Turtle Tale makes a splash on Wii U this week

Having already leisurely swam to Nintendo 3DS, Saturnine Games have announced that Turtle Tale will see release on Wii U this week.

The colourful platformer will launch in North America and Europe, with pricing matching that of the game’s handheld counterpart – £2.49 (€2.99 / $2.99).

Those in Europe that have previously purchased the game in Europe can also enjoy a cross-buy discount, as long as they’re buying the Wii U version on the same Nintendo Network ID.

That knocks a third off the price, bringing it down to €1.99 for those wanting to double dip. Sadly this won’t be available to those in North America, due to Nintendo of America not having such Nintendo eShop mechanism in place yet – something that similarly affected SteamWorld Dig back in August.
