Nyamyam has finished developing the Wii U version of Tengami. Next on tap for the studio is Nintendo’s lot check and age ratings for the game. Once that’s complete, we’ll hopefully hear about a release date.

Here’s the latest on Tengami straight from Nyamyam:

The version is finished (yay!!!) and we are preparing to go into Lotcheck, Nintendo’s certification process that is required for all games before they are allowed to go on sale. Before that can happen we have to get age ratings for Tengami though. The game is with the various rating organizations around the globe and it is really just a matter of waiting now. The process can take up 3 weeks and there is unfortunately not much we can do to speed it up.
