I'll definitely be buying this... probably on the WiiU. That lets you view the minimap on the Gamepad, right?
Wii U gamepad is just the map? I love what they did with the gamepad in Shovel Knight.
Yep, per Nintendo Life's interview which I'll add to the OT:
The main difference in the Wii U version is use of the second screen. You can play the game on the second screen, or you can show the map. With the map turned on you can see a level's fog of war uncover as you run around, and it's generally a bit faster to check where you're going. Naturally, you can also touch the second screen to to scroll the map.
