Gunman Clive HD Collection has sold around 9,000 copies on Wii U
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 20 Comments
Gunman Clive HD Collection hit the Wii U eShop last September. Since then, the download has gone on to sell roughly 9,000 copies, creator Bertil Hörberg has said. That figure doesn’t include sales from Japan, though its impact in the territory was minimal.
On Wii U, Gunman Clive HD Collection sold close to ten times the amount of the Steam version. And given that the two games are also available on the 3DS eShop, the Wii U figure is fairly respectable.
Below are Hörberg’s full comments on the Wii U version’s performance:
“For some slight bit of context Gunman Clive HD Collection has sold about 9000 copies so far (not counting japan, for which I don’t have numbers yet but the initial reports were not very encouraging). Not an amazing number by any means still profitable by most measures: And also I imagine there’s a pretty big overlap of 3DS and WiiU owners so it’s not a big surprise that people aren’t double dipping. It’s about 10x the sales of the Steam release of GC2 however. Admittedly I’ve done an even worse job at promoting that release though and also don’t have many press contacts who focus on PC”
Thanks to Arison for the tip.

Update: Returning with new ESRB rating – Bigley’s Revenge disappears from the Wii U eShop
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 17 Comments
Update: Creator Jordan Schuetz says Bigley’s Revenge is only being removed temporarily. It’ll be back, and with a “T” rating from the ESRB. An update might happen as well.
ESRB has a form where rate what content is in your game. I marked: Violence "Mostly fantastical setting" & "Stylized depiction".
— Jordan Schuetz (@ninjapigstudios) January 16, 2016
ESRB came back today and literally marked the same boxes, however they determined for whatever reason that it should be rated Teen.
— Jordan Schuetz (@ninjapigstudios) January 16, 2016
For everyone wondering, that's why the game is off the eShop. I can resubmit the game if I wish to with the new rating.
— Jordan Schuetz (@ninjapigstudios) January 16, 2016
Bigley's Revenge is now rated Teen by ESRB.
— Jordan Schuetz (@ninjapigstudios) January 16, 2016
Bigley's Revenge can't be listed on the eShop again until I submit a new ROM to Nintendo. Maybe I'll make some improvements to the game also
— Jordan Schuetz (@ninjapigstudios) January 16, 2016
No one would have to repurchase Bigley's Revenge. They would receive an update.
— Jordan Schuetz (@ninjapigstudios) January 16, 2016
Indie game Bigley’s Revenge may have been removed from the Wii U eShop. It’s nowhere to be found in the store, and searching for the game returns no results. The same goes for the Miiverse community.
This wouldn’t be the first time that a Wii U eShop from Ninja Pig Studios has been removed. Meme Run suffered a similar fate over a copyright issue. Bigley’s Revenge also features several memes, so it’s possible that’s come into play here as well. We won’t have a clear answer until Ninja Pig Studios provides an official update.

No Time To Explain heading to Wii U
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 3 Comments
Update: Here’s the official word from tinyBuild:
@NinEverything well for the record we're working on it but can't confirm, it's our first console game and the code is difficult to optimize
— tinyBuildGAMES (@tinyBuild) January 15, 2016
tinyBuild is bringing No Time to Explain to Wii U. That’s according to a classification listing coming from PEGI.
No Time to Explain, a platform game, started off in 2011 as a browser release. It’s been put out on several systems since then, and it looks like Wii U will be joining in on the fun as well.
Here’s a brief overview of No Time To Explain:
“No Time To Explain is a game about shooting the ground, putting on weight and setting your body on fire. Blast yourself through time and alternate realities to rescue your future-self from a giant crab sent by your evil time-twin from another dimension! Add up to 3 friends to join during the adventure.”
For a better look at the game, view the 2013 Steam trailer below.
