Imagine Me confirmed for the Wii U eShop
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 1 Comment
Another indie title, Imagine Me, has been confirmed for Wii U. KinifiGames hopes to have the platforming dungeon adventure – “Spelunky mixed with Zelda” – out on the eShop in February 2014.
Imagine Me will make use of the GamePad so that the dungeon map can always be displayed. The Wii U version could receive content updates to expand the game’s scope if Nintendo allows for it similar tot he PC version, KinifiGames says.
Imagine Me is Wii U-only in terms of Nintendo platforms. While KinifiGames founder Chris Figueroa is a big 3DS fan, it’s “not in the cards” for now.
Figueroa told Nintendo Life.
“I’d love to but right now that’s not in the cards. I’ve always loved my 3DS and if I was ever given the chance to bring Imagine Me or any game I make to 3DS I would.”

Defender’s Quest very likely for Wii U and 3DS, creator looking into cross-buy support
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS eShop, News, Wii U eShop | 0 comments
Defender’s Quest is looking very likely for both 3DS and Wii U. A 3DS version is all but confirmed, and creator Lars Doucet also confirmed on Twitter that has a Wii U dev kit.
@GamefaMahdi Very good chance! Just not ready to publicly commit ourselves to it 100%. I have a WiiU Dev kit next to me right now.
— Lars Doucet (@larsiusprime) October 23, 2013
Doucet also said he’s looking into the possibility of cross-buy support between Wii U and 3DS:
@GamefaMahdi I'm also trying to reach @Dan_Adelman and see if Nintendo supports WiiU / 3DS cross-buy.
— Lars Doucet (@larsiusprime) October 23, 2013
As far as cross-buy between Wii U and PC goes, the chances of that happening aren’t so high. It’s not something that should be expected, understandably.
@GamefaMahdi Will have to get back to you on that, but *probably* not… console stuff is tricky.
— Lars Doucet (@larsiusprime) October 23, 2013
Thanks to mahdi g for the tip.
Jett Rocket II draws closer to release, plus a small update on Shin’en’s other unannounced Wii U game
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS eShop, News, Wii U eShop | 0 comments
Jett Rocket II: The Wrath of Taikai is gearing up for its launch on the 3DS eShop. Shin’en is currently “preparing the release”, and hopes to have it ready to go within the next few weeks. The game should be out by the end of November at the latest.
Jett Rocket II is also coming to Japan, Shin’en has confirmed to us. If possible, the studio hopes it will be available in the country along with the rest of the world.
We also have a tiny tidbit about Shin’en’s Wii U plans. We do know that one project will be revealed soon. Shin’en has also reconfirmed the existence of a second new Wii U title, which will be revealed later this year.
A couple of new Jett Rocket II screenshots showing one of the game’s bosses can be found below.
Wii Party U not coming to the Canadian eShop; US and Europe as well?
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 1 Comment
Wii Party U will not be sold on the eShop in Canada, a Nintendo representative has said. Consumers will need to purchase the game at retail if they’re interested in adding it to their collection.
It’s currently unclear if this also applies to the US and Europe. For the latter territory, things aren’t looking good. You may have noticed that Wii Party U was absent from the European Nintendo Download report earlier this week.
