Nintendo Everything

Affordable Space Adventures’ launch is just on the horizon. We’ll be seeing the game on April 9, but KnapNok Games has shared with us another screenshot from the title to tide you over until then.

View the new image above. We also have an official description of the action below.

Not all the dangers of space come from artifacts trying to detect and destroy you. Sometimes peril comes from things far more organic, like these dark plants which will reach out to you in an attempt to wrap themselves around your ship, drag you over to their base and… And that’s pretty much it. What these plants do to you afterwards is a mystery, but certainly nothing good. So stay away from them as much as possible. Or… perhaps you have something that might scare them off?

Rodea: The Sky Soldier wasn’t the only big Famitsu review this week. The magazine also brought us the first verdict for Theatrhythm Dragon Quest, which is out now in Japan.

So how’d Famitsu’s four different reviewers feel about the game? They handed out scores of 10, 8, 9, and 8 for a total of 35 out of 40. For a full translation of Famitsu’s review, head on below.

Dot Arcade hit the North American Wii U eShop last Thursday, but I noticed that no one posted about the game’s file size. Let’s fix that now! Dot Arcade weighs in at about 101MB.

psyscrolr is launching on the North American Wii U eShop next week, and it will be fairly inexpensive. The game will set you back just $3.99.

Here’s the official overview:

psyscrolr is a unique platformer with Wii U GamePad Touch Screen elements. In this title, you will play the Scrolr, a boy who has inherited a presence from another world, which gives him psychic powers that he neither wanted nor dreamed of. In the game, you will be helped by the voice of his powers in his head, narrating what is happening as well as assisting in combat. Utilize new mechanics to pull, push, and destroy any obstacle in your way. Enjoy a hub-based layout where you can replay the levels with no penalty for death!
