\"Commander<\/a><\/figure>\n

Loading up the Wii U eShop doesn’t tend to result in many new games or exciting updates these days, but thanks to a release arriving on the system’s digital shelves today, owners of Nintendo’s discontinued system can finally get stuck into something new.<\/p>\n

Well, we say new, but the game in question is Commander Keen in Keen Dreams: Definitive Edition<\/a><\/strong>, a title that launched on Switch<\/a> earlier this year and one that was already a remake of a DOS game from the ’90s. Still, the Wii U will take what it can get<\/em>.<\/p>\n

And in all seriousness, it’s great to see a publisher taking the time to launch a game on the Wii U at all. This Definitive Edition release reworks the original and adds new features, levels and more:<\/p>\n

Commander Keen is back. In the modernised Definitive Edition of the lost episode “Keen Dream”, Keen has to fend off a nasty nightmare about evil vegetables. The Definitive Edition features full widescreen support, twelve all-new levels – doubling the length over the 1990 original – and a full music score. The game structure has been reworked to make the game a more modern experience without sacrificing any of the original charm!<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
