ScribbleNauts Unlimited | Wii U e 3DS!

“We’ve kind of had this in the pipe for a while. For a couple of years I’ve been wanting to do something like this, and the Wii U is also really, really powerful—Oh, that’s cool. With the Wii U we’ve been able to make the game way bigger, because with the object creation—putting all that stuff together—the DS just can’t handle all that stuff…even the Wii couldn’t handle it, but the horse-power of this can really handle it.” - 5th Cell's Jeremiah Slaczka

  - Allosaurus on the Loose mission: bring a person capable of tracking a dinosaur, give him a tool to help him find his prey, place something in the cage to entice the dinosaur, provide a distraction to get the dinosaur’s attention, and then find a way to make it sleep once it has worn itself out

  - Can program your object so it behaves in specific ways when certain events occur
  - Give your object a unique name
  - Write to conjure the object later
  - Upload your object to an online server and share it with friends
