Jett Rocket originally started out on Wii as a WiiWare title. In December 2011, developer Shin’en announced a sequel for the 3DS as an eShop release.

Yet even though Jett Rocket is making the transition from console to handheld, Shin’en isn’t opposed to bring Jett Rocket II to the Wii U eShop.

You may remember how, a few weeks ago, Shin’en published a tweet that seemed to ask fans about their feelings regarding an HD version. We followed up with the studio about the possibility of a Wii U port, and were told the following:

“We originally didn’t plan a Wii U version of JR2 but since we connected a 3DS devkit to a TV to capture some footage we realized the game would work great on the big screen. So if fans really ask for it we would be happy to go for it.”

So there you have it. Want Jett Rocket II on Wii U? Let Shin’en know!

SteamWorld Dig is Image & Form’s first 3DS title. Prior to this, the studio had been developing for iOS and Android.

Even though these platform may have larger install bases, Image & Form CEO Brjann Sigurgeirsson noted in an interview with Gamer’s Thumb that they’re more crowded, and may have users who are not as dedicated to gaming – leading to prices that “have fallen through the floor.”

Once Image & Form started to consider the situation, the company felt that the 3DS would be a good fit for their titles. With an increasing install base and gamer-centric focus, Nintendo’s portable system was a top choice for SteamWorld Dig – a game that “fits the unit like a glove.”

Indie developer Barnstorm Games just launched its Kickstarter for “Pro Pinball: Timeshock!” yesterday. The campaign has already raised over £17,000 of the £40,000 goal.

The campaign doesn’t have any Wii U or 3DS stretch goals at present (that could change in the future), but Barnstorm has interest in bringing Pro Pinball to both platforms “eventually”.

You can support Pro Pinball: Timeshock! on Kickstarter here. Barnstorm intends to include realistic tables, worldwide leaderboards, and more.

Donkey Kong will be hitting the 3DS eShop on August 15, according a listing on the digital store. Pricing is set at $4.99.

Like Nintendo’s own website database, take these listings with a grain of salt. They’re often accurate, but there have been a few cases in which they’ve been incorrect.
