Thugs have kidnapped your beloved Madonna, and it’s up to you to become a VIGILANTE. Fight your way into enemy territory to get her back! Enemies attack you with weapons like iron pipes, chains, guns, and motorcycles. To fight back, you can punch, kick, or use the “nunchaku” item that appears in the stage. Use each of your attacks effectively to defeat your enemies. To clear a stage, defeat the boss that awaits you at the end. Fight your way through exciting stages that include the City Streets, Junkyard, Brooklyn Bridge, and the Backstreets.

Pricing for Vigilante is set at $5.99.

The wait for Hive Jump on Wii U is finally over. Graphite Lab announced a release date today, with the game now set for September 28 in North America.

On Wii U, Hive Jump will have the following features:

Mini-Map: The Wii U GamePad mini-map will display the layout of the hive as you explore it, and reveal points of interest like doors and chests. Hazards like lava and spikes are labelled as pink tiles, and destructible walls as orange. Players can switch between this mini-map view, and the next Wii U GamePad feature!

Off-Screen Play: You can play Hive Jump entirely on the Wii U GamePad! When in a hive, simply hit the Select button to switch between seeing the mini-map on the Wii U GamePad and seeing mirrored gameplay on it. It goes almost without saying that the Wii U GamePad also outputs sound through its speakers, or optional headphone jack.

Hive Jump was originally going to cost $19.99 on Wii U. However, it has been revised to $14.99 after some “very long conversations about the best price point”.

More information about Hive Jump can be found at the source link below.

Two Virtual Console games are releasing for Wii U in North America this week. According to Nintendo’s website, Detana Twin Bee and China Warrior will be out tomorrow.

Here’s an overview of Detana Twin Bee:

Here come Twinbee and Winbee on a mission to save the planet from evil alien invaders! Standing in their way are six stages full of goofy enemies! Play as Twinbee in one-player mode, or team up with Winbee in two-player-cooperative mode. With powerful attacks like Big Shot, or Twin Attack and Burst Attack in two-player mode, there’s plenty of sting in their arsenal! Use your Shot to transform Bells that appear in stages into items with various effects. Stock up on these bad boys to expand your attack range and really have a blast!

And China Warrior:

It’s up to the kung-fu master Wang to defeat the Dark Emperor, who stands at the top of the kung-fu world in China. Punch, kick, and jump kick your way through all the enemies in the path between you and the three bosses of each stage. Skillfully fight your way through all 4 stages. Be sure not to miss recovery items while dodging enemy attacks! One-on-one fights against the game’s realistic bosses will get you so excited that you’ll feel like you’re in the middle of a kung-fu movie!

Detana Twin Bee and China Warrior will be priced at $5.99 each.
