Indiespelet Axiom Verge kommer till Wii U, detta bekräftar Tom Happ (utvecklaren) själv på sin hemsida. Spelet finns till Playstation 4 och PS Vita men är även på väg till Xbox One. Axiom Verge är ett såkallat metrovania-spel och dess inspirationskällor kommer från just klassiska Nintendospel. Så här skriver han om att släppa sitt spel på Wii U:
"I've been waiting a long time to be able to say this: Axiom Verge will be coming to Wii U on September 1 in both the NOA and NOE regions!
When I first announced Axiom Verge about 4 years ago, there was tremendous excitement from Nintendo fans who had been waiting for years for a true 2D Metroid-style action/adventure/exploration game. Because of some technical issues, however, I wasn't able to launch it on a Nintendo platform straight away. Some people were understandably upset:
The Nintendo games of my childhood are what inspired me to make Axiom Verge. Metroid is probably one of the more obvious influences, but it's actually a lot more than that. Axiom Verge actually started out as an exercise in game design. I wanted to deconstruct my favorite games from my youth and see what would happen if I took the best elements of each and put them together. The Bionic Commando's grapple hook and Rygar's Yo-Yo in the setting of Blaster Master and Shatterhand. I wanted to see what would fit together - and just as importantly what wouldn't work."
