Shovel Knight (Wii U eShop)

Shovel Knight looks freaking awesome.

i'm looking forward

hope this is out soon ish and "Two Brothers"

can't wait for this amazing game

Wow, with Citizens of Earth, Pier Solar HD and Shovel Knight there are three very interesting RPGs to come to the Wii U in march! Of those three, I am only sure to buy the first two though, Shovel Knight sounds a bit boring, but we'll see.

@Poki Shovel Knight is a platformer, not an RPG.

DAY 1 INSTA-BUY!

what day does this come out on wii u?

@dustin_g
Not until sometime (probably 4-6 months) after E3. With the Wii U's embarrassingly low install base, I wouldn't be surprised if this game were delayed indefinitely on Wii U.

@NodesforNoids
Won't happen that this is not coming to Nintendo hardware. It was funded on Kickstarter where you could acquire also Wii U and 3DS keys. Also they want to release the game on Steam, 3DS and Wii U at once (well at least during the same week). Currently they are into submission mode, and if one party rejects the code, than everybody else has to wait. Also they would need a release slot for that the same time and that isn't easy to pull off, too ;p

Taken from their last Kickstarter update

"FOR SHOVELRY! After near endless days of bleary-eyed internal testing and bug fixing, we opened this week by creating a gold master candidate of Shovel Knight! That means we have a potentially finished version of the game which is ready to go live!
Now we are in the submission and certification process for platform holders. That’s when external teams verify that the game works as expected. If everything checks out on their side, then they’ll prepare the game to go live on their digital storefront and get back to us with a true, solid release date.

But! If they uncover any issues that somehow slipped by our team then the game will “bounce” back to us for a fix! So… at this point, even the Yacht Club is playing the waiting game. "
