Go! Go! Kokopolo could be getting a sequel on the 3DS eShop. The game’s creator, Keith Webb, seems to have significant interest in making a followup.

Webb is currently gauging interest for a possible sequel. The new title would feature new bosses, levels, and more.

It also sounds like the game would be available for a lower price than its predecessor. Go! Go! Kokopolo can be purchased through DSiWare for 800 points ($8).

Zelda 3DS isn’t as far along as we originally thought. That’s because Nintendo is still considering what path to take for the game.

Right now there are discussions taking place as to whether the next Zelda will focus on A Link to the Past or Majora’s Mask, the latter of which would be a remake.

Shigeru Miyamoto recently revealed:

“We haven’t quite decided yet, whether we’re going to do A Link to the Past, because there’s also the possibility of doing a remake of Majora’s Mask. This is something we’ve certainly been talking about and doing a little bit of experimenting with, to figure out which way we’re going to go.”

Additionally, Miyamoto commented on how the 3DS and Wii U provide “lots of good opportunities in terms of thinking about which Zelda game is going to be best for which purpose.”

“We have so many goals right now. We’re always looking at expanding our audience and giving people the opportunity to get their hands on 3DS and see what kind of fun gaming experiences they can have. And now, we’re also tasked with pushing the Wii U. So we have lots of good opportunities in terms of thinking about which Zelda game is going to be best for which purpose.”

We’ll have to wait “just a little while longer” for specific information about Zelda 3DS. Hopefully something will be ready for next year’s E3.

Another piece of good news coming from Cindy Gordon, vice-president of corporate affairs at Nintendo of America, concerns the digital release of Wii U and 3DS games. Apparently there are plans to make “every” title for both platforms available through both digital and retail means.

This is something that Nintendo has discussed in the past, but another confirmation is welcome.

Gordon said:

“What we said is that every game for the Wii U, and this is true for the Nintendo 3DS too, will be available in both packaged as well as digital. It’s really about choice. What I remember as a parent, I prefer the download because I won’t lose the disk. But some people thrive on [having the physical game], to each his own.”

Before Nintendo’s E3 2012 media briefing kicked off, a rumor surfaced from Nikkei suggesting that a new 3DS model with a bigger screen would be introduced. Obviously that didn’t happen, but quite a few gaming enthusiasts believe it’s inevitable.

However, when Shigeru Miyamoto was presented with Nikkei’s “3DS XL” rumor, he hinted that a makeover may not be in the cards. That’s because Miyamoto is “satisfied with the 3DS hardware as it is.” Instead, it seems as though Nintendo will be shifting its attention to the handheld’s successor.

Miyamoto told IGN:

“I really feel like I’m satisfied with the 3DS hardware as it is. I feel like it’s the best for this generation. What we’re thinking about right now is probably going to be for a future generation of handheld.”
