New Little King's Story skips Wii due to lack of touch screen, HD graphics and online
A portion of a Game Informer interview with Assistant producer Takanori Murayama...
GI: What factors led to the decision to create the sequel for the Vita instead of the Wii?
TM: There are three reasons for this. One, the using of the touch panel made the game’s controls much easier. The touch panel enables the users to scout dozens of citizens together which improved the operations. Two, the high resolution graphics enabled to depict many characters at once inside the screen. The movement and the depiction of the many characters in its world is what makes this game fun. Last but not least, the network affinity is high, therefore it is easy to buy avatars and other items on the PS Store. In the PS Store, users can purchase additional items which is another appealing point.
______________
To me, it sounds like all those reasons were also solved by the Wii U! Maybe we can convince the devs that a Wii U port is needed!
