Wii U eShop

Hucast Games will arrive on the Wii U eShop on February 28, Hucast Games announced today. We previously heard last week that it would be out sometime this month.

Ghost Blade HD’s release date applies to both North America and Europe. It’ll cost $9.99 / €8.99.

Here’s a brief overview:

“Ghost Blade HD is an intense bullet-hell shoot ’em up game, with satisfying and addictive score-based gameplay, with its inspiration going back to the shooting games of the 1990s era, Ghost Blade HD ties old memories to current tones and techniques. Designed with a modern graphic style and special effects, Ghost Blade HD also features an awesome 2-player and TATE mode! Ghost Blade HD is easy to learn, hard to master.”

About 25 minutes of footage from the Wii U version of Plantera is now available to watch on YouTube. You can check it out below.

In the past, the US eShop hasn’t allowed for the use of non-American credit and debit cards. It looks like that just changed recently, however. These payment options are now fully compatible.

We should note that only the 3DS has been tested so far. There really wouldn’t be much of a reason for the restriction to still be in place on Wii U though. If we hear anything otherwise, we’ll be sure to let you know.
