Dutch based Engine Software (you might recognize them from Terraria) has just announced their latest endeavor will be a collaboration with Norwegian developer Monkeybin. The collaboration will bring their highly popular social board game to the 3DS eshop.
The remake will be consistent with its original versions released for iOS, Android, and Facebook but with an added single player mode to better take advantage of being released on a dedicated handheld.
The 3DS version will also allow players to challenge their friends, strangers, and the game’s Bot “ADAMA” for more challenging gameplay.
Development is currently underway and Engine Software expects to be able to release information about price and release date soon.
Announced via their Twitter feed today;
EnjoyUp today announces that Darts Up will be released on Thursday 25th September 2014 on the Nintendo eShop for #WiiU in America.

A Conquest mode screenshot today, Sakurai talks a little bit about the patched in mode today:
Last week’s issue of Famitsu featured a new column from Super Smash Bros. director Masahiro Sakurai. The piece addressed a few questions that fans may have about the new games.
On the topic of deciding enemies for Smash Run in the 3DS version of Smash Bros., Sakurai said that the following ideas were considered in the selection process:
– serves well as a general enemy
– light processing of movement on 3DS (comes down to the system’s hardware)
– it is possible to create uniqueness for that enemy
– maintaining balance between big or small, weak or strong enemies
– reduction of the relative workload that is required
– comes from a series that is possible to choose
