Nicalis is finishing up a patch for 1001 Spikes that will add off-TV play to the game’s Wii U version. It’s unclear when exactly the update will be ready, but it should be submitted to Nintendo of America next month.
Nicalis’ Tyrone Rodriguez wrote on Twitter earlier this week:

Walmart is now offering a way to obtain eShop credit via email. You can purchase values of $10, $20, $35, or $50.
This is a pretty notable move on Walmart’s part. In the past, the only way to receive eShop credit was by using your credit card on the eShop or by buying a points card. Code delivery via email is a convenient option to have!
All eShop credit from Walmart can be ordered here.

The Song of Seven: Chapter 1 funded on Kickstarter
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 0 comments
The Song of Seven has managed to reach its funding goal over on Kickstarter. There was barely any time remaining in the project’s campaign, but donations surpassed the $8,000 mark a short while ago.
All Kickstarter funds will be used in the creation of The Song of Seven’s first chapter. Enlightened Games is planning several chapters, each of which “is meant to be the video game version of a short story, a quick, enjoyable digital romp that can be played in a dedicated day or a lazy weekend.” Combined together, “the chapters assemble a narrative that roams across a world of distinct cultures and intriguing lore with a story that can be enjoyed and appreciated by all ages.”
You can find a trailer for The Song of Seven below. We’ve also included a brief overview. Plenty of additional details are on the Kickstarter page here.
The Song of Seven spans an entire world and tells a story of forgotten celestial siblings, isolated villages, seafaring pirates, ghosts, monsters, leaders, artists, mystics, lovers, dancers, inventors, and the power of connections. Its game play hearkens back to old school point and click, inventory-based adventure/puzzle games but uses third person analog controls for a more updated, immersive feeling.
The Song of Seven: Chapter 1 is targeted for February 2016 on Wii U.

Fullblast is coming to Wii U, a listing from PEGI reveals. EnjoyUp Games will be handling publishing duties.
UFO Crash Games originally made Fullblast for mobile devices and Ouya. The shoot ’em up title features 12 random levels, 3 bosses, power-ups and power-downs, and a heavy metal soundtrack. Achievements and leaderboards were included in the initial release, and we’re hoping they’ll make it to the Wii U version as well.
Watch a trailer for Fullblast below.
