Yesterday, FDG Entertainment announced that it has teamed up with The Game Atelier to make Monster Boy And The Wizard Of Booze. It’s intended to be a spiritual sequel to SEGA’s Wonder Boy series. Interestingly enough, Ryuichi Nishizawa – the creator of Wonder Boy – is providing input.

Monster Boy and the Wizard of Booze may look familiar. That’s because The Game Atelier is taking what it created with the cancelled Flying Hamster 2 project, and turning it into something new. Monster Boy And The Wizard Of Booze features a new hero and removes the hamsters. Other elements have been improved/changed as well. You can learn more in an official post here.

Monster Boy And The Wizard Of Booze is currently coming to the PlayStation 4, PC and “more” formats. It sounds like a Wii U version could happen, as FDG’s Thomas Kern told Nintendo Life the following:

It’s a pretty exciting day as we didn’t expect such an overwhelming positive response from the Internet. After all, there hasn’t been any news about the series for years.

We love the Wii U but for the moment I can’t confirm anything. It’s definitely considered as we believe Nintendo fans would appreciate the game.

Black Forest Games has continued plugging away on Dieselstormers’ development. However, the studio has been keeping quiet regarding the console release.

Black Forest previously said that Dieselstormers would make its way to Wii U. While nothing new has really been shared in this area as of late, the studio has confirmed on Twitter that its game will still head to Nintendo’s console. Black Forest first needs to finish work on the main game for PC.

Frenchy Bird was among yesterday’s new eShop releases in North America and Europe. Note that you’ll need 163MB for the download. Not too big of a file size I suppose!
