Chicken Wiggle (3DS eShop) will be released later this year (in Q1, if everything goes well).
6180 the moon
6180 the moon is a unique game that makes full use of the GamePad screen on Wii U, forcing players to alternate between the second screen and the TV. If you’ve ever thought this would make a great Nintendo 3DS game, you’re in luck: Turtle Cream announced last week that 6180 the moon was indeed coming to the New Nintendo 3DS in the near future (it was even playable at the Taipei Game Show 2017).

IARC
Thanks to the IARC (International Age Rating Coalition), getting digital-only games rated for release on the Nintendo eShop (and other store fronts) is extremely easy, and “free”. No more long-winded and costy procedures: now, all you have to do is send a survey, and… that’s pretty much it.
And earlier this month, the Minister for Communications (in Australia) has formally approved the IARC tool for ongoing use in Australia, following a rather lengthy test period (12 months).
