I object to your claims
Hey, remember that platform game that started life as a Sonic fangame but then became it's own thing? Aka Planet Freedom? Well, it's coming to the Wii U;

IGN
 
The previously Kickstarted indie platformer Freedom Planet will be making its way to the eShop on Wii U, developer GalaxyTrail announced.

Freedom Planet strongly resembles 2D Sonic, but the developers have made it clear that it is more of a successor than a clone.

We were definitely inspired by Sonic when developing the characters and stages for Freedom Planet, but they are not exactly the same thing," they wrote in their FAQ. Its Steam reviews seem to corroborate that; they're overwhelmingly positive.

Freedom Planet was originally released in 2014 and is currently available as a direct PC or Mac download and on Steam. No Wii U release date has been set, but GalaxyTrail member Stephen DiDuro says they're aiming for the end of the year. If you need another acclaimed indie platformer on your Wii U in the meantime, we highly recommend Shovel Knight.

Thoughts on this? Personally, I can't wait. I've heard very good things about this game and I've always wanted to see what all the hype was about. Now I can actually play it! ^_^
