Also, in one of the first GamePad trailers, they showed someone using the GamePad as a baseball mitt in a game resembling Wii Sports baseball. We've seen "tech demos" of NSMBU and Chase Mii from NintendoLand turn into retail games, and in a video, Nintendo showed that one guy playing ZombiU before we knew what it was. For me, it all adds up, but maybe my math isn't so good. I don't know.

I bet you're right but hope you're not.

I buy cakes for myself on my birthday it's not weird lots of people do it I bet
I wonder what Gamecube games they'd choose to launch for the WII U VC?

I can see Luigi's Mansion and Pikmin to hype up the Wii U sequels. Maybe, since we've got Kamiya doing Wonderful 101 and Bayo 2, Viewtiful Joe for third-party representation.

Nice find! I really wouldn't be shocked if we see the first footage of the Wii U Virtual Console tomorrow.

Waverace and Viewtiful Joe would make me very happy.

That's just their code in the site footer. It's nothing.

It's on every page.

That can't be real page code. I refuse to accept it, especially after Nintendo Entertainment System-gate in one of the Wii U STs!

Well I personally find Aquamarine is my "NeoGaf poster of the year."

I would quote him but I would say nothing useful to his posts. :O

Good find. I figured VC would show up tomorrow (it made sense based on Iwata's tweet). Some new games and a Wii U VC announcement would not dissapoint.

I also found this in their code and found myself puzzled.

var pointsPerEuro = 400 / 4;
var pointsPerPound = 400 / 3.6;
var diffEuroPound = pointsPerEuro / pointsPerPound;

Why are they wasting clock cycles on constants? 400/4 is 100 and 400/3.6 is 111.111...

I think Mother series is going to be in Virtual Console on Wii U announcement...


Source: http://earthboundcentral.com/2012/12/itoi-announces-mother-developments/

Mother (AKA Earthbound in USA) creator Itoi Shigesato has tweeted some new information on upcoming developments regarding the Mother series.

Tweet #1:
Since it’s now okay to blurt this out, here goes: the “MOTHER republication” thing I mentioned briefly before is making progress.
Tweet #2:
It’s not “(MOTHER) 4″, though! This has to do with making “MOTHER” playable. I can’t give out any details just yet, but I do at least need to say that it isn’t 4.



So the first tweet says that it is a "republication." This means that they are (hopefully) working on remaking (or editing) the series for potential future release. Maybe they are taking the questionable legal issues out for release outside of Japan.

The second tweet emphasizes that it is not Mother 4, so there will be no new addition to the Mother trilogy. It does, however say they are trying to make the series playable, meaning able to play on modern consoles in this day and age.
