The “Nindie” community is working together to highlight new eShop games across Wii U and 3DS over the next several weeks. High-profile titles will be discounted in North America by 10 percent during the first week of launch, and developers will share video stories about their projects development in the eShop. On top of that, these developers will curate a shelf in eShop which features some of their favorite games. All of this is formed as part of “#Nindies Summer Jam”.

Here’s a look at the release schedule:

Sept. 1
Axiom Verge from Thomas Happ Games – In this retro-style action-platform-exploration game, use the Wii U GamePad as your map, a way to easily swap between weapons or for Off-TV Play. A failed scientist dies in an accident, only to awaken in a mysterious, alien world. Where is he? How did he get here? And why do the fundamental laws of reality appear broken? Life. Afterlife. Real. Virtual. Dream. Nightmare. It’s a thin line. It’s Axiom Verge. Available on Wii U.

About a year before Zero Time Dilemma came out, Aksys took pre-orders for a limited edition version of the game. The publisher hoped to hook up fans who put in an early reservation with a special watch. But due to watches being damaged in transit, no one has received the bonus item just yet.

Yesterday, Aksys shared an update about the situation Twitter. Replacement watches arrived in the warehouse, and they’ll now be going out to retailers. That means Amazon and GameStop should finally be able to send out the watches very soon.

The official tweet reads:


Thanks to Jake for the tip.
