They Bleed Pixels could make its way to the Wii U eShop. Indie developer Spooky Squid Games is open to bringing its platformer to the digital platform.

When asked about the possibility of They Bleed Pixels for Wii U, Spooky Squid Games said:

“We’ve been looking into this so it’s definitely a possibility. We will of course make a big announcement if it happens!”

GameStop is providing consumers with a new Watch Dogs pre-order incentive starting today. Those who reserve the game will receive an exclusive poster made by comic-book artist Alex Ross. Ubisoft says that the design “is the inspiration behind the game’s box art and captures the essence of Aiden Pearce, a modern-day vigilante who must rely as much on brains as brawn to take down threats in our increasingly connected world.”

You can get a first look at the Watch Dogs pre-order art above.

Ecco the Dolphin creator Ed Annunziata launched a Kickstarter last month for a spiritual sequel called “The Big Blue”. Unfortunately, Annunziata wasn’t able to secure the requested funding. Only $55,765 was raised out of the necessary $665,000 total.

So what’s next for the project? Annunziata plans to downsize his goal in hopes of making a smaller and cheaper version of the original idea so that fans can get a better idea as to what The Big Blue can offer.

“I am absolutely certain that if you could try the game and see how beautiful and unique it will be, most people would not hesitate to back it, and will want to be involved in it’s creation. If you can play Little Blue and feel it you will have much less doubts about the Big Blue.”

Little Blue provides one playable dolphin and one other unannounced sea creature, song mechanics, a couple of “very large” environments, private ocean environments, and 10 or more “significant creatures” including at least one leviathan.

Annunziata intends to make Little Blue available for free. It will be directly linked to the next Kickstarter campaign, The Big Blue, Part 2.
