Japanese Wii U eShop games are tough to come by these days, but Kemco is readying a new one for release next week.

“Togabito no Senritsu” is a psycho suspense adventure game, dealing with loss and death associated with a murder title.

In this death game, several are trapped in prison, and they’ll need to work together to escape. Throughout the experience, characters give into their selfish nature and uncover the sins of their past. Belief and bonds in extreme conditions, hate and love, and the story of defeat and victory are just some of the elements players will encounter.

Did that get your attention? Those who own Japanese Wii U systems can purchase Togabito no Senritsu from the eShop on October 2 for 1,000 yen.

Watch_Dogs made its impressive debut at Ubisoft’s E3 conference last year. Subsequent footage hasn’t been as well-received, particularly one video featuring Aisha Tyler.

Creative director Jonathan Morin claims that Watch_Dogs’ visuals haven’t deteriorated. “It’s pretty much the opposite,” he told VideoGamer.

Morin explained:

“There’s no scale down in quality, especially the next-gen versions. It’s pretty much the opposite. What we showed at E3 2012 in a lot of respects was less good. I think it’s in the details. So no, there’s no scale down.”

And what of the disappointing Aisha Tyler video? Morin put the blame on internal “communications issues”.

Conatus Creative previously expressed interest in bringing River City Ransom: Underground to the Wii U and 3DS. That interest has now translated into stretch goals on Kickstarter.

If River City Ransom: Underground manages to raise $320,000 CAD, the game will come to both eShops – Wii U and 3DS. It could be difficult to reach such a high amount with only 11 days remaining in the campaign, but it’s nonetheless encouraging to see both platforms included in the Kickstarter.
