The Wii U eShop game '90s Arcade Racer is slated to finally release in the middle of 2014, according to publisher Nicalis. Originally slated for release late last year, developer Antonis Pelekanos and the team at Nicalis have run into some problems with porting the Unity-developed game from PC to Wii U.

"Without getting into minutia that we're probably not allowed to share in great detail, some things that worked on PC couldn't be ported exactly Wii U without having affecting how the game performs on the Nintendo console–and probably other consoles, too," Pelekanos and Nicalis' Tyrone Rodriguez said in a blog post. "However, we're very happy with the results."

The pair noted that the Wii U version is running in 720p at 60 frames per second. They're also hoping that 30 racers will be able to compete against each other at once online.

'90s Arcade Racer was a Kickstarter success almost a year ago, with the game originally due out November 2013. In addition to PC and Wii U, it is also coming to Mac, Linux, Android, and iOS.
