Wii U eShop

It was confirmed by developer Fuzzy Wuzzy Games that Armillo has been delayed due to submission complications within the eShop. To make up for this, they are offering an introductory price of $5.99 in the first 3 weeks after launch and  anticipate that they will be able to make an announcement regarding a global release soon.

The full press statement read:

Good news, our game is finished and we’re extremely excited to release it as soon as possible!

However, with Armillo being our first Nintendo eShop game, the submission process is taking longer than we originally anticipated. What this means is that we’ll miss our anticipated release date of May 12th. While we hate to delay, we expect to be able to make a formal announcement of the global launch date in coordination with Nintendo very soon.

Your patience will not go unrewarded, though! We’re happy to announce that Armillo will launch at the introductory price of $5.99 for the first 3 weeks of release! After the first 3 weeks, the game will return to the standard $7.99 price that we originally planned. This is our way of thanking our early supporters for buying the game early, and our way of apologizing for all of the delays.

When Adventures of Pip’s Kickstarter launched earlier this week, TicToc Games said the studio was aiming for Wii U support. Now that’s been made official.

Nintendo spoke with TicToc last night “to say everything is good to go and we can blast Wii U Support this morning.” If Adventures of Pip reaches its funding goal, we’ll be seeing it on the eShop.
