Nocturnal is working on its first Wii U title, Flowerworks HD: Follie’s Adventure. The indie developer could create more titles for the console, but the future is entirely dependent on how Flowerworks HD performs.

The studio’s Michael Shamgar explained to Nintendo Life that Nocturnal currently has its devkits on loan. As a result, “we need to purchase them if we are to continue with development,” he said. That means Flowerworks will probably need to reach a certain threshold before more Wii U titles are confirmed – which could include an almost-finished “epic RPG” and sequel to Timegap-X.

Shamgar also briefly touched on potential 3DS support. Unfortunately for fans of the handheld, Nocturnal doesn’t have any plans for the system at the moment.

After the initial news regarding Gundam: Try Age SP, a few details about the 3DS project have leaked out of Famitsu.

Gundam: Try Age SP is indeed based on the real-time strategy, trading card-based arcade title. Players will be building platoons based on a set of three Mobile Suit cards and another set of three separate pilot cards. Gundam Build Fighters, Gundam UC, Z Gundam, and the original Mobile Suit Gundam will be represented in the game. Local multiplayer support is confirmed.

Gundam: Try Age SP launches in Japan on July 11 for 5,690 yen. Development is currently 65 percent complete. Those who purchase a first-print copy will receive a set of trading cards that can be used in the arcade version.
