- remake of 1000 Spikes
- enhaced version features new art, new graphics, new music and sound
- includes multiplayer mode
- supports 4 people local multiplayer
- this is on both Wii U and Nintendo 3DS
- expect a rather punishing game
- a trailer was shown that featured 20 different ways you can be killed
- hitting the eShop first
- due out this year on 3DS, aiming for the Wii U launch as well

The interesting thing is Nicalis is trying to be ready with the Wii U version for the system's launch. Can we hope for an up-and-running digital shop at Wii U's launch?

Another eShop game! 2012 is the year for eShop!

If the numerous Cave Story rehashes are anything to go by, this will hit both services by the end of 2013 at earliest.

I love hearing about all these devs, indie or otherwise looking to bring these games to the Wii U's digital shop. I think it'll turn out even better than the eShop...

Nicalis? We're not going to see this for another three years then.

Finally, a Nicalis game that isn't Cave Story.

if this comes out before december 31 2012 for 3DS, i'll be shocked. :O

Hopefully they have it done in time for the Wii U launch. Also, I'd be surprised if Nintendo didn't have the eShop up and running for Wii U on day one. They have learned a lot from the 3DS mistakes and won't make the same one again, which is why we will so a more reasonable price point as well.

i hope Nigoro give up on bringing La Mulana to the wii and bring it to the wii-u and eshop instead

Awesome to hear that this will be coming to the 3DS eShop and to the Wii"U" online store.

Here's a trailer for the version that hit XBLA last year.

It'd be nice if you can throw the game back and forth from the systems.

The Wii U on the TV <-> to the Wii U's tablet controller <-> to the 3DS <-> back to the Wii Wii on the TV

Given Nicalis' stellar track record, I doubt it. La-Mulana has been out in Japan for almost a year and we still don't have it plus we're still waiting on NightSky.
