3DS eShop


Another Kickstarter game may be coming to the Wii U or 3DS eShops (or perhaps retail, though that is somewhat less likely). Metroid-vania-esque title Chasm is currently trying to reach its goal of $150,000 for release on PC, Mac, and Linux, but that hasn’t stopped the developers from discussing its possible future on Nintendo platforms,


“We’ve definitely been considering Nintendo platforms — they seem like a good home for Chasm. The difficulty more lies in getting the game ported, we’d have to hire someone that knows the platforms obviously. We’re still very early in development, so estimating those costs right now is near impossible.”

-Chasm Producer James Petruzzi


Judging by the trailers and screenshots I’ve seen of the game, this would definitely sell well on something like the Wii U! I know that I would likely pick it up (assuming it didn’t get absolutely awful reviews on PC), and I think a lot of you would as well. You can check out their Kickstarter page at the link in the first paragraph.

Guild02 could be one of the new announcements made during this week’s Nintendo Direct.

Level-5 has renewed its black box teaser page, also teasing the news on Twitter:

The last time Level-5 messed around with the black box page, we found out that the Guild01 games were heading to North America and Europe. That’s likely the same case this time around.

C-Wars developer Onipunks has officially added Wii U and 3DS versions of the game to the Kickstarter campaign. If donations hit the $65,000 point, C-Wars will most definitely hit the 3DS eShop. A Wii U version will also be made if funds exceed $80,000.

The Kickstarter campaign just began a few days ago and already managed to obtain nearly $24,000. With 26 days remaining, there’s a pretty good shot that both Nintendo-related stretch goals will be reached.

Peakvox Labs’ 3DS eShop game “Groove Heaven” is heading west, courtesy of publisher Teyon.

Groove Heaven was originally released in Japan toward the end of 2012. The rhythm game includes over 30 levels, Story and Timed modes, and more.

You can find a few Groove Heaven screenshots in the gallery above. An official overview with more details is posted below.


C-Wars is almost a lock for the 3DS eShop. Onipunks has strong interest in bringing its real-time strategy tower defense game to the handheld, and the studio is well on its way to becoming an approved developer.

A Wii U version of C-Wars is also possible. If the game secures enough funding through Kickstarter, we could see the game on both of Nintendo’s platforms.

You can find more details about C-Wars on the Kickstarter page here.
