I am not too sure, I know he has done some presentations for various games related conferences. I was listening in to the one about how Goldeneye was developed. Martin Hollis started Zoonami but it doesn't exist anymore. I probably only know about it due to them being a Cambridge company. What does ...

The Wii U isn't doing so great for 3rd partys though. We have one in the office gathering dust in case anyone wants to develop games for it and we need to support it its the same for Vita.
