On Twitter a little while ago, Saturnine Games shared an update about the status of Turtle Tale.
The 3DS version of the game has now been approved by Nintendo of America. It’s still awaiting approval in Europe though.
Saturnine is also continuing development of Turtle Tale on Wii U, which is “progressing well.” It could be submitted to lot check by the end of the month.
Saturnine hopes to see Turtle Tale out in mid/late May. Pricing will be under $5.
NOA approved Turtle Tale for 3DS. Now NCL has to approve it as well. We're hoping to hear from NOE any day now.

Turtle Tale for Wii U is progressing well. No promises, but the end of the month feels like a reasonable target for submitting to lot check.

@kitroplious Nothing concrete yet,but it's looking like Mid/Late May. Price will be under $5. Haven't committed to an exact price yet.

Turtle Tale now planned for Wii U as well
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 1 Comment
In addition to 3DS, Turtle Tale is now slated for Wii U. Developer Saturnine Games sent the 3DS version off recently and then began experimenting with Wii U. The console version “is coming along very quickly”, though a release date is a long ways off.
Saturnine Games wrote on Twitter today:
After sending Turtle Tale off to 3DS lot check, it seemed like a good time to look into Wii U. pic.twitter.com/p1pEKt51nI

It's still too early to guess at a release date, but the WIi U version of Turtle Tale is coming along very quickly.
— Saturnine Games (@SaturnineGames) March 14, 2014
Saturnine Games’ Edward Di Geronimo also tweeted out some positive thoughts about working with Wii U:
Early thoughts on Wii U dev… the system is really, really easy to develop for. Took about a week to get the 3DS game running on it.
— Edward Di Geronimo (@EdDiGeronimo) March 14, 2014
Also rather impressed with the architecture of the Wii U. No obvious trouble spots. Seems very well balanced.
— Edward Di Geronimo (@EdDiGeronimo) March 14, 2014
My gut says I'll focus on 3DS more on future games, but with how easy porting to Wii U was, I'll almost certainly hit both platforms.
— Edward Di Geronimo (@EdDiGeronimo) March 14, 2014
@pxlplz It's not THAT fast! I think you can play the entire game on Wii U now, but lotcheck would rip it to shreds…

Remember Saturnine Games’ Turtle Tale? We heard about the 2D platformer nearly a year ago, but there hasn’t been much news since.
However, Saturnine recently confirmed to NintendoWorldReport that the game is launching on the eShop sometime this spring. The studio has shared a few new screenshots as well – check them out in the gallery above.
