The charming Wind-up Knight 2 is probably the Wii U highlight of this week’s eShop update, but there’s a couple of other pieces of content worth checking out too.

The 3DS gets Garfield Kart and Brave Tank Hero for instance, and the creepy Wii title Pandora?s Tower gets released as a downloadable Wii U game as well.
