Zoink has discussed the decision to bring Zombie Vikings to Wii U – and hinted at possible New 3DS port.

In a recent interview, founder Klaus Lyngeled said that interest from Nintendo fans as a big reason why the studio will be releasing its new game on the eShop. He additionally mentioned interest in releasing Zombie Vikings on New 3DS along with Stick it to the Man.

Lyngeled’s comments in full:

“Every time we’re out on the social media, and we mention Nintendo, there’s a huge following and they’re so devoted. I feel like we have to do a Nintendo console too, they’re supporting the game community and care about gameplay. With this game, since we’re doing hardcore gameplay, I want to make sure these guys try it and see if they like it since they know their s**t. That’s why I’m releasing it on Wii U, but I’d like to release it on the 3DS as well, but unfortunately our engine doesn’t support the 3DS yet. Now that the New 3DS supports Unity, we might be able to do something in the future, we’ve talked about Stick It To The Man for the New 3DS which I’d love to do. We’d love to release it this year in December, and we want to focus on playing it on the normal Wii Remote so four people can play it simultaneously. I’m not sure we’re going to support the GamePad because it may not make sense, it’s more important to play it with four players.”

Polygon recently caught up with Nintendo’s Damon Baker for a chat about all things indie. Baker talked about how the company doesn’t tend to buy exclusives, its openness to multiplatform titles, and more.

You’ll find a summary of what was shared below. Head on over here for the full discussion.

On how Nintendo as a whole has responded well to the different Nindie initiatives…

“Fortunately, the company has been really receptive of it. They’ve embraced the opportunities that we’ve presented to them, and they see the justification.”

On how Nintendo has been supporting indies for a long time, even though the company doesn’t always get the headlines for it…

“I think the other platforms have come out there, and they’ve done a really good job of amplifying their independent support message, and they’ve gained a lot of traction and a lot of visibility for that.”

“I think we’ve stuck to our strategy for some time. We were the first console to promote self-publishing and to allow it on our platforms. And that was going back to the WiiWare and the DSiWare days.”

RCMADIAX has been known for its work on Wii U. But in 2016, the studio plans on adding the New 3DS as one of its supported platforms.

RCMADIAX stated the following earlier today:

There is one thing to keep in mind about today’s news. RCMADIAX games on New 3DS is probably a long ways off, as we won’t be seeing anything until Q4 2016 at the earliest.

@curbles Too early to talk specifics, earliest anything would be available is likely Q4 2016.
