Wii U eShop


Two Tribes is bringing a new game to the eShop this year. Actually, rather than “new”, we should probably say “existing” – which was confirmed on Twitter.

The rest is shrouded in mystery. I don’t believe Two Tribes gave a clear indication about which one of the eShops the game will be out for.

Nintendo Everything has received confirmation from WayForward that Mighty Switch Force! 2 is coming to Wii U, but “it’s kind of a backburner project right now”. The studio hopes to make an official announcement sometime within the next few weeks.

Mighty Switch Force! 2 originally hit the 3DS eShop in June. PEGI rated a Wii U version just one month later, hinting at a potential release on Nintendo’s home console.

The first Mighty Switch Force!, released in late 2011, was initially a 3DS-only title as well. But for the Wii U’s launch, WayForward created a new version subtitled “Hyper Drive Edition”.


In the UK, Pokemon Rumble U will cost £13.49 – so says a listing on the eShop. A $17.99 price point was previously confirmed for the US release.

Pokemon Rumble U launches this coming Thursday in Europe. North America will be getting the game on August 29.

Monkey Pirates was one of several games confirmed for the Wii U eShop during the latest European Nintendo Direct. And it makes sense for it to be there – Henchmen Studio programmer Christophe Siccardi says it’s “in the spirit of a Nintendo game.”

Originally, Monkey Pirates wasn’t scheduled for any console – it was only planned for PC, Mac, and Linux. Siccardi explained to BeefJack that the team decided to take on systems such as Wii U late in development: “We contacted Nintendo near the end of production, as well as Sony and Microsoft.”

Nintendo fans can look forward to a “special mode” that utilizes the GamePad. Specific details on the feature are unknown at this time.

Shovel Knight will be appearing in Two Brothers, it has been confirmed. Ackk Studios, the team behind Two Brothers, shared the news in a Facebook post made earlier today.

It would appear that Shovel Knight’s appearance goes beyond a simple cameo. Two Brothers characters Roy and Bivare “will be getting help” from the main star of Yacht Club Games’ title.
