I’m not sure how long this is going to be on sale (no word on the sale at all from WayForward), but you can pick up Mighty Switch Force! Hyper Drive Edition for but five dollars on the North American Wii U eShop. This price finally got me to jump in and pick up the game, and I bet it’ll convince one or two of you as well. :]

Braid creator Jonathan Blow finally lifted the curtain on his next project, The Witness, during the PlayStation 4’s unveiling last night. While the game will initially act as an exclusive to the console, Blow hopes to bring it to additional platforms. The Wii U may very well be in the team’s plans.

According to Blow:

“Basically, you’ll see The Witness on PS4 before you’ll see it on the next Microsoft console or on the Wii U, presuming we eventually do ports to those consoles. Ideally we want the game to be in as many places as we can get it, but since we are a small developer and it’s a complicated game, we can only do so much at once.”

If you wish to learn more about The Witness, you can find a few details here.

The Wii U version of Runner2 looks like it could be the definitive version of the game.

As many of you know, it will be possible to play the entire title directly on the GamePad through off-TV play. Gaijin has also confirmed that Runner2 will feature the best overall load times on Wii U out of any of the consoles. While loading may be slightly slower at first, “it speeds up as you play since we can keep more content in memory, which means fewer loads overall.”

Gaijin wrote in a blog post today:

“The clear difference with the Wii U version is that you can play the entire game on either your gamepad or your TV. Also, because it is the newest platform with the most memory, it has the best overall load times of any of the consoles. Initial loading may be a bit slower, but it speeds up as you play since we can keep more content in memory, which means fewer loads overall.”
