Varia Games could bring its Metroid-inspired indie title ReVeN to the 3DS.

The team told PureNintendo that it’s “looking into the 3DS” as a potential platform for the game.” “It would be amazing to implement our game’s mechanics to the touch screen and the 3D effects of the little handheld,” Varia said.

ReVeN is currently slated for the Wii U eShop. A Kickstarter for the project can be found here.

Unsung Story: Tale of the Guardians will feature a story made up of “mature concepts such as greed and lust, alliances and betrayal, and intrigue and espionage” – among other elements. Better yet, the plot will stay true to Yasumi Matsuno’s previous works.

Playdek said in a recent Kickstarter update:

“We have seen some of you ask for a story that included mature concepts such as greed and lust, alliances and betrayal, and intrigue and espionage to name a few… it looks like you guys are getting exactly what you wished for from Mr. Matsuno!”

Plakdek is expected to share more information on Unsung Story: Tale of the Guardians throughout the week, highlighted by a video Q&A on Thursday.

Natsume announced a January release window for Yumi’s Odd Odyssey last month. While that target won’t be met, we should be seeing Agatsuma’s platformer in the US very soon.

Natsume tells us that Yumi’s Odd Odyssey is unlikely to hit the eShop this Thursday. For now, the publisher guesses the game will be out “in about 2-3 weeks.” That’d put Yumi’s Odd Odyssey at around a mid-February launch.
