Replay: VHS is not Dead is planned for release on Wii U, a listing on the USK confirms.

The game debuted earlier this year on a few platforms, including Steam. It’s a puzzle-platformer title which takes place in a movie-based universe. Players can record their characters’ movements and use remote control powers to combine actions through roughly 70 levels.

Continue on below for a story overview as well as a trailer.

It is an ordinary Saturday evening for Harvey Hachess as he leaves his favorite video club for a movie night. On his way back, he gets caught in the middle of a rain and a threatening storm. Suddenly, he’s hit by a lightning strike! Knocked out for few minutes, he goes on as if nothing had happened.

Once home, Harvey gets comfortable and plays a video tape, a bag of popcorn in one hand and the remote control in the other one. But something seems wrong as he realize that some scenes are missing from the movie! He puts in another tape, same result… He, then, checks all his cassettes one by one but stays out of luck.

As the last tape was ejected, the VCR made a strange sound and the screen lightened up. Harvey founds himself sucked into the TV. He finds there a great opportunity to re-record all the tapes without risking the loss of his Video Club membership.
