Nintendo Announces Pushmo World For Wii U

Nintendo has announced that a new Pushmo game will be coming to the Wii U this June. Pushmo World includes puzzle-creation tools and a rewind feature to prevent frustration.

The game has a deceptively simple gimmick, where you solve puzzles by pushing and pulling blocks around. Those blocks can then be used as platforms to reach goals. Players can design their own puzzles, too, which you can see in the Japanese trailer for the game below.

Nintendo of America has confirmed that the game will be coming to North America's eShop on June 19, and it will cost $9.99. In the meantime, Nintendo is discounting the price on the 3DS games Pushmo and Crashmo from today at 11 a.m. Central until June 13. During that period, Pushmo will cost $4.69 and Crashmo will be available for $5.99.

Our Take
This is one of those games that I never got around to playing. Bryan had a great time with the 3DS version, and our tastes generally align. It might be a great game to have installed on my 3DS during E3, for when I've got a few minutes between meetings.
