Cavelight Entertainment has become an official Wii U developer, and could bring “Velocity Stream” to the eShop. At the moment, Cavelight isn’t in possession of any dev kits, so a Wii U release would likely arrive after the PC version.

Velocity Stream is an asymmetric racing game. While it may seem like a traditional racer, the “paver” mixes things up. One player controls the paver, which can create endless streams of energy for the other participants to race on. The track’s angle, width, and obstacles can all be modified.

Check out the video above to see Velocity Stream in action.

Now that Pokemon Bank has relaunched in Japan, fans are anticipating the app’s launch in overseas countries. Nintendo of Europe – similar to Nintendo of America – doesn’t have a specific release date to announce, but did share another update on Twitter a short while ago.

Nintendo once again apologized for Pokemon Bank’s delay as well as the time it took to provide the latest news about its availability. With Pokemon Bank and Poke Transporter’s relaunch in Asian territories, Nintendo says it will “be closely monitoring player’s experiences as we prepare for the European release.”
