Churbles is coming to Wii U following a modification of the game’s Kickstarter stretch goals. Developer CrashGem set the console versions at $24,000 yesterday – which has already been reached – and so we’ll be seeing Churbles on Nintendo’s system, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One. The title is tentatively planned for release in late 2014.
