Mobot Studios revealed the mini action-platformer “Super Kid Ninja” for iOS today. We asked the developer if a Wii U version is in store as well.

Mobot said in response:

So it seems that Wii U isn’t getting Super Kid Ninja, but we’ll be seeing this interesting 3D mini platformer instead. That works for me!

The Pinball Arcade is coming to the New 3DS, according to lead designer Bobby King. King told Family Gamer TV that the team now has “the processing power with the New 3DS to publish all the tables there”, and the goal is to launch it this year.

The Wii U version of Pinball Arcade – promised way back in 2012 – may also still be in the works, based on comments from King.

You can listen to what was said about The Pinball Arcade for New 3DS and Wii U in the video above.

Curve Digital has yet another game planned for Wii U. The Swindle, a steampunk heist game developed by Size Five Games, will be released on the console (and other platforms) later this year.

Here’s the official overview:

The Swindle is a mixture of platform, action and stealth gameplay. Players will be breaking into buildings, hacking their systems, stealing their cash and then charging to the nearest exit to the sound of alarms and breaking glass. The buildings and levels you’ll be exploring are all procedurally-generated, and players will be able to upgrade their thief with new skills and tools after every job allowing them to take on bigger buildings with more elaborate security.

The Swindle was first announced for PC back in 2011, and ended up being cancelled since Size Five Games owner Dan Marshall was unable to make the various elements hold together in a way he was pleased with. However, after fans expressed their disappointment, it was resurrected last October. This new version has been completely rebuilt and focuses on procedurally-generated thieves and levels.

Check out a trailer for The Swindle below.
