NES 30th

NES 30th is an upcoming game for the Wii U set to be released in 2015. It is developed by Ninesoft and published by Nintendo It is a retro throwback to old NES games, similar to Retro Game Challenge and Mega Man 9. It is an all-new adventure, featuring Mario, Zelda, and Pikmin characters. New 8-bit Pikmin sprites have been created for this game, based on ones from Pikmin 2-e. Each character has their own story.
==Development==
The development all started off when the company Oogle was creating an anniversary compilation for the NES's 25th anniversary. It was abandoned by Oogle, so Nintendo bought NES 25th from Oogle for $400,000. Nintendo decided to completely change most of the idea, with the only aspects of the game remaining were some of the NES games.
