TicToc Games have recently announced that the Adventures of Pip will be arriving on the Wii U eShop in North America on June 4th instead of June 11th.

The game will be avilable for $14.99 USD.

I hope everyone is excited for the launch!

RCMADIAX, the one-man developer behind Block Drop U, has announced three new games for this summer.

In Color Bombs, players must collect a predetermined amount of “COLOR BOMBS” to complete each stage.

In Don’t Crash, quick reflexes are required to dodge incoming traffic by switching lanes.

In Pixel Slime U, players run through 40 levels trying to get the lowest score possible.

RCMADIAX also announced that Super Robot Mouse is in re-development.

We recently launched the Humble Nindie Bundle, a digital bundle for the Nintendo 3DS and Wii U systems. For many of you, the bundle is region-locked, and we apologize if the games are unavailable in your country.

One of the reasons we launched the first Humble Bundle was to bring indie games to more people. We agree that region-locking is not ideal. But without it, we may not have had this opportunity to promote these great indie games on dedicated video game platforms.

Our goal is to make games as universally accessible as can be. That’s why, while we strive to sell DRM-free games when possible, we also explore services like Steam, Origin, uPlay, and now the Nintendo eShop. These services allow us to offer more games at pay-what-you-want prices while raising more money for charity and reaching more gamers.

Your feedback helps us craft our bundles, so we thank you for your input and your continued support! We will continue to strive to be as inclusive as possible to all platforms, regions, and players in the future.

Humble Bundle is a site that developers use to provide game bundles where you pay what you want for them (usually starting at a $1 minimum payment). The amount you pay is then split between the devs, their chosen charity, and the humble bundle site itself.

When making your payment, you decide what percentage of it goes to which area. If you pay at least X amount of money, such as $10 for example, then you unlock extra games that you get to own as well. Also, paying more than the average price will usually unlock even more games for you to keep.

A group of independent game developers have partnered with Nintendo to create the first ever Humble Nindie Bundle for their fans. This is a first not only for Nintendo fans, but for console gamers everywhere. Normally Humble Bundle game deals have been for PC only and not console gamers.

The Charity that they have chosen to support is Code.org, which is a non-profit dedicated to making computer science available in more schools, along with increasing participation by women and underrepresented students of color.

If you pay at least $1 USD, you will get the following fun games: Guacamelee! Super Turbo Championship Edition, Woah Dave!, and Mighty Switch Force.

Paying more than the average price (~$9.25 right now) will also get you The Fall, OlliOlli, and Moon Chronicles – Episode 1.

If you pay at least $10, Stealth Inc 2 and SteamWorld Dig will be added to your gaming bundle on top of the games already listed above.

Buying all these great games separately would cost you over $80 USD. Heck, Guacamelee STCE by itself is over $10 on the Nintendo eShop, same with Stealth Inc 2.

Even though $10 currently unlocks all these titles for you to play, I’d encourage you to donate more if you can.

This incredible bundle ends Tuesday, June 9th, at 11am PST. So, go visit Humble Bundle and show your support!

Here’s our video review of Vector Assault by WizByte Games for the Nintendo Wii U.

Cat scientist research game MouseCraft will arrive for Wii U during Q3 2015, developer Crunching Koalas has revealed. The 2D puzzler released last year for Steam and PlayStation platforms, receiving praise for its colorful aesthetic and puzzle design, while seeing criticism for unchallenging difficulty.

Starring a crazy cat scientist conducting an experiment involving three blind mice, MouseCraft has been deemed as a cross between Tetris and Lemmings, and revolves around overcoming gaps by placing blocks for the sightless rodents to get from point A to B. As you progress, an epic tale will unfold around you, as the feline experiment conductor tries to unravel the enigma behind a mysterious mice-powered machine. Players will have to overcome various environmental obstacles and dangers, but at their own pace, as MouseCraft utilizes an Active Pause mechanic, which can freeze the game at any point. Increasing the speed is also an option. And it wouldn’t be the full puzzle package without allowing players to create their own maps, which they will be able to share to the community, naturally.

Here’s a look at the launch trailer for the game.

Last week we posted an article regarding the Sydney Hunter kickstarter being $10k away from getting a Wii U stretch goal.

After checking the campaign status today, Sydney Hunter is stating that it’s under $4k away from reaching the Wii U stretch goal!

With only 8 days to go on this campaign, there’s a good chance that the stretch goal can still be reached.

We hope you’ve groomed your axe and sharpened your beard, because Swords & Soldiers II has just released on Nintendo eShop for Wii U™!

We’ve been preparing for this day for almost three years and can’t wait for everybody to start playing!

To celebrate, we’ve just released our launch trailer.
