Towards the end of 2013, Two Tribes asked if fans would be interested in seeing Toki Tori 1 on 3DS. The studio has posted several hints on its Twitter account about the possibility since then, and it looks like we now have a confirmation that it’s happening.
Based on a Twitter message earlier month, we seem to have solid confirmation that Toki Tori 1 is coming to the 3DS. Two Tribes and Engine Software are teaming up for the release. As it turns out, it’s the first collaboration between the two companies in over twenty years.
In other news, we made some good progress on Toki Tori 1 3DS today, together with Ivo from @EngineSoftware!

Affordable Space Adventures will take up just over 1GB of space. Note that this is specific to Europe, but the North American download should clock in at a very similar amount.
Affordable Space Adventures launches for the Wii U eShop on April 9.
A pair of classic games have been rated in Australia. Hogan’s Alley and Dig Dug II both entered the database today. Could these two titles be making their way to the Wii U Virtual Console soon? As always, we’ll let you know if we hear anything!
Nicalis is finishing up a patch for 1001 Spikes that will add off-TV play to the game’s Wii U version. It’s unclear when exactly the update will be ready, but it should be submitted to Nintendo of America next month.
Nicalis’ Tyrone Rodriguez wrote on Twitter earlier this week:

Update: Bumped to the top, as the listing has been pulled. Was it discovered too early? Or was it a mistake?
Azure Striker Gunvolt appears to finally be coming to Europe next week, based on a listing from the eShop. The game will apparently arrive on April 4 for €12.99.
This date hasn’t been officially confirmed just yet, but eShop listings tend to be spot on these days. We’ll let you know if/when an announcement is made.
Walmart is now offering a way to obtain eShop credit via email. You can purchase values of $10, $20, $35, or $50.
This is a pretty notable move on Walmart’s part. In the past, the only way to receive eShop credit was by using your credit card on the eShop or by buying a points card. Code delivery via email is a convenient option to have!
All eShop credit from Walmart can be ordered here.
Pokemon Shuffle version 1.1.6 is now available. Essentially, it’s a bug fix. Those who won the Lucarionite event but didn’t receive a Jewel should now find that this has been corrected.
