Radical Fish Games’ 2D action-RPG Cross-Code could make its way to the Wii U eShop. The indie dev is making the game for PC through HTML5, which, with the arrival of Nintendo Web Framework and other tools, is now a possibility for the system.

For now, Radical Fish Games is focusing on completing Cross-Code for PC. The team does have some interest in bringing the title to the Wii U, so it’s something that can be considered once the main game wraps up development.
