Collateral Thinking due out on the Wii U eShop soon
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 0 comments
Astrosaurus Games is readying Collateral Thinking “an arcade-style action platformer for Wii U that’s all about beating up alien ghosts, recovering blueprints, and rescuing billionaires on a tight schedule (and budget).”
The indie developer passed along the following overview:
“Collateral Thinking is an arcade-style action platformer for Wii U that’s all about beating up alien ghosts, recovering blueprints, and rescuing billionaires on a tight schedule (and budget). Each level is a self-contained screen that gives you one of three specific tasks to complete in 30 short seconds – to “Avoid” all the hazards, to “Bust” all the enemies, or to “Collect” all the blueprints. These quickfire challenges force you to quickly survey your surroundings and then jump into action in order to progress through the 100+ floors and net as much cash as possible along the way. The game is meant to blend the core floor-climbing, obstacle negotiation of Donkey Kong with the original Mario Bros.’ single-screen enemy hunting, and then crank up the speed, intensity, and absurdity while adding elements of Wario Ware’s unpredictability and impulsivity to the mix.”
Astrosaurus Games says Collateral Thinking will be out within “the next week or two” in North America. Europe and Australia will have it on August 18. When it’s available, the game will cost $2.99.

Telltale Games published a trailer for the next episode of Minecraft: Story Mode, titled “Access Denied”. View it below.
And here’s an overview:
“In Episode 7: ‘Access Denied,’ continuing their portal journey in search of home, Jesse and crew land in a world entirely controlled by PAMA — a sinister “thinking machine” determined to command everyone and everything in pursuit of optimal usefulness and efficiency. Forced on the run to avoid capture and assimilation, you’ll need to work with a new ally to defeat the corrupted computer and free the population it has enslaved.”
Telltale recently brought out a few episodes of Minecraft: Story Mode on Wii U. Hopefully it won’t be too long before we start seeing the latest ones appear on the eShop!
