Wii U eShop

Candlelight Studios, the developer of the RPG Untold Story, really wants to bring the game to Wii U. There’s just one problem: money.

Creator Joshua Temblett told Nintendo Life that a Wii U version “would cost between £2,500 – £5,000”, and that’s something he doesn’t have at the moment. Temblett first intends to release Untold Story on PC. If he obtains the necessary funds, there’s a good chance we’ll see it on Wii U in the future.

Temblett’s full words:

I would love nothing more than to bring Untold Story to the Wii U, it does have NES inspired graphics after all!

I’ve estimated that in order to bring Untold Story to the Wii U it would cost between £2,500 – £5,000, that’s including language translation to get it onto each region’s eShop, as well as paying for each region’s rating services (ESRB, Pegi etc). Unfortunately, I can’t afford such an amount right now.

My aim is to release Untold Story first on Windows, and then looking into releasing it on the Wii U when I have the funds.

You can view a trailer for Untold Story above. You can keep track of updates on the official page here.

Update 2: Name update: the game is going by the tentative name “Project Ukulele”. Additionally, reader Noble Wrot tried adjusting the levels and contrasts of the image below to bring out the forms of the shadowy figures. We might be looking at a bird and some kind of reptile!

Update: Teaser site open here. The team is entirely comprised of those who were formerly from Rare. We also have this piece of art:

This month’s issue of EDGE contains an interview with Playtonic. The studio’s first game will be a spiritual successor to Banjo Kazooie, and the team seems to have quite a bit of interest in the Wii U.

As stated in the magazine:

“There’s a history of working with Nintendo so we’d naturally love to see our game on a Nintendo platform. If people tell us to make Wii U our target console platform then we’ve got the flexibility to do that.”

Playtonic has funding, but the company would like to team up with a publisher if the two sides were interesting in working together. The plan is to first release this game on Steam Early Access, followed by consoles.

Good Mood Creators has announced “Mekazoo”, a new side-scrolling platformer for Wii U, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC. The camera shifts through different angles depending on the action shown on-screen.

In Mekazoo, players can control five mekanimals such as a fast-moving armadillo. Other characters can be unlocked including a frog, a wallaby, a panda, and a pelican. Mekanimals can pair up and players will be able to switch between them at will.

Check out a trailer for Mekazoo above. The game is due out later this year.
