MixedBag Games / forma.8
Yesterday, MixedBag Games made a couple of stealth announcements on Twitter:
- forma.8 is not coming to Wii U anymore… but to both the Wii U and the New Nintendo 3DS! The best part? It will be cross-buy! Unfortunately, there’s a catch: the New Nintendo 3DS version may be up and running at the moment, but it’s clearly not ready yet. It will come at a later date (before the end of the year). As for the Wii U version, development is almost complete, and news will be coming soon.
- they also have another, unannounced, game coming to the Nintendo 3DS
- the New Nintendo 3DS version of Futuridium is almost complete: it will be sent to lotcheck soon. It could be released in late-July/August if everything goes well.
