Sneaky Ninja is a 2D stealth platformer. Players can choose from an arsenal of tools and magical powers to fight enemies or stay hidden in the shadows.

Axiom Verge would seem like the perfect fit on Wii U. The action-adventure game, which launches on PlayStation 4 later this month and other platforms down the line, is a true Metroidvania experience.
The team behind Axiom Verge does have interest in bringing Axiom Verge to Wii U. Dan Adelman, who is handling business and PR for the title, told NintendoWorldReport:
We obviously would love to bring it to Nintendo platforms at some point and we’re looking at ways we might want to do that. Because of some technical reasons and the way the game was designed, it will take a little bit of time to get it ported over, so we’re looking into what that will cost us and how long it will take but that’s something we definitely are considering.
The main issue surrounding a possible Axiom Verge Wii U port is the console’s incompatibility with MonoGame development software. We had heard towards the end of 2013 that the tool was coming to Wii U, but that actually hasn’t happened after all. In order to make a Wii U version of Axiom Verge possible, MonoGame needs to be supported on Wii U, or the title would need to be ported to C++.
Atlus has shared a bunch of information regarding SpotPass and StreetPass support in Devil Survivor 2: Record Breaker. All of the details are posted below, and you can find a new round of screenshots above.
Demon summoners in Devil Survivor 2 will have some wireless advantages once the game launches. Thanks to the Nintendo 3DS system’s SpotPass and StreetPass features, players will be able to unlock and advance their demons in new ways!
SpotPass
We’ll have several waves of SpotPass content rolling out once the game launches (schedule still TBD), but the immediate advantage will be a whole ton of new demons for players to fuse. So if you were looking for your precious Tyrant Lucifer Frost or Wilder Catoblepas, they’ll be rolling out to players via SpotPass. Another bonus going out via SpotPass will be some skill add-ons. One of the hallmarks of the Devil Summoner series is cracking skills that are assigned from a communal skill pool, meaning players can’t use the same skill on more than one character. Via SpotPass, players will be able to get a helpful magic skill, a powerful normal skill, and a recommended physical skill added to their skill pool. But that’s all we’re telling you about them!
Jorg Winterstein’s mobile game Bloo Kid 2 is currently being ported over to the 3DS. At the moment, a release date has not been determined.
Bloo Kid 2 is a 2D platformer with five worlds (nine levels in each), boss battles, and chiptune music. You can watch a trailer above.
Theatrhythm Dragon Quest’s demo is out now in Japan, and we’ve been hearing that it doesn’t support stereoscopic 3D. This will apply to the final game as well, according to Nintendo’s website.
This is the first Theatrhythm to not make use of 3D. Theatrhythm Final Fantasy and Theatrhythm Final Fantasy: Curtain Call both had support for the feature.
F-Zero: GP Legend is coming to the North American Wii U Virtual Console tomorrow, Nintendo’s website confirms. The game was just rated by the ESRB yesterday, which hinted at an upcoming release.
F-Zero: GP Legend will be available for $6.99 when it launches on the eShop.
An update for Paper Monsters Recut has gone live in Europe. The patch should be coming to North America soon, and we’ll update this post when that happens. Developer Mobot Studios says the update mainly addresses bugs.
