A pair of DS titles are heading to the North American Wii U Virtual Console this week. As of tomorrow, Kirby Canvas Curse and Animal Crossing: Wild World will be available.

Below are overviews of each:

Kirby Canvas Curse

“When Kirby gets turned into a ball by an evil witch, your hand-drawn rainbow paths become the only way he can find power-ups and reach the gates in each world. Stun enemies, destroy barriers, and detonate bombs—and do much more—by using the stylus. Unlock special features by collecting medals in each stage and completing in-game tasks!”

Animal Crossing: Wild World

“Get ready to start a new life! Whether you want to decorate your home, catch bugs or fish, join in on special events, or just chat with the locals, there’s always plenty to do! Accessorize your life with over 600 new items. Design constellations, clothes, and flags. Take part in events as the seasons come and go!”

Nintendo’s website doesn’t list prices yet, but both should cost $9.99 each.

Bit Dungeon+ is already available in Europe, as it launched in July. In North America, we’ll be seeing it this week. Dolores Entertainment has passed along the news that the game is lined up for Thursday.

Here’s an overview:

“Bit Dungeon+ is a two-player action rogue-like adventure. You and your loved one have been captured and trapped in a dungeon for a thousand years. You wake up in a cell – grab your weapon and let the quest to find her soul begin!

Explore randomised dungeons and hack and slash your way through dangerous bosses. The difficulty increases as you become stronger and stronger, so upgrade your character with powerful passive abilities.”

Bit Dungeon+ will cost $6.00.

Antipole DX will no longer launch in 2016 as originally planned. In a Miiverse post, creator Edward Di Geronimo explained that the project is roughly 95 percent complete, though other obligations have prevented development from finishing entirely. Although it’s nearly done, we won’t be seeing Antipole DX this year.

Geronimo isn’t ready to share any sort of new date at the moment. He said Antipole DX “is very close to done and doesn’t need a lot more work, but I’m just not sure when the timing will work out.”

Ezekiel Rage is working on Gravity+, a new puzzle game for the Wii U eShop. In it, players need to grab the key and reach the exit while taking on encounter hazards and obstacles. The main hook in Gravity+ is that the gravity can change at any time. Gravity+ features more than two dozen stages, challenges, leaderboards, and Miiverse support.

We’ve attached the trailer for Gravity+ below. A release date will likely be announced sometime soon.

Xavier Orion Games hasn’t had the easiest time porting Booty Diver for Wii U. However, the indie developer confirmed today that the eShop version is still planned, and is working with TreeFall Studios to make it happen. The two sides will be collaborating on any other Wii U projects from Xavier Orion Games as well.

Xavier Orion Games is still handling actual development and publishing responsibilities. TreeFalls Studio will primarily be tasked with testing.

In a blog update, Xavier Orion Games said: “As we progress we will keep everyone updated on how close Booty Diver is to arriving on its true home Nintendo Wii U.”
