Sega has issued a patch (http://blogs.sega.com/2013/12/10/sonic-lost-world-for-wii-u-gets-free-update/?0=1) for the Wii U version of Sonic: Lost World (http://www.joystiq.com/game/sonic-lost-world), adjusting the game's difficulty in response to player feedback and reintroducing the series-standard "100 rings = extra life" mechanic.
After applying the update, players will now receive ten lives after getting a Game Over, compared to the five lives that players started out with pre-patch.Our review (http://www.joystiq.com/2013/10/18/sonic-lost-world-wii-u-review-d6947e79/) cited a lack of opportunities to earn extra lives as a major drawback in Sonic: Lost World, as players can easily run out of lives in the difficult later levels, leading to frequent and frustrating restarts.
The patch additionally enables analog stick and button control for some of Sonic's Wisp powers, eliminating the need for motion controls and touch screen input.
