Details on EnjoyUp’s Wii U games
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 0 comments
EnjoyUp has several Wii U titles in the works. Studio head Julio Moruno, speaking with Revogamers, shared some details about the upcoming projects.
Abyss may be the simplest of the group. It’s a port of the DSiWare version with new missions and a two-player multiplayer racing mode. The graphics have also been updated, and off-TV play is supported.
We’ve also previously heard about Rock’N Racing Off Road. This is a racing title inspired by Ivan ‘Ironman’ Stewart’s Super Off Road with multiplayer supporting up to five players. Rock’N Racing Off Road offers off-TV play, too. EnjoyUp is also taking advantage of Unity for physics: driving, crashes and collisions.
Lastly, Aguraki is a difficult side-scrolling shooter with bosses, multiplayer options, and online leaderboards. Moruno loves Treasure games, so Aguraki will likely incorporate a similar style.

Hyper Light Drifter experience will be kept the same across platforms
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 1 Comment
Heart Machine is looking to maintain a similar experience for Hyper Light Drifter across all platforms. That means the Wii U, which can offer unique features in its own right thanks to the GamePad, won’t be much different than the other versions. Heart Machine does intend to include off-TV play support, though that’s about it.
Creator Alex Presto spoke with EDGE this month about maintaining his original vision for Hyper Light Drifter. He said:
Even if we put it on 3DS, we wouldn’t just toss weird touch elements in there for the sake of having them, and it’s the same thing for Wii U. Sure, we want to be able to play on (the GamePad’s) screen, but it’s a game that’s really all about classic controls, and we don’t want to change that for any one console. We want everyone to experience the game as we envisioned it.

This is about as random as it gets. For some reason, the Japanese Wii U eShop is currently playing Wii Fit music. Why? Your guess is as good as mine!

@GoldMetalSonic Since FRN we use 4-8k textures. Means hyper real graphics but 16x storage. Happy this is no prob on WiiU eShop 🙂
— Shin'en Multimedia (@ShinenGames) November 19, 2013
Shin’en is set out again to impress from a technical standpoint. The studio said on Twitter earlier today that FAST Racing Neo – the studio’s second Wii U eShop title – will feature “hyper real graphics”. That’s thanks to the use of 4,000 – 8,000 textures.
