As far as we know, David Franco is a freelancer in the video game industry. Having said that, it seems that all of his previous work has been for 5th Cell, the developer behind the Scribblenauts and Drawn to Life titles.
So why is this information useful? Well, it looks like 5th Cell might be making a launch title for Wii U.
Franco listed the following games as projects he’s worked on in the past:
LATEST TITLES:
Drawn to Life, Drawn to Life: The Next Chapter, Lock’s Quest, Scribblenauts, Super Scribblenauts, Hybrid, Unannounced Wii U launch title.
Given Franco’s history with 5th Cell, one would think that the mysterious “Unannounced Wii U launch title” is being made by the studio.
