Vaccine is still coming to Wii U
Posted on 7 years ago by Fernando in News, Wii U eShop | 5 Comments
Indie developer Rainy Night Creations announced a few months ago that their new game, Vaccine, would be coming to Wii U as well as other platforms.
Today, Rainy Night Creations have posted on their Twitter account that they already have a date for Vaccine on Xbox One, PS4 and Steam. Unfortunately, the Wii U version failed lotcheck and they have to keep testing it.
The good news about this is that they won’t cancel Vaccine on Wii U regardless the situation, so it will probably be launching a month later than the others.
It was previously announced that Vaccine was slated for Q1 2017. Hopefully it will maintain that release window in Wii U.
And no, even though WiiU is the trickiest to develop for, it has the most expensive devkit and it's the less profitable, not gonna cancel it

RISE: Race The Future no longer in the works for Wii U, but VD-Dev still hoping to make a Switch version
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch eShop, Wii U eShop | 15 Comments
IronFall Invasion developer VD-Dev announced RISE: Race The Future for Switch and Wii U. Development is moving forward – despite the sad passing of the studio’s co-founder Fernando Velez.
Some platform changes have been made since the original announcement. For one thing, Wii U is now out of the picture. VD-Dev is also focusing on PC first, with other platforms to follow. VD-Dev still hopes to make a Switch version, but since the game is initially launching at the end of this year, we won’t be seeing it on a Nintendo platform until 2018.

SDK Spriter adding functionality to create platformer and turn-based battle levels
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 0 comments
HullBreach Studios still has plenty of plans for SDK Spriter. Some new free and paid content is in the works for the downloadable Wii U app.
First, a platformer level mode is coming to SDK Spriter at no extra cost. The indie studio is also making a turn-based battle mode which will be offered as paid DLC. Details on both are practically non-existent at the moment, though we’ll probably be receiving concrete information sooner rather than later.

Earthlock targeted for end of February / early March on Wii U, Switch is “an uncertainty”
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch eShop, Wii U eShop | 8 Comments
Earthlock: Festival of Magic remains on track for Wii U, and the developer is finishing up this release. The team is sorting through some last challenges at the moment. If everything is properly completed, Earthlock could be hitting Wii U at the end of February / start of March.
Now, what about Switch? SnowCastle Games is still interested in the platform, but writes in a Kickstarter update that “Nintendo has not given us a clear response on when we may expect to publish on their new console.”
The full status update for Earthlock on Nintendo platforms reads:
“The Wii U version is giving us some challenges, but we have made great progress. Only the last few scenes remain to be optimised. We hope to enter certification in about 2 weeks. It might be tight, but we are still optimistic about a Wii U launch around the end of February/ beginning of March. I’ll keep you posted once we have more precise dates.
Nintendo Switch is still an uncertainty. Nintendo has not given us a clear response on when we may expect to publish on their new console. Feel free to use social media to let Nintendo know that you want Earthlock on the Switch. (https://twitter.com/NintendoAmerica).”
