You may have noticed how VD-Dev’s website contains a Wii U logo. Does that mean the IronFall team has plans to develop for Nintendo’s home console in addition to the 3DS? Unfortunately, that would be a no.
We did receive confirmation from VD-Dev that the studio is authorized to make games for Wii U and PS Vita. However, there are “no plans” to get involved with either system at this time.
Pricing is set at 19,800 yen. The bundle launches on November 7.
Pokemon X/Y players have found a couple of references to Hoenn in the game. This discovery, along with other hints, has sparked speculation over the possibility of a future Pokemon Ruby/Sapphire remake.
Pokemon Red/Blue were remade as FireRed and LeafGreen for the Game Boy Advance. Then came HeartGold/SoulSilver for the DS. Might Ruby and Sapphire be next for the 3DS?
