Wii U eShop

Update (12/11): Bumped to the top. The update is now live in Europe for 3DS digital owners. Additionally, the update is 92MB.



Original (12/10): Shovel Knight’s latest update (version 2.1) which allows for new functionality with amiibo is up and running in Europe on Wii U. It will soon be out on 3DS as well, but Yacht Club Games ran into “a small road bump on the way to finalization.” We’ll have the news here when the update can be downloaded for Nintendo’s portable.

As for North America, Yacht Club Games plans to prepare Shovel Knight’s patch by January 8.

Continue on below for Shovel Knight’s 2.1 update notes. You can also find an instruction manual for amiibo here.

Yesterday, Medabots: Rokusho came out on the North American Wii U Virtual Console. Take a look at some footage from the game below.

Indie studio Crystalline Green is developing “Flight of Light” for Wii U. The eShop title has players flying through the air and racing friends in time to the music.

Gamers can expect a mix of music, rhythm and racing action. You’ll need to use the Wii Remote to rotate a color wheel on screen and match colored items along a path.

Here’s a video for the project:
