Form Up Studios LLC has announced that N.E.O. – Near Earth Objects is coming to Wii U.

Near Earth Objects is a neo-retro arcade-style shooter. It features a ’90s Euro/rave-inspired soundtrack, more than 120 waves of space shootables, and graphics that pay tribute to old CGA games.

Near Earth Objects is launching on the Wii U eShop later this year. Check out a trailer below.

Harvest Moon: Seeds of Memories isn’t the only new title Natsume is planning for Wii U. Today, the company announced that “Ninja Strike” is also in development for the platform (presumably via the eShop).

Here’s the official overview:

Run, fly, and slash enemies to get the stolen treasures back! Be sure to check out this high-speed, action-packed, side-scrolling title in Natsume’s Ninja series! Whether you go with strength or triple jumping, there is a ninja for you! Choose from 5 different ninjas, each with their own special characteristics. You’ll face much more than just run-of-the-mill henchmen! Use your hard-earned coins to level up a variety of skills that will help you get further and make you tougher! Pick the skills that best fit your playing style! How far can you go?

Natsume previously brought Ninja Strike to iOS. On Wii U, this appears to be a completely brand new game, though we’ve attached an image from the mobile version above.

Ninja Strike will be featured at E3 2015 later this month.

Splatoon Update

Kicking off a steady stream of free content additions throughout the summer, Splatoon has a new weapon and map: the nostalgia-packed N-Zap ’85 rapid-fire shooter and the Port Mackerel map, both available now. The N-ZAP ’85 is a shooter with excellent ink efficiency and rapid-fire capability. Its attack power isn’t all that, but it’s fabulous at quickly charging up the Echolocator special weapon. Combined with Splat Bombs, this set caters to fighters who like to cover a lot of ground in battle. For more information, visit http://splatoon.nintendo.com.
