SoTN sized game confirmed.

[Ack]

Hey, cool, Iga found a publisher:

505 Games

505 Games

that actually sounds like a good fit. Cool.

I didn't realize the phrase "cracking the whip" was quite so literal when Iga is in charge of your office.

505 is also involved with Indivisible, the other game I've backed via crowd-funding. Good choices on their part, and here's hoping both turn out great. I feel like they will.

I hope nobody had their hearts completely set on getting a Wii U version of this:



Wii U versions are no longer an option, but you can get a Switch version instead. Or one of the other platform versions.

Sure hope they don't decide to drop Vita next.

[Tanooki]

If Vita is still sold they'll probably keep it as long as you can see a measurable blip of PSN sales for it as well, but if they don't finish before it seems to vanish from the shelves or a place like Gamestop or Target completely then I'd imagine it's toast.

Good on them for dumping the WiiU release for Switch as the system is dead, the zombie remains shambling along due to Zelda until someone just removes the brain and finishes the job (ie: Zelda sales wane.) Last I can remember they haven't made the hardware in awhile and were working to just stuff out what was left of it, perhaps why it's not found new on shelves anymore really. Seems like a waste of money/time making game for dead hardware, but then again people still do for the Dreamcast and Neo-Geo platforms, but at least they have a huge fanbase behind it.

Now I just have to decide whether to stick with the PS4 version, or switch to another platform.

I'd already moved off the Wii U, since I'd bought a PS4 and had concerns on how well the game would run on that system anyway. I think the Switch will have a better shot at running it well, but I still suspect the lead platform is effectively PS4.

[Michi]

No Wii U version is sad, but not unexpected. I'm just glad they automatically transfered all Wii U backers to Switch. Means I don't have to do anything

I moved my physical copy to the Switch and am keeping my digital copy on Steam.
