Wii U eShop

Nintendo released a new video today showcasing a few European digital game highlights from February 2017. You can watch it below.

Swap Fire normally costs $14.99 on the North American Wii U eShop. Either the developer is feeling extra generous, or someone made an error as the game is currently showing as free.

Even if you’re not interested in Swap Fire, it might be worth “purchasing” regardless. We’re hearing that it’s giving users 20 Gold Points on My Nintendo.

You can order Swap Fire from Nintendo’s website here. It should probably be up on the eShop itself as well.

Thanks to Jake for the tip.

Teslagrad developer Rain Games has almost finished up its new game World to the West. Today, it was announced that the game is coming to Wii U as originally promised on May 5. It’ll cost $29.99 / €29.99. English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Norwegian, Chinese, Dutch, Arab and Polish are all supported.

Here’s an overview:

“World to the West is a standalone followup of Teslagrad, the indie hit that conquered the hearts of many puzzle-lovers three years ago. A 3D action adventure with a cartoony art style, inspired by those light-hearted RPGs from our past that made us face the challenges with a smile. A vast world of blue skies and dark caves awaits you, as you try to unveil the mysteries of an ancient prophecy. You’ll join four characters in this journey: Lumina the Teslamancer, Knaus the underdog, Miss Teri the treasure hunter and the gloriously mustachioed strongman, Lord Clonington, each one with their own storyline and abilities.”

And a trailer:

World to the West will be at EGX Rezzed, London, between March 30 and April 1.
