The retro-inspired game from UFO Interactive is coming very soon.

Johnny Kung Fu, the third eShop game from UFO Interactive, is coming to North America on July 12, according to Nintendo's website.

Johnny Kung Fu is an action/fighting game that features 16-bit era graphics in 3D on the top screen, and Game & Watch-esque graphics on the bottom screen, as you go between the two. I'll let the game's official description do the rest of the talking:

Johnny Kung Fu puts you into the Kung Fu garb of a seemingly everyday man Johnny. The local organized crime group Mr. Wang, led by the mysterious man known as Mr. Wang, seems to have a bone to pick with Johnny and has captured his girlfriend Paula. Knowing that an ambush awaits him, Johnny chases the kidnappers into one of Mr. Wang’s hideout towers regardless. Will Johnny be able to save Paula? Or will the Mr. Wang Gang prevail?

There is currently no word on a European release. UFO's debut eShop game, Samurai Sword Destiny, only came to Europe a few weeks back, which was five months after its North American release. Their second game, Zombie Slayer Diox, has yet to get a release date in Europe.
