Shakedown: Hawaii coming to Wii and Wii U

Shakedown: Hawaii is currently available on Switch and 3DS. Vblank Entertainment isn’t stopping its support for Nintendo systems there, however, as the studio has revealed it’s bringing the game to Wii and Wii U as well. Here are all of the relevant details: The Wii and Wii U versions include...

Shakedown: Hawaii - Coming to Wii and Wii U | Vblank Entertainment Inc.

The Wii and Wii U versions include all of the currently released content and feature updates, including the Mogul Update, the Full Tank Update, and the many other little tweaks, improvements and optimizations that went into the game post-launch.

Both versions will also allow you to experience the game in the most retro way possible… in 4:3 on your old CRT televisions… and in my opinion, it looks glorious!

The Wii version supports both 50hz and 60hz, and both NTSC and PAL output. It supports the Wii Remote (with shake!), Wii Classic Controller, Wii Classic Controller Pro, and GameCube Controller. I took special care to ensure it parallels the experience of the more powerful platforms, and further optimized it to fit entirely into the Wii system memory. This means that you won't experience any disc load times during gameplay. Once the game boots, you're in!

The Wii U version supports both SD and HD, 4:3 and 16:9. You can play it with the Wii U GamePad, Wii U Pro Controller, Wii Remote, Wii Classic Controller, or Wii Classic Controller Pro. It can be played entirely on the GamePad (with touch!), or on the TV from the comfort of your couch.

Ooh.. I'd buy a Wii U version, but probably wouldn't find... not because of is a Wii U game, but because Indie games in physical media is always so limited (and stores here import so little) :\

Once again, no wonder he needed the EGS cash when he is busy porting the game to non-profitable platforms. He really wants all of his games to be on every single platform huh. Really cool that he got to make the last retail Wii game though.

this is 100% publicity and they care more about the articles being wrote about how it's coming to Wii than how much it actually sells.

Awesome, I wish more indies do the same and release on Wii U if possible, the system deserves more quality games.
I hope I can get the physical Wii U version!

Wasn't the Just Dance team pretty confident they were the last release?

Just Dance 2021 coming to Wii to spite Shakedown Hawaii devs.

this kinda reminds me of that Mega Drive / Genesis RPG that released like 5 years ago and got a working cartridge, Pier Solar.

if i'm not mistaken, with this release wii breaks ps2's record for longest period of official releases (2000-2013). unofficial releases still do come out for some retro systems tho.

Not Every - Quote from Dualshockers
Brain simply told me that "It's possible in the future, but I don't have Xbox one dev kits or a port [in the works]." It's also worth noting that Retro City Rampage never made its way to Xbox One despite hitting Xbox 360 in 2013, so Xbox One clearly isn't a priority system for Vblank Entertainment to support. If that answer's a bit too cut and dry for you, Brian also discussed what fueled this decision with DualShockers.

Brian stressed that he is "committed to feature parity between platforms," so it's probably a good idea to not take the focus away from that with yet another port.

That's super cool. I hope he went the extra mile to ensure the Wii version is outputting at 240p so it'll look it's best on a CRT.

That's uh.. that's kinda cool. The previous game had a DOS port (or at least a tech demo), right?

At this point it might be marketing for the game across all platforms rather than something that will make a whole lot of money, but fun nontheless!

For what it's worth I totally expect a Wii version of Just Dance 2021 this year despite what they previously said. During the virus a lot of Wii accessories were bought on Amazon and copies of the game as people were finding ways to exercise, they'd be daft not to do at least 1 more in the current climate

This seems like a game that'd actually be cool to play in 240p on a CRT, so the Wii version being there is dope.

I like this guy doing this. More developers should make ports for dead systems, it's fun. If I was in Europe I would buy this game to support this craziness.
