Capcom’s Hironobu Takeshita, the producer of Zack & Wiki: Quest for Barbaros’ Treasure, has strong interest in making a sequel.
Takeshita was quizzed about the possibility of a follow-up in an interview with Nintendo Power. Additionally, he was asked if there has been any consideration as to how a second game would play like on the 3DS.
Takeshita told the magazine:
“I have a great deal of interest in doing a sequel. It’s one of several IPs that I want to return to. As for Nintendo 3DS…it would be fun if people could play and solve puzzles together.”
Zack & Wiki was a critical hit, but it was not a financially successful game for Capcom. As a result, the company has been hesitant to revisit the IP.

No Nintendo Direct for North America after all
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 0 comments
This is rather odd. Nintendo of Japan is getting a Nintendo Direct with their president. So is Europe. North America, though? Nothing!
However, Nintendo of America will be providing updates on something at 11:30 PM EST. There will be news tonight and through the weekend.
IGN’s Rich George tweeted:
“Nintendo: ‘While there will not be a video specific to North America, we will be revealing info this evening and through the weekend.’ …That is shortened from NOA statement. Because… Twitter. But the gist is – no video but an announcement and some via Nintendo social.”
