That tidbit comes from Sony Computer Entertainment president Andrew House, who was speaking with Eurogamer. He told the site:

“Our big opportunity is to welcome back an audience much earlier in the lifecycle that possibly bought into the Wii previously. Whether it’s based on this is a really good all-round entertainment device for a family in addition to having great games, our consumer data suggests some of those people are already coming in now and that’s what’s contributing to the really great sales we’ve had.”

The Binding Isaac is something that could still come to the 3DS. On his official blog, creator Edmund McMillen gave a simple “no” when asked if the game is no longer a possibility for Nintendo’s platform.

Keiji Inafune has shown some interest in going the Mega Man Legends-style route with Mighty No. 9.

Inafune, fielding a question about the possibility during a Q&A session at SGC 2014, said that he’d “love to see” Mighty No. 9 go in “any directions that would fit the series”. He then asked attendees if they’d back a project that incorporates the same kind of gameplay as Mega Man Legends – which was met with a roaring cheer.

Inafune’s translator ended by saying, “he’s got nothing to announce today but the fact is he’s heard all of you shout out like that. He’s definitely putting that in his pocket and taking it back with him.”
