Pokemon GO will soon be ending support for Apple devices that cannot upgrade to iOS. These include iPhone 5 and iPhone 5c models.

You can read the full statement from Niantic and listing of impacted devices below.

Atooi released the 2D platformer Chicken Wiggle, complete with a level editor, for 3DS last year. Since the system was late in its lifecycle and Switch had been soaking up the limelight, it was a bit overlooked.

Atooi is now gauging interest in a potential version of Chicken Wiggle for Switch that would be supported on Kickstarter. Founder Jools Watsham said on Twitter that new HD artwork would be included.

As for the Kickstarter campaign, it would be “as low and reasonable as possible.” The funding goal would be in the range of five figures.
