Slender: The Arrival will be available on the North American Wii U eShop next Thursday, Blue Island Studios has announced. Pricing is set at $9.99.

On Wii U, Slender: The Arrival will allow for players to use the Wii Remote as an in-game flashlight. It’s possible to shine weak light onto the world and search for clues.

Here’s an overview of Slender: The Arrival:

The nightmarish Slender Man is described by eye witnesses as a thin, unnaturally tall man dressed in a black suit with a blank, featureless face. Slender: The Arrival brings brand new story elements and extended levels to the world of Slender Man that continue to unfold the terrifying mythos. Players are enveloped in a world of sensory deprivation filled with haunting visions and audio cues that create a healthy dose of tension and paranoia.

In The Arrival’s storyline, Lauren is in search of her friend Kate, who recently has become increasingly obsessed with the folklore of Slender Man. Was Kate’s disappearance the work of Slender Man? Use Kate’s forgotten flashlight with the Wii Remote to explore abandoned houses, creepy mines and dark forests to unravel the mystery – all while being stalked by the menacing presence of Slender Man.

This week’s Wii U Virtual Console game has been confirmed through a listing on Nintendo’s website. Final Fight One, which came out in Europe and Japan back in July, is now due out in North America tomorrow.

Here’s an overview of the title:

“Trouble is brewing in Metro City. After a massive takedown on crime and violence by Mayor Mike Haggar, the Mad Gear Gang take revenge by kidnapping the mayor’s daughter, Jessica. Knowing that he won’t be able to battle this storm on his own, he enlists the help of two acquaintances—Cody and Guy.

Take on the role of either Cody, Guy, or Mike as they punch, kick, and throw down throngs of thugs. Defeat all enemies in order to advance to the next stage. In this version of the game, there are six stages showing a different area of the city, including an extra stage that was not available in the SNES version of Final Fight. Scour the city streets and rescue Jessica before it’s too late!”

Pricing for Final Fight One is set at $7.99.

Ninja Pizza Girl recently came out on Steam, but it has yet to hit consoles – including Wii U. It sounds like it’s going to be at least a few months before the game launches on the eShop.

Here’s the Steam launch trailer:
