New Funky Barn Screenshots for the Wii U

505 Games brings its wacky farm sim Funky Barn to Wii U, using the GamePad touch screen to manage the farm and even shake fruit from trees.

505 Games is bringing its wacky farm sim Funky Barn to the Wii U, and new screenshots show how it uses the GamePad. The touch screen lets you manage animals, equipment and buildings directly, and you can even shake the pad to shake fruit loose from your trees. It’s a small but clever example of building a game around the controller rather than bolting it on.
