PSA: Nintendo hosting two indie-focused GDC Europe sessions next week

Nintendo is taking Wii U to gamescom next week and as part of the preceding GDC Europe event it will host two sessions dedicated to indie development on the format.

Monday 19th August, from 13:00 - 14:00
Highlighting the way that developers can quickly develop Wii U software using Nintendo Web Framework.
Speakers: Martin Buchholz (NOE), Svyetoslav Pidgornyy (NOE)

Unity, Wii U and You:
Tuesday 20th August, 13:00 - 14:00
Focusing on the benefits for developers through Nintendo's collaboration with Unity, demonstrating the technical advantages of using Unity and the process of getting your title published on Wii U.
Speakers: Wayne Johnson (Unity), James Steele (NOE)
