Dreamken Studios’ 2D RPG, “Whilom: Sins”, could make its way to the Wii U eShop, assuming the project’s Kickstarter campaign stretch goal is reached. If funds hit $80,000, it’ll be made for Nintendo’s console as well as the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, and PS Vita.

Whilom: Sins is planned for release in 2014.

You can find the official Kickstarter page and more about the game here. Dreamken needs $25,000 in order to receive funding.

Though I’m sure they don’t mind in the slightest, game developer/publisher Level-5 was recently forced to publish a special wallpaper with characters from many of their most popular franchises… as well as the airplane and the “porter” from AeroPorter! The 3DS download title apparently held a spot in the popularity poll that they put up to determine which characters would be drawn into the wallpaper, and so many people put down their vote for the non-living, metallic flight-body that Level-5 had to include it! The airplane managed to snag 46,263 votes, ahead of the second-place Inazuma character who pulled in 38,339, and the porter himself (a character with no face or personality, mind you) got ninth, with 17,889.

Take a look at the wallpaper above, or click here to download a full-sized version.
