Double Helix will consider porting new Strider to Wii U if there’s demand
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 5 Comments
Capcom announced a new Strider game during a Comic-Con panel this week. There was initially some confusion about the game coming to Wii U, as someone who was live-tweeting from the event said that it would indeed head to Nintendo’s console.
As it turns out, the official announcement confirmed that a Wii U version isn’t in the works. But that doesn’t mean Strider has been completely ruled out for the system. The same person who live-tweeted from Capcom’s presentation caught up with developer Double Helix following the panel and was told that the game could be ported over “if there’s a demand for it.”
For now, if you’re interested in the new Strider, you’ll need to settle for another platform – PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, Xbox One, Xbox 360, or PC.

Yesterday we heard that Shin’en intends to reveal its next Wii U games this fall. A tweet sent out by the studio a few days ago reconfirms this news, and also gives a vague release window for both titles.
Shin’en’s next game will be out later this year. The other will be available in 2014. Shin’em also appears to be considering a 3DS port for at least one of the projects.
Shin’en’s tweet is as follows:
@MrValtor We plan to reveal our new titles this autumn. 1 game is slated for end of the year and 1 for next year. Perhaps also a 3DS port.
— Shin'en Multimedia (@ShinenGames) July 10, 2013
Thanks to Mr. Valtor for the tip.

Kid Icarus could be heading to the Wii U Virtual Console next week. Nintendo’s website lists the game for a July 25 release, but all entries in the database are subject to change. Assuming it does come out, you’ll be able to make a purchase for $4.99.
On a slightly less interesting note, Angler’s Club: Ultimate Bass Fishing 3D will apparently be released on the 3DS eShop next Thursday as well for $29.95.
