Renegade Kid has finally unleashed a few details about Treasurenauts, which was first uncovered through a trademark filing.

Studio co-founder Jools Watsham confirmed to Operation Rainfall that Treasurenauts will be a 2D game. Additionally, it’s being made on the same engine powering Mutant Mudds.

Treasurenauts is only for the 3DS eShop at the moment. But Watsham did say that a Wii U version is a possibility.

“It’s going to be for the 3DS, potentially for the Wii U, and from what I can say right now is that it’s 2D, and it’s using Mudd‘s engine.”

Nicalis has been a fairly big supporter of Nintendo’s online shops and has previously teamed up with developers to help release their games. So if anyone were to make Fez happen on a Nintendo system, Nicalis would likely be the go-to company. There is one significant barrier, however: studio head Tyrone Rodriguez doesn’t appear to be too interested in the possibility.

When it was suggested that Nicalis get in touch with creator Phil Fish and Nintendo’s Dan Adelman, Rodriguez instead said that he would “much rather work on Monaco or Spelunky for a Nintendo console.”

Rodriguez tweeted:

THQ transferred the WWE gaming licence to Take-Two Interactive before shutting down. There was a brief period of time when the latest entry, WWE ’13, was unavailable in stores as Take-Two subsidiary 2K Sports took reigns of the franchise.

Everything is now back to the way it was. WWE ’13 can be purchased once again, and the game is exactly the same – only the publisher logo on the box has changed.
