Retro Studios president and CEO Michael Kelbaugh commented on several topics while speaking with GameSpot, including the Wii U’s technical capabilities.
According to Kelbaugh, the console is “a powerhouse”, adding, “It’s more than adequate to make great games on.”
“Unfortunately, the perception is that it’s not a very powerful machine. That’s just not true. It’s a powerhouse. It’s more than adequate to make great games on.”
Kelbaugh also mentioned that the Wii U is a “great box to make games on.”

Howard Lincoln, former chairman for Nintendo of America, is thanked in Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze’s credits. The news is hardly earth-shattering, but it’s an interesting nugget. Lincoln was last thanked in a Nintendo game for Metroid Prime 3: Corruption – not Donkey Kong Country Returns. By including Lincoln in the Tropical Freeze credits, Retro could be trying to thank him for helping establish the company.
