Shantae and the Pirate's Curse -- which released earlier this year on 3DS -- is coming to the Wii U eShop in North America on December 25, and is coming "soon" to Europe, developer WayForward announced today.
The 2D platformer will cost $20 USD in North America. Pricing for other regions is unknown at this time.
The Wii U version will include HD character portraits from Mega Man developer Inti Creates, the unlockable Pirate Mode, multiple endings, and support for both the Classic Controller Pro and Wii U Pro Controller. The game also supports Off-TV Play, allowing you to play on the Wii U GamePad.
