In a new “State of the Farm” report, Natsume shared information about its upcoming slate of titles.

First, Alphadia Genesis is coming to Europe in early 2015. A North American release date is also expected sometime this month.

Natsume has also shared news about a couple of upcoming Virtual Console titles. Wild Guns (Wii U, previously known) and Legend of the River King 2 (3DS) will both be available next week.

Last but not least, Natsume has confirmed DLC for Harvest Moon: The Lost Valley. Development of extra content will begin later this year.

Inti Creates has interest in making a sequel to Azure Striker Gunvolt. However, whether or not this actually happens in the future will be determined by sales of the first game and “how active and loud the fans are”.

Inti Creates CEO Takuya Aizu told Siliconera:

Obviously, as a developer, we put our heart and soul into Gunvolt, and so the idea of doing a sequel is exciting—but that’s a kind of high-level feeling we have right now.

In terms of ideas or core concepts we’d like to include in a potential sequel, we haven’t thought that far or deep yet. The cold, hard reality is, the key things that are going to determine whether there’s a sequel or not is how Gunvolt does in terms of sales and how active and loud the fans are about there being a sequel. If those two things are in place? Sure! We’d love to do it!

It’s not too often that we’re able to obtain sales of digital games. However, a recent issue of Famitsu shared sales of one prominent 3DS eShop title, Kirby Fighters Deluxe (otherwise known as Kirby Fighters Z).

Famitsu reveals that Kirby Fighters Deluxe has sold over 20,000 copies in Japan. The magazine doesn’t make this entirely clear, but it seems that 88 percent of the games sales came from the eShop directly. The other 12 percent account for download cards purchased at retailers.
