Hereby it is manifest that during the time men live without a common power to keep them all in awe, they are in that condition which is called war; and such a war as is of every man against every man.

Wayforward has confirmed Shantae Risky's Revenge Director's Cut (Wii U) will be out in Europe next week (March 24), US announcement "soon".

Risky's Revenge is the second game in the series, originally released on DSiWare. The one that's already on Wii U (Pirate's Curse) is game #3, the still-not-out-yet Kickstarter game (Half-Genie Hero) is game #4.

What does the Director's Cut change? I enjoyed Pirate's Curse and wouldn't mind playing some more shantae.

If it's anything like the PC version, here are the changes from the DSiWare version:

- Improved warp statue system - instead of only being able to warp between two linked statues, you can warp to any unlocked statue
- HD portrait artwork
- Unlockable "Magic Mode" for second playthroughs with an alternate costume, which gives you more magic at the cost of taking double damage

This is, sadly, more important to me than bettering myself.

I just found an old 2000 Wii Points card in a drawer. Does it directly translate into $20, or is there more effort involved in redeeming it?

It's only redeemable on the Wii Shop Channel. The only way to make use of it for the Wii U eShop is to use those points to buy something on the Wii Shop Channel that's also on the eShop and then buy the thing from the eShop at a discount.

It's even weirder in Mighty Switch Force where the playable character is like a weird noseless blob who they none the less fanservice the hell out of, including letting you see her in her underwear if you finish the entire game.

I guess there is no way to fix the blurriness on the Wii U virtual console, huh?

I was hoping to simply my emulation needs but I just bought Super Mario Bros. 2 on Wii U VC and it's horribly blurry :(

Nope. In order to recreate the RF/Composite experience, pretty much all VC games have a darkening filter that adds some slight blur.

N64 games are double dark in the wiiu emulation. It's more bizarre than the nes or snes titles.

The weirdest thing about the NES emulation to me is the volume is either really low or really high compared to the rest of the system. Can't remember which. Have to turn my TV volume up about ten bars.

SNES games look bright and crisp though so I'm not sure that's intentional for NES VC.
