Just earlier this week, it was announced that the SteamWorld Collection would be coming to North America on 1st November. Not only would it offer up a chance to have both of the latest SteamWorld games in a physical disc, but up until now, that was also to be the first chance that North Americans would have at playing SteamWorld Heist on the Wii U. Fortunately, the digital version has finally gotten a release date nailed down in the region, and it's due out a couple weeks earlier.
Nintendo's website recently updated with the information, listing the game for a 20th October release. This lines right up with the usual Thursday store refresh, so it's just a matter of two weeks until we get to try it out in HD. We absolutely loved this game on either platform, but particularly praised the update visual experience in the home console version.
What do you think? Will you be picking this up? What did you think of the 3DS version? Share your thoughts in the comments below.

Wow this story is a couple of hours old and nobody has commented on it yet. I thought there would be some level of interest.
I'm really enjoying this game. Glad to be European!
@SLIGEACH_EIRE Probably because it's late in America and it's already out in Europe
well, I am in Europe, but with a USA Wii U ... and I will get getting this, especially thanks to the generous discount (25% for two weeks launch discount, --> actually 33% for me as I have Dig on my Wii U)
although, I am a bit tempted by cross-buy on PS4/Vita ...
I'm picking this up soon, heard too many things not to and I really like their attitude, passion and engagement with fans. I have Dig on Wii U & it was just great, really enjoyed it.
finally, torture's over... i'll pick it up day one!! ;D
Will definitely look into this. It looks a fun game but it might be awhile since I plan on getting Splatoon finally through a birthday offer from Nintendo for 30% off.
I got this on PS4 a few weeks back with a PS+ discount, but i really feel with the map on the Gamepad at all times that it will be a better experience, so I'm double dipping just as I did with Dig!
I'm tempted to get the physical version even though I already have Dig.
Maybe. The shine has worn off a bit for me. Maybe the discount deal will entice me then but as of now... wait and see.
I bet the week after this is out in North America is when they might reveal the NX.
@imageform Very true.
I can't wait, I loved Steamworld Dig and don't have a 3DS to play on, so this game will be awesome on my Wii U!
@msvt The game is definitely worth getting. I was surprised how enjoyable the game is, and I was already excited for the game before getting it.
@KoopaTheGamer
I'll check it out, thanks for the nudge.
