Mistwalker would like to make more RPGs for Wii U, but has nothing planned for yet
As of late, Hironobu Sakaguchi has been focusing his efforts on the iOS title “Party Wave”. While it’s unclear if he’ll once again make meaty console games in the near future, Sakaguchi and team behind The Last Story are looking forward to the Wii U. Moreover, they’d like to make some RPGs for the system.
Lead designer Takuya Matsumoto has said that the GamePad’s screen “will add another level of strategic elements into the action-RPG.” The only issue is that nothing is planned yet.
Here’s how Matsumoto responded when asked if The Last Story could lead to more action-RPGs for Wii U:
“The development team and Sakaguchi-san are looking forward to making more, especially for the Wii U because it has another [screen] right in front of you that will add another level of strategic elements into the action-RPG. So we are really looking forward to it, but we haven’t really planned anything.”
Alright, Nintendo…get to work. Time to ask Mistwalker for some Wii U RPGs.
