Machete Brawl heading to Wii U later this year
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 3 Comments
q-bit Games and Sleepy Sheepy have provided Nintendo Everything with a first look at their new indie project, “Machete Brawl”.
The title will be released on Wii U and PC later this year. It acts as a follow-up to the original Machete, a game that hit PC, Mac, and Linux just a few months ago.
Machete Brawl begins as the family of Groz’g Island sets up a tournament to win the Mighty Golden Carrot Trophy. You’ll be able to play as one of the family members to fight your way to the trophy through different stages, including a mushroom cave and a castle.
Weapons, bonuses, and maluses will all be a part of the mix, and each stage will have its own enemies and power-ups.
On Wii U, Machete Brawl will offer up to 5-player multiplayer with asymmetrical gameplay on the GamePad. You can also expect fast-paced multiplayer fighting action with jet-packs and carrot guns.
q-bit says creating the game for Wii U “was a no-brainer for us since Nintendo is our first love.”

Fuzzy Wuzzy Games has sent out a precheck version of Armillo to Nintendo. It’s another step towards the game’s release, which is expected to take place next month.
Fuzzy Wuzzy shared the status update on Twitter a few moments ago, while also noting that Miiverse integration will likely be added to the game in a future update.
Below are all of the relevant tweets:
Recently sent our precheck build to Nintendo (both NA and EU). Getting closer to release.

Lots of nice changes have gotten in the past month, so I'd say the delay is a good thing. Now it's time to push for release.

Only feature that wasn't able to get in is Miiverse integration – couldn't figure out the best way to put that in.
— Fuzzy Wuzzy Games (@FuzzyWuzzyGames) April 10, 2014
But I hope to add that in for a future update.
