Dreadlocks shared some good news and bad news about the Wii U version of Dex via a Kickstarter update.

First, the studio said that it temporarily halted development on Wii U due to reassigning “human resources to more urgent tasks.” However, work on this edition will resume at the start of May. Additionally, Dex is still coming to Wii U before the end of 2017.

Dreadlocks wrote on Kickstarter:

“The development of WiiU version has stopped for a while because we had to re-assign our human resources to more urgent tasks. But it’s only temporary and works on WiiU will continue on beginning of May. We’re still aiming to release it this year.”

Pikmin ended up on the North American Wii U eShop several months ago. Now the game’s sequel is nearly here as well.

According to a listing on Nintendo’s website, Pikmin 2 will be released tomorrow in North America. To clarify: this is the New Play Control! version as opposed to the original GameCube game.

Here’s an overview from Nintendo’s site:

“Captain Olimar and his sidekick, Louie, travel to a strange alien world on a mission to pay an employer’s debt. Command squads of Pikmin to help locate valuable treasures, explore mysterious environments, and battle pesky enemies along the way. Strategy is key when choosing which Pikmin to deploy for any given task.”

Pikmin 2 will cost $19.99 on the Wii U eShop.

A bunch of new Wii U Virtual Console games showed up in Japan today. In addition to Langrisser: Hikari no Matsuei and Necromancer, which we heard about last week, four more are out now: Fire Fighting Idol, Janshi Suchie-Pai, City Connection, and Formation Z. Trailers for all of these games are below.

When we last heard about The Girl and the Robot, is was slated to end up on Wii U by the end of 2016. That didn’t happen, but this version of the game hasn’t been cancelled. It’s been submitted to Nintendo, so it shouldn’t be too long before The Girl and the Robot is published on the eShop.

As for Switch, a release on the new console might be in the cards. Flying Carpets Games wrote on Twitter that the team is “exploring” the platform.
