Nintendo hasn’t said much about Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker since they announced the game at this year’s E3 Expo. But today, the publisher confirmed that Captain Toad will march on to the Wii U on December 5 with a budget price of $39.99.
Captain Toad is based on a series of minigames that originally appeared in last year’s Super Mario 3D World. But for Captain Toad, they’ve expanded beyond those simple rotating levels and will now include bigger adventures like “exploring a haunted house or escaping a smoldering volcano.” I gotta admit, I didn’t think little Toad had it in him.
Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker will be the first game released by Nintendo with Toad in a starring role. And the game will get even bigger in 2015 when Nintendo will patch in support for their upcoming line of Amiibo figures.
