Playboxie updates HTML 5 games with Wii U support

If you're a Wii U user, the library of games you can play just got a whole lot bigger. Visit PlayBoxie.com on your WiiU and you'll find a whole host of games that can now be sorted by compatibility with your Nintendo console, making it much easier to find a game that supports gamepad play.

The Wii U update for PlayBoxie brings it in line with Xbox One, PS4 and Windows options, meaning you can now sort for games that support your OS, regardless of platform.

“Ok so my name, is uh, PlayBoxie, you see.”

While many of the games support all platforms, the most popular to differ depending on the platform. For example, while Pac Man and Cut the Rope are two of the most popular on both the PS4 and the Xbox One, only the Microsoft console gamers seem interested in playing other classics like Bejewelled and Pong.

All games are free regardless of which platform you play them on and there's a social system built into each one so you can share your favourite moments or comments on the games.

Kitguru Says: While this is hardly going to sell a boat load of Wii Us, it's good that the Nintendo system at least has similar browser based gaming abilities as the other consoles out there. [Cheers WiiUDaily]

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
