Don’t know what Shantae is? Check out the first two games of the series, available on Nintendo 3DS eShop; Shantae & Shantae Risky’s Revenge! A third Shantae game is coming very soon as well, also for the Nintendo 3DS!

This title currently on Kickstarter, Shantae: Half-Genie Hero, is poised to bring Shantae to the level of attention, and budget, it deserves.

Sounds great, right? But don’t just take my word for it, have a look yourself!
