GameStop is now taking in-store GameCube Controller Adapter for Wii U pre-orders. The standard adapter can be reserved normally, though the bundle containing both the adapter and controller need to be ordered through Web-in-Store.

GameStop says in its memo that the adapters are still “limited” in stock, and “won’t stick around long”.

It also looks like these new round of adapters will ship in mid-April, as opposed to May 1 which was thrown around as a date previously.

With just a few hours remaining, the Children of Morta managed to reach another stretch goal. Donations topped $100,000 meaning the game will head to Nintendo’s console in the future.

Check out an over for Children of Morta below. A video is attached above. For the Kickstarter, head on over to this page.

Children of Morta is a story-driven hack ‘n slash game incorporating the elements of the roguelike genre, where you will go on an adventure with the guardian family of Bergsons.

The family have lived on the outskirts of Mount Morta, guarding it for many generations. As a tragic event in Morta corrupts the roots of life deep in the mountain, all the creatures turn into furious, possessed monsters. Now the land’s only hope is for the Bergsons to find the seeds of life and use them to cleanse the corruption.

The game has a unique art style blending the old-school 2D pixel art aesthetics with a few modern lighting and rendering techniques, bringing to life a world of fantasy and mystery. The game music is based around orchestral renaissance tunes with many variations to please your ears while taking this journey with the Bergsons.
