Notion Games, developer of Super Ubie Land, has officially revealed its next project for the Wii U: “Team Notion”. It’s planned for the eShop as well as PS Vita.

Team Notion actually started out as a Kickstarter initiative close to two years ago, but work on the title has apparently just begun. The project is a 2D side-scrolling beat-em-up featuring co-op gameplay, unlockable moves for the various characters, and more.
