Posted on 10 years ago by Patrick(@Patricklous) in 3DS eShop, News, Wii U eShop | 0 comments
Natsume confirmed on Twitter that the fast-paced NES sidescroller Shadow of the Ninja will release on the US 3DS and Wii U Virtual Console in early 2015. Known in Europe as “Blue Shadow”, the game is already available on the Wii Virtual Console, but it’ll be nice to have it on the other two platforms. No, the in-game graphics don’t look anything like the box art pictured above.

Giana Sisters: Twisted Dreams GamePad sound patch releasing in North America next month
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 1 Comment
North American gamers have been waiting quite some time for Black Forest Games to release the GamePad sound patch for Giana Sisters: Twisted Dreams. Thankfully, it appears that the update will be available in January.
Black Forest Games told Nintendo Life:
This is an issue of the US version where Nintendo US didn’t accepted the patch we did while Nintendo Europe did. We just got the info that Nintendo US is already testing our new patch, so January is a safe bet for this being fixed.
Once Giana Sisters: Twisted Dreams’ patch is released, players will be able to hear sound from the GamePad’s speaker.
