Fuzzy Wuzzy Games Is Rolling Armillo Onto The Wii U eShop
Posted by Damien McFerran
Former XNA title now heading to Nintendo's machine
Fuzzy Wuzzy Games has exclusively revealed to us that it is bringing Armillo to the Wii U eShop this year.
The game was previously in development for the XNA platform with a view to release on Xbox Live Arcade, but Fuzzy Wuzzy Games has now shifted focus to the Wii U, having created a very successful working relationship with Nintendo.
Armillo mixes together elements of Marble Madness and Super Mario Galaxy to create a unique experience, and already looks like being a very interesting title indeed.
We've got an exclusive interview with the developers going up on the site soon, so keep your eyes peeled.

Cool Nintendo seems to be working well with indies.
Makes me wonder what Microsoft and Sony plan to do next gen.

Fun Fact: Armadillos are common carriers of leprosy, and can infect humans who come into contact with them or eat armadillo meat!

Whoa, this looks cool! Definitely unique. Looks like It'd be better suited to 3DS, but this is now on my radar. Looks fun.

This would look amazing on the 3DS. Wish it were slated for both Wii U and the handheld.
I always thought Marble Madness would be a great 3D Classics type of game (yes, I know it's not made by Nintendo so it wouldn't happen), but this would definitely fit the bill.

Never heard of it, but I'll take anything I can get on the Wii U eshop right now.
And after watching the video, it's looking pretty good.

@harman, Tetrisphere had some sweet tunes. Picked it up used a few years ago. Almost like the predecessor to ThruSpace/Ketzal's Corridors, in a way...?

looks like a mixture of super mario galaxy and marble madness with a touch of 3D sonic as well but it's very inventive and original.
