With The Wonderful 101’s development complete, director Hideki Kamiya will soon move on to a new project. Perhaps it’ll be a Bayonetta game for 3DS.

Speaking with Siliconera, Kamiya expressed interest in creating a title based on Jeanne:

“Given the chance, I’d like to make a game based on Jeanne from Bayonetta. Something that’s not as big in scale. Something that’s portable, that you could play in quick sessions, where she’s a history teacher and the kind of fun things that could come out of a scenario like that.”

Another 3DS game Kamiya would be open to? An Okami spin-off for 3DS.

“If I could get away with it, I’d also like to come up with a spin-off of Okami, less focused on the grand idea of saving the world, but [rather] something focused on the smaller world of the fairy Issun.”
