Super Meat Boy is a platform game developed by Team Meat and is the successor to Edmund McMillen’s and Jonathan McEntee’s flash game, Meat Boy, originally released on the Newgrounds website in October 2008. (Info from Wikipedia)

The Developers originally announced a release of the game for every major console and computer: Xbox360 Live Arcade, PS3 PSN, WiiWare, PC and MAC…

The Xbox360 Version was released in October 20, 2010.

The PC Version was released in November 30, 2010, as downloadable on the Steam WebStore.

The Mac Version was released December 2, 2010, on Direct2Drive

The Wiiware and Playstation Network versions have been cancelled

This small article will show the WiiWare’s version progress. Super Meat Boy on Wiiware was taking a pretty long time to be made and had some delayings. After some time, Super Meat Boy has been officially cancelled because of Size Limit problems on Wiiware. The Wiiware service allows to publish games on the store on 40MB Size Limit, sadly, Super Meat Boy was much more then that. It also has been cancelled because they were not able to find a publisher.

Some trailers and preview videos have beta differences:

IGN’s Preview

Comments and shows more stuff, like World Map (which is different of the PC and Xbox version, and other stuff)

Team Meat is thinking for develop Super Meat Boy as a Retail Version, with extras and other add-ons (which wasn’t to be come on the WiiWare Version) or on the upcoming 3DS. They only need a Publisher, as they said:

If we decided to try to find a publisher & do a boxed version for $20 (with extras) but come out later on the Wii, would you hold out?
