Skylanders: Giants Equipped With Unique Controls On Wii U
Activision's beloved monsters made an appearance at Nintendo's media briefing today. Toys for Bob's Skylanders: Giants is heading to Wii U, and it's going to take advantage of the GamePad. Gyroscope movement allows players to tilt for movement, and the touch screen can be used to drag and drop Skylanders characters.
Skylanders: Giants releases on PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, Wii, and 3DS on October 21, and although it wasn't announced at the briefing, should be a launch title for Wii U on November 18.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
