Wii U eShop

Mini Mario & Friends amiibo Challenge was made available to consumers in Japan starting this week. If you purchase a figure, you can receive a code to download the game on Wii U and 3DS. We finally have some extensive footage – check it out below.

Juicy Beast said earlier this month that the studio was disappointed by the sales of Toto Temple Deluxe. A few days ago, the company shared some concrete data.

Toto Temple Deluxe has sold roughly 6,000 copies across all platforms. You can see a breakdown of sales by platform above, which seems to show that the Wii U version outperformed the likes of Steam and Xbox One. It’s also fairly close to the PlayStation 4 edition.

Juicy Beast hopes that Toto Temple Deluxe will “benefit from the long tail eventually”.

When a new game comes out – be it a completely new title or something like a Virtual Console release – its related community opens on Miiverse. It’s here where users are usually able to share screenshots of games. With one classic game that just hit Wii U though, this isn’t possible.

Final Fantasy Tactics Advance made its way to the Wii U Virtual Console this week. Users, however, have been mentioning in the community that posting screenshots isn’t possible. We don’t know why this is, but I imagine Square Enix must have some reason!

With Word Puzzles by POWGI hitting Wii U and 3DS in Europe this week, Lightwood Games put together a video explaining how amiibo works in the game. Check it out below.

Noowanda intends to update Discovery, the studio’s block building game on the Wii U eShop. Several features are already lined up for version 2.2, including off-TV in single-player, a third-person view, and more. Other potential features like managing materials on the GamePad, block coloring, and more animals are also under consideration.

Players can share feedback about what they want to see from Discovery over on Miiverse. It sounds like Noowanda will be looking at all comments.


Here’s a look at the upcoming update:
