Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 1 Comment
Wario Land: Shake It previously came to the European and Japanese Wii U eShops earlier in the year. As of tomorrow, North American fans will have an opportunity to play the game as well.
Nintendo’s website contains the following overview:
“Wario returns to form, with all the jumping, power-dashing and butt-stomping we’ve come to expect. With the Wii Remote controller turned sideways, veterans and newcomers alike can run, jump and smash their way through hectic side-scrolling stages. By shaking the Wii Remote, you can shake down your enemies, free coins from treasure bags and even cause earthquakes. Each stage is a masterfully crafted side-scrolling obstacle course of puzzles, enemies and assorted hazards. Every stage holds numerous secrets and treasures to discover (and steal). There are also multiple ‘missions’ in each stage to keep you coming back again and again to unlock everything, collect more coins or just improve your best time.”
Pricing for Wario Land: Shake It! is set at $19.99.
