Tri-Strip hitting the North American Wii U eShop next week
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 2 Comments
Form Up Studios and Sc0tt Games are bringing out a new “retro-themed single-player puzzle game” for the Wii U eShop next week called Tri-Strip.
Below is a brief overview of the title:
It’s a retro-themed single-player puzzle game, much in the style of 90?s era puzzle games. Score points by arranging rows of triangular tiles into quads. Your score multiplies by however many quads you can create in a single move. Enjoy strategic gameplay at a fast pace in the Arcade mode. Push yourself to the limit in the five Challenge modes. Weep for mercy in the time-based challenges of the Super-Hardcore mode!
Tri-Strip will be available on February 5 for $1.99. Check out a trailer below.

Ninja Pig Studios decides against publishing Jumpy Cat on the Wii U eShop
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 4 Comments
Jumpy Cat will no longer be coming to the eShop. Ninja Pig Studios, the game’s publisher, has confirmed that there are no longer plans to publish the game.
Ninja Pig Studios’ Jordan Schuetz wrote on Twitter last week:
@photonstorm thanks for the advice. The game won't be published so it's irrelevant, but thanks for the heads up. Didn't know about that.
