I just got confirmation of the final release date for Quest of Dungeons on Wii U, it’s coming on September 29, both Europe and America.

…

-Does it have off-TV support?
Yes, you can play with the GamePad only.

-Does it support Wii U Pro Controller?
Yes.

-What does the GamePad screen shows?
There are 3 different ways you can play the game

Off-TV mode: You can play the game just on the GamePad.
TV-Only: In this mode everything is on the TV, just like the PC version, and you can play with either Wii U Pro Controller or GamePad
Mixed: GamePad shows a Minimap and touch Inventory (video below)
I think this covers most ways people enjoy using when playing on their Wii U.

…

As I mentioned before, the game will have cross-buy, so if you buy the Wii U version on September 29, when the Nintendo 3DS version gets released you will get it for free if you use the same NNID. So don’t feel shy to buy it, because you won’t have to choose one or another version.

VANCOUVER, B.C., Aug. 9, 2016 – Everyone deserves to have a little fun before back-to-school season begins – and this applies to both kids and their parents. August 19 marks the debut of a new Mario-themed New Nintendo 3DS system that comes with the Super Mario 3D Land game pre-installed at the low suggested retail price of only $199.99. Starting on Aug. 26, Nintendo rolls out a stellar set of offers for both Wii U and Nintendo 3DS, including some of Nintendo’s biggest hits dropping to a suggested retail price of $29.99 each, like Animal Crossing: New Leaf and The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker HD. And starting on Sept. 9, five convenient bundles each packed with a select Wii U game and an amiibo figure will be available. All of these great deals make getting ready for school a much more entertaining (and affordable) process.

“These back-to-school deals are some of the best and most varied we have ever offered,” said Pierre-Paul Trepanier, Nintendo of Canada’s General Manager and Senior Director. “Now is clearly the best time to get started on your essential Nintendo game collection.”

Super Mario 3D Land Edition New Nintendo 3DS: On Aug. 19 , a New Nintendo 3DS bundle that includes the system, the wildly fun Super Mario 3D Land game pre-installed and two extra interchangeable Mario-themed cover plates (one inspired by Mario and one featuring 8-bit renditions of classic Nintendo characters) will go on sale at a low suggested retail price of $199.99. New Nintendo 3DS is more compact than New Nintendo 3DS XL and also sports removable cover plates that let you customize the system’s look. New Nintendo 3DS is one of the most versatile video game systems out there, and this price (with an included game!) really can’t be beat. The suggested retail price is $40 less than the suggested retail price of any New Nintendo 3DS bundle previously offered.

Great Games for Under $30: On Aug. 26, some of Nintendo’s most popular and premium Wii U and Nintendo 3DS games are joining the Nintendo Selects honor roll of games sold at a suggested retail price of only $29.99. The list of games being added to the Nintendo Selects collection is as follows:

This is in addition to the dozens of Nintendo Selects games already available, from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D for Nintendo 3DS to Super Mario 3D World for Wii U. Check out the other Nintendo Selects games at http://www.nintendo.com/en_CA/nintendo-selects.

Wii U Games + amiibo Bundles: Starting on Sept. 9, select Wii U games will be packaged with specific amiibo at a suggested retail price of only $49.99 each. These bundles are a great way for players to be introduced to the world of Nintendo’s amiibo figures (and to have something to talk about with friends on the school bus). When tapped to the Wii U GamePad controller, each of the amiibo figures included in the bundles will unlock something special in its respective game. The bundles include:

Nintendo 2DS + Mario Kart 7 for a Suggested Retail Price of Only $109.99: Available now, the affordable and kid-friendly portable Nintendo 2DS system is ideal for parents looking to purchase a Nintendo system for their youngest gamers (and star students!) The system can play nearly every Nintendo 3DS game in 2D, is available at a suggested retail price of only $109.99 and specifically marked packages of the system include the hit Mario Kart 7 racing game, pre-installed. Combining this great package with one of the newly available Nintendo Selects games for Nintendo 3DS gives you a new Nintendo system and two awesome games – all for the great value of less than $140.
