Ninja Pizza Girl was last thought to be Wii U-bound in January. That obviously didn’t happen, but a Kickstarter update from Disparity Games indicates that the eShop version is coming very soon.

Development on the Wii U version is said to be “very, very, very close to done but it still needs two more days of work before it’s ready to send to Nintendo.” Ninja Pizza Girl is still at least a month out, though it won’t be too much longer now.

Here’s the full update from Disparity:

Hello WiiU people! Brace yourselves for FULL DISCLOSURE as we peek behind the curtain of game development. We have a working WiiU build. It’s great! It supports the pro controller, the wiimote (my favourite controller to play NPG on, it’s lovely and old-school and just feels great), the gamepad and it allows for easy swapping between the TV and gamepad screen. It’s very, very, very close to done but it still needs two more days of work before it’s ready to send to Nintendo. The first chance we have to work on it for two days is this Saturday so we hope to be sending Ninja Pizza Girl to the wizards at Nintendo on Sunday. It then has to be rigorously checked by Nintendo, approved, and much, much paperwork filled in. I think Pikachu has to personally sign off on everything, I’m not too sure what goes on there really. When that’s all done we’ll have an official release date and can finally fill your lives with warm, wonderful Ninja Pizza Girl goodness. We can’t say for sure how long this process will take but based on our experience with other platforms our best guess is about 30 days. Starting from Saturday we’ll give you updates for each step of this process so you can see exactly what’s happening and share the last trek of this very long road with us.

Prismic Studios prepared a new trailer for Gnomes vs. Fairies. You can give it a look below.

Work on Gnomes vs. Fairies as a whole is now complete. The studio has now moved on to development of the Wii U version specifically.

Defend Your Crypt won’t require much space when it arrives in North America and Europe next Thursday. On Wii U, the download is just 46MB. The 3DS version needs 56 blocks of free space, or 7MB.

Defend Your Crypt isn’t just releasing in Europe next week. We’ve heard from Ratalaika Games that North America will have it on the same day – July 21.

We’ve already posted Defend Your Crypt’s Wii U trailer. Now we have a video for the 3DS edition below.

Kerbal Space Program is starting to make its way to consoles, but the Wii U version is taking a bit longer than expected. Squad announced today that the game will be available this winter on the eShop.

For those who haven’t heard about Kerbal Space Program before, here’s what it’s all about:

Create your own spacecraft, launch it into space to explore the galaxy, and visit a vast amount of planets; assuming you can get it off the ground! Once you’ve made it to deep space, KSP lets you capture asteroids, launch mining programs to find resources across the furthest reaches of the solar system and build space stations around planets you discover.

Kerbal Space Program offers three game modes:

– In Sandbox, where you’re free to build anything your imagination can come up with;
– Science Mode lets you perform scientific experiments and advance the knowledge of Kerbals to unlock new technologies;
– Career Mode, places you in control of every aspect of the space program including crew management, reputation building, as well as embarking on side missions called ‘contracts’ to earn funds and upgrade your space center facilities.

Kerbal Space Program was confirmed for Wii U last August. When it does hit Nintendo’s console, the game will let players control their ship from the inside with the GamePad. Flight planning on the fly can be done with touchscreen controls, and the ship can be steered with gyro motion controls.

More footage has been posted from the new Wii U eShop game Bit Dungeon+. Check out the latest video with gameplay below.

Wii U had long been a target platform for Road Redemption. In fact, the system was included in the game’s Kickstarter campaign.

But now it looks like things aren’t meant to be. DarkSeas said last month that Wii U support is being re-evaluated with NX on the horizon.

The studio further explained the decision on Kickstarter, writing:

“We like the Wii U as much as you guys do, if not more. Smash Bros and Mario Kart 8 are some of our favorite games. Zelda: Breath of the Wild looks awesome and a great direction for the series, in my opinion. Some of my best gaming memories are playing Goldeneye and Mario Kart 64 battle mode in splitscreen, and we were very excited about using the Wii U’s 2nd screen for local Road Redemption multiplayer.”

Ultimately the choice comes down to two factors:
