SteamWorld Dig is only planned for the 3DS eShop currently. However, developer Image & Form is still considering a Wii U version of the game.

CEO Brjann Sigurgeirsson commented on the possibility of SteamWorld Dig for Wii U and the console overall in an interview with Nintendo Difference. Sigurgeirsson also said that the team has ideas that may be a better fit for the system rather than simply bringing SteamWorld Dig over to the Wii U.

“We are still considering SteamWorld Dig for Wii U, but I also think we have other ideas that suit the Wii U better. The Wii U is a very powerful console, but I think Nintendo has a hard time explaining to consumers who should buy it and why. It becomes a paradox: if not enough people buy the console, developers are not going to flock to it – which means that it takes longer for the console to establish itself.”

Ittle Dew is out today on PC, but Nintendo gamers will likely be more interested in the now-confirmed Wii U version. The game will be available on the eShop later this year.

Ittle Dew may very well resonate with Zelda fans. Both feature adventure gameplay, dungeons, and puzzles. If you haven’t heard of Ittle Dew, watch the trailer above for a taste of the title.

Humid Games has cancelled its Kickstarter for Project Sweat. Without any sort of notice or campaign update, it’s unclear as to why the plug was pulled. However, it may have something to do with the small amount of backers.

Project Sweat could have landed on the Wii U eShop if the Kickstarter reached a stretch goal of £45,000. At the time of its cancellation, only £1,290 was raised.


The just-released 3DS eShop game Urban Trial Freestyle could make its way to Wii U. Paul Leskowicz, VP of Tate Multimedia, told NintendoWorldReport that the company is considering the possibility, though nothing is imminent. If Urban Trial Freestyle does end up on the Wii U eShop, it would “require new ideas and enhancements to fit Wii U specific features.”

Leskowicz said:

“We’re of course thinking about this but no final decision has been made yet. Bringing the game to Wii U will require new ideas and enhancements to fit Wii U specific features. We promise to keep you posted!”

Leskowicz also commented on whether there are plans for a sequel or expansion to Urban Trial Freestyle. Although the team is “working on some new stuff around trials mechanisms”, a sequel isn’t something we’ll be seeing in the very near future.

“We are working on some new stuff around trials mechanisms and would like to enhance the stunts factor of the game, but there is no rush with the sequel as there are still a lot of players that we hope will discover our game since the game is just releasing now on the 3DS.”
