Zordix just released Aqua Moto Racing 3D on the eShop this week. A Wii U entry could be what’s next for the series.

Speaking with Gamers XTREME, Zordix CEO Matti Larsson expressed interest in producing Aqua Moto Racing “in a larger format”. Larsson imagines that a Wii U eShop entry would have features such as online tournaments and rankings.

“Wii U is a natural next step for us”, Larsson said.

“I can’t deny that it would be a dream to realize the Aqua Moto Racing game in a larger format. Possibly with online tournaments, ranking and all that goes with that. Wii U is a natural next step for us and if we decide to do it, I’ll make sure to share some information early on about development.”

Nintendo president Satoru Iwata made a few comments earlier this year suggesting that he could resign if the company continued to experience poor sales performances. Iwata never actually used the word “resign”, but his remarks pointed in that direction somewhat – and the Japanese media also pointed to the possibility of Iwata stepping down.

But no need to worry: it doesn’t sound like Iwata has any intentions to resign.

During the company’s latest investor’s meeting, someone asked the CEO directly if he would leave if Nintendo is unable to reach his “commitment” to hit a business profit goal of ¥100 billion.

Iwata responded: “I don’t recall saying I’d resign.” He also said that Nintendo should be focusing on achieving its goal rather than concentrating on failure.

Nintendo had been engaged in a legal battle over the Wii MotionPlus accessory, which was thought to have infringed on one of Triton’s patents in the US. However, the patent-infringement lawsuit as been dismissed. Judge Richard A. Jones of the U.S. District Court rejected Triton’s legal arguments.

Richard Medway, Nintendo of America’s deputy general counsel, said in a statement:

“We feel vindicated by the court’s ruling. Nintendo’s track record demonstrates that we vigorously defend patent lawsuits, like the Triton lawsuit, when we believe that we have not infringed another party’s patent. Consumers respect Nintendo because we develop unique and innovative products, and because we respect the intellectual property rights of others.”
