Shin’en has opened the official Art of Balance Wii U site, accessible here. It features screenshots to view and general information about the game. More content will be added to the site in the months ahead.

Dr. Mario is seeing a release on the Wii U Virtual Console… eventually. Nintendo of Europe has a dedicated page up for the game, but with a “TBD” release date. I assume we’ll be seeing it on the eShop sooner rather than later though!

Thanks to Brandon for the tip.

Mario & Sonic at the Sochi 2014 Olympic Winter Games is currently on sale on the European eShop. The same sale is running in North America, too. Until February 9 at 12 PM ET / 9 AM PT, the game can be purchased at a 30 percent discount.
