When Koji Igarashi’s Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night was announced, it came with the disappointing news that the project wasn’t planned – at least initially – for Nintendo platforms. However, a notice on the Kickstarter page gave a small hint/hope that something such as a Wii U version could be possible if funds reached a certain amount.

Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night has been reaching stretch goals regularly on Kickstarter, and one of the latest updates suggests that a Wii U edition could be in the cards. Fans have been analyzing the new stretch goal image (shown above), which seems to show the top of the Wii U logo at $3 million. That’s not confirmed, but it appears to be the general consensus at the moment.

Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night has raised almost $2.5 million on Kickstarter. If what people are speculating turns out to be accurate, then that means only $500,000 extra would be needed for a Wii U version.

Thanks to Jake for the tip.

Icy Wind Games, a two-man indie developer from Sweden, is developing its first game titled “Heroes, Help!” for the Wii U eShop.

Heroes, Help! is an action-adventure experience that has players setting off on an adventure with three friends to save the princess following her capture. They’ll be gathering gold to purchase new weapons and equipment, discovering secret areas and hidden treasures, defeating bosses, and obtaining clues to find the princess’ location.

In terms of features, Heroes, Help! will offer four-player co-op, over ten levels, player customization for weapons and equipment, achievements, and support for various controllers. The game will run at 60 frames-per-second, and the team is targeting 1080p resolution.

Heroes, Help! will launch in Q1 2016. A few screenshots are in the gallery.
