Pixelscopic could bring Delver’s Drop to the Wii U. The company just wrapped up a Kickstarter campaign and managed to raise nearly $150,000 – double the $75,000 goal.

Delver’s Drop takes inspiration from a ton of different games – Zelda: Link to the Past, Demon’s Souls, Diablo, and a whole lot more.

Nintendo fans will be interested to hear that, even though nothing has been confirmed, Pixelscopic has been in touch with the Big N about becoming an approved developer, and the studio does have interest in bringing its project to the Wii U / 3DS eShops.

According to Pixelscopic’s Ryan Baker:

“We’re fans of the Wii U and 3DS, but we have not decided on a console between the three big platform holders. We will most likely decide this based on how well it does after the PC/Mac/Linux release, and continued fan requests for console. Honestly, we’d love to support all of them, but that would likely be a 6+ month endeavour to add to our tech and support these systems. We had made a Kickstarter stretch goal for the console port, but it looks like that will not be met by the end of our campaign. But as with all other unmet stretch goals, we will consider developing them later if the game is successful and we have continued fan interest.”

Delver’s Drop is planned for release in 2014. Perhaps we’ll see a Nintendo version next year!

And a bonus! If Miyamoto wasn’t working on video games, he’d probably continue work as an industrial designer.

“Originally, I started off as an industrial designer, and the dream of all industrial designers is to create something that sort of amazes and surprises people. I ultimately chose the path of creating video games, but if I hadn’t been creating video games, I think that and hope that I would be creating things that are similar to that. So, when I look at that as being something that perhaps I might have been able to create, but ultimately wasn’t able to because of the path that I chose, I have a tendency to look at the person that created that thing as a potential rival. So that’s sort of where that thought came from.”

There hasn’t been much news about Ace Attorney 5 since TGS 2012. After many months of waiting, a new report finally surfaced in this week’s Famitsu.

One tidbit has leaked out of the magazine up to this point. It seems that Apollo Justice will be making an appearance in the game, who will be wearing bandages on his left arm and eye. Players will see him sporting a new jacket over one of his soldiers as well.

We’ll update this post with any additional details that come in.
