Shovel Knight’s Wii U/3DS-specific features detailed
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS eShop, News, Wii U eShop | 1 Comment
We’ve briefly touched on Shovel Knight’s unique Wii U and 3DS features in the past. Thanks to Destructoid’s recent interview with Yacht Club Games, more information has surfaced.
On 3DS, players can change their items and view gear without having to stop the action. There’s also the StreetPass Arena, which Destructoid describes as follows:
“You have to collect five gems in five seconds and defeat the other Shovel Knights, but there are no other Shovel Knights. But when you Street Pass someone, your recordings go head to head and you can watch the wild stabs at nothing after the fact.”
The Wii U version of Shovel Knight will also have some unique elements of its own. This version will offer Digger’s Diary messages on the GamePad in every area, somewhat like to Dark Souls – and drawing is allowed as well. Yacht Club Games also intends to bring multiplayer to the Wii U version through a future free update.

Saturnine Games shares update about Turtle Tale’s status
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS eShop, News, Wii U eShop | 0 comments
On Twitter a little while ago, Saturnine Games shared an update about the status of Turtle Tale.
The 3DS version of the game has now been approved by Nintendo of America. It’s still awaiting approval in Europe though.
Saturnine is also continuing development of Turtle Tale on Wii U, which is “progressing well.” It could be submitted to lot check by the end of the month.
Saturnine hopes to see Turtle Tale out in mid/late May. Pricing will be under $5.
NOA approved Turtle Tale for 3DS. Now NCL has to approve it as well. We're hoping to hear from NOE any day now.

Turtle Tale for Wii U is progressing well. No promises, but the end of the month feels like a reasonable target for submitting to lot check.

@kitroplious Nothing concrete yet,but it's looking like Mid/Late May. Price will be under $5. Haven't committed to an exact price yet.
