Trickster Face is interested in bringing its survival horror project “Long Night” to Wii U. In an interview with 4CR, the studio said it’s something that has been considered since the game’s beginning, and while the team hasn’t fully investigated the eShop’s mechanics, they’d very much like to see a Wii U version happen.

Trickster Face said:

Yes, the Wii U release is something we’ve discussed a lot since the beginning. We haven’t fully investigated the eshop mechanics enough, but it’s definitely something we want to make a reality!

You can find Long Night on Kickstarter here. Trickster Face is looking to raise $10,000 CAD by January 15.
