The deadline for the Mighty No. 9 platform survey, which lets backers select their platform of choice, originally was supposed to end yesterday. However, comcept have decided to extend the deadline until June 1st, 11:59 PM (PDT) since over 13,000 backers have not taken part in the survey yet.

If you haven’t filled out the survey yet, check your e-mail and do so now! Backers who don’t select a platform in time will receive a Steam key by default.

Circle Entertainment posted updates about two games on its Twitter account yesterday.

First, an update for Ash is out now in North America, which fixes some bugs. It’ll be coming to Europe soon as well.

We also have confirmation that Puzzle Labyrinth is launching in North America on June 9. That game was previously announced for the same day in Europe.

Here’s a roundup of the tweets:

BRAMBLETYNE has take to Kickstarter in hopes of funding Space Probe, a “retro-inspired casual game about collecting monsters & exploring the universe”. The goal is reasonable, as the team is only seeking £1,000 for the project. A New 3DS stretch goal lies further ahead at £5,000.

The Kickstarter pitch can be found below. You can give the campaign page a look here.

Several new games out came out this week on the Wii U and 3DS eShops. If you’re interested in checking out what’s new in screenshot form, take a peak at the gallery below.

Yesterday’s Nintendo Download report noted that some Sonic games are now discounted on the North American eShop. However, it didn’t include any specifics on the titles and prices.

We’ve gathered up that information below:

Sonic Lost World (Wii U) – $19.99 (was $29.95)
Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric (Wii U) – $19.99 (was $29.99)
Sonic Generations (3DS) – $19.99 (was $29.99)
Sonic the Hedgehog: Triple Trouble – $2.99 (was $4.99)

These discounts are valid until June 6 at 8:59 AM PT / 11:59 AM ET.

Mighty No. 9 was showcased during Inti Creates’ live stream on Niconico just a short while ago. We now have a recording of the segment below. Unfortunately, the quality is on the low side due to the nature of the stream.

On May 30, the eShop will be down for six hours of maintenance. The digital stores on both Wii U and 3DS will both be impacted with downtime.

Here’s when the maintenance is scheduled for:

– 1 PM PT (May 30) – 7 PM PT (May 30)
– 4 PM ET (May 30) – 10 PM ET (May 30)
– 9 PM in the UK (May 30) – 3 AM in the UK (June 1)
– 10 PM in Europe (May 30) – 4 AM in Europe (June 1)
