Apparently winter slows down Nintendo’s eShop like it does everything else. There aren’t many new releases this week but we have the update on those for you at any rate.
Unepic has been around since 2011, but today marks its debut on Wii U. It’s a platformer with RPG elements, evoking classic D&D and NES-style gameplay – or, in the words of Nintendo’s own blurb, “Unepic is a mixture of platform game, role game and joke that takes place in a huge castle of medieval fantasy. It is set in the eighty’s style, but completed with the most actual features.”
Ahem. As for F1 Race Stars Powered Up Edition, the Wii U edition of Codies’ cutesy karter adds four tracks, nine accessory packs, and motion and tilt controls for a GamePad steering wheel. Also, there’s Castlevania 2: Simon’s Quest to keep the Virtual Console ticking along.
Lastly but not leastly, Etrian Odyssey Untold is half-off at $20 until January 27.
