God I hope I made it clear this is only referring to Japan so people don't think Zangeki is coming westward.

http://www.gonintendo.com/s/247528-japan-next-week-s-wii-u-3ds-eshop-releases

Upcoming Wii DL games for Japan - Zangeki no Reginleiv (today), Pandora's Tower (March 4) and Sin & Punishment 2 (March 25)

No pricing mentioned at the moment, but with Kirby's Return to Dream Land/Kirby Adventure Wii being normal price at 20 Euro in EU, I don't see a discount happening in Japan either for now.

Zangeki to my knowledge IS new, it wasn't in the list of games mentioned in the Direct.

Trailers:

Nice to see Zangeki get some exposure even if it's only a little. Game was a blast.

 

[Mockingbird]

FFFFFFFFF!!!!!! U.S. Release possible? Please say it is so!!!

I think it was mentioned during the Direct. Sorry.

 

[Mockingbird]

Wait, are the online functions enabled in this port?

 

[Richie]

Glad to see this continue.

They REALLY need to go back to half the price for the first week, thought. Would buy everything, even double dip.

 

[Drilbit777]

I'm really hoping we get FE Radiant Dawn and Xenoblade Chronicles for Eshop too. Those games are almost impossible to find for decent prices.

 

[Tye The Czar]

Bring us Zangeki, Nintendo. NOW.

 

[SmugFox]

Zangeki is so much fun to play! I was very sad that it never got a western release. There is a translation patch for it though.

 

[Esque7]

They probably should have removed the WiFi bits from the trailers...
Hopefully Pandora's Tower releases stateside soon, never got around to picking it up.

 

[foxuzamaki]

Please nintendo, I've been wanting to play. Zengeki for years.

Highly doubt it considering Nintendo WiFi Connection is now defunct.

 

[Garou]

The games are even cheaper on Amazon.co.jp (1700Yen).
Just bought Reginleiv, Amazon auto-forwarded me to the Nintendo Network-site where I could directly redeem the key, now it should be already downloading on my Wii U at home without me touching the system. Feels good man!

I wonder if the Wii U version means the game doesn't run at 1 FPS during highly crowded sections anymore.

 

[sixteen-bit]

Reginleiv is so good.

Applied to NA's Wii games price of $20, that'd make approximately $13.40. I hope they go the extra mile and squish those almost four dollars...but they're likely gonna leave it at $15.

Hell, they may not even do a discount to Kirby at all. I can see their logic being "Rainbow Curse releases at $40, so by putting this at $20, we can promote fans getting 2 whole games for the price of one!!". Prove me dead wrong, NA.

I wonder if the Wii U version means the game doesn't run at 1 FPS during highly crowded sections anymore.

AFAIK it's running these off Wii Mode (a similar situation to the GBA games 3DS ambassadors have), so the games would play exactly the same.

Yeah but the trailer posted today suggest otherwise. Granted it's just cut together footage from 2010.

Huh...Even so you'd think they'd be savvy enough not to promote extinct features.

 

[Orniletter]

I hope we'll get this and Captain Rainbow in the west.

They look so cool.
