In addition to announcing that Shantae and the Pirate’s Curse will be coming to Wii U, Way Forward sat down with GoNintendo to discuss the progress of the game:

GN: Shantae and the Pirate’s Curse has been in development longer than most thought it would be. How’s the project going?

MATT: Pirate’s Curse is wrapping up nicely. We’ve been in full production for what’s approaching 2 years, with the team working at an aggressive pace. I was optimistic that we could develop the game faster than the original Shantae or Risky’s Revenge, but in the end CURSE is landing at just a hair under the development time of its predecessors. All three handheld Shantae games were self-funded, so smaller teams with longer dev times is typically how we get them done. We know that fans have been waiting a very long time for this one, and we really appreciate their understanding. I’m pleased to report that the extra time has been well spent!
