Update: Here’s a trailer:

It’s a bit unclear if Europe will have Poncho on the same day. We’ll let you know if we find out!


Rising Star Games and Delve Interactive originally launched Poncho last year. We haven’t heard much about the status of the Wii U version, but we should be seeing it very soon.

The eShop now lists the game for August 18 in North America. When it’s ready, it will cost $9.99.

We’ve attached an overview and some screenshots from the eShop listing below.

A robot, a poncho and a journey of discovery! Make your way through this world of pixelated parallax platforming to solve the ultimate puzzle: who is Poncho?

The world is ruined; mankind is gone and all that remains are robots. But for Poncho, the adventure is just beginning! Explore an open world full of colorful characters, leaping between parallax layers to overcome obstacles and solve puzzles. Can you make it to the Red Tower, meet your Maker and ultimately save humanity?

A 2D world with 3D thinking! Use brains as well as platforming skill, moving back and forth through Poncho’s world as well as left and right to progress.

Discover new challenges around every corner: platforms that move when you do, areas that switch from 3D to 2D and back again, shifting walls, seemingly impossible ascents and much more!

Gorgeous pixel graphics mix with clever gameplay and a catchy soundtrack to create a retro-style experience that’s truly unique!

Tadpole Treble will be on the North American Wii U eShop on Thursday. Take a look at some footage in the video below.

Earlier this year, Rain Games revealed World to the West. It’s the newest project from the same team behind Teslagrad, and this one’s actually set in the same universe.

World to the West has players going on an adventure as they assume the role of four characters: “Lumina the Teslamancer, Knaus the orphan, Miss Teri the mind bender and the gloriously mustachioed strongman, Lord Clonington”. You’ll explore various environments such as jungles, tundras, and the mysteries of an ancient prophecy.

We weren’t sure at the time which platforms World to the West would be on, but Wii U is on the developer’s radar. In fact, Nintendo will be showing an early build of the title at Gamescom 2016 in just a couple of weeks. That bit of news was hidden within the big N’s plans for the expo.

Here’s a teaser:

Overworld Defender Remix was added to the North American Wii U eShop this past Thursday. The video below has a few minutes of footage showing what the game has to offer.

In North America and Europe, Nintendo has had more and more of an indie presence over the past few years. But in Japan, you don’t really hear too much about what’s happening there.

There’s a reason for that. Until recently, Nintendo was pretty closed off in Japan. That’s starting to change with the introduction of the Nintendo Developer Portal. It’s now easier than ever for indie developers to put their games on Nintendo systems regardless of region.

In a recent issue of Famitsu, the magazine spoke with Nintendo about its indie initivates in Japan during a brief interview. Here’s a translation between the two sides:

Indie developer Chris McFarland is bringing his “2D indie action roguelike-inspired platformer” to Wii U. Having come out on other platforms last year, it’ll now head to the eShop on September 1 in North America, Mexico, and Brazil.

You can find a trailer for Tallowmere below. We’ve also included a bunch of gameplay information after the break.
